Skidding is a great way to get used to your bike and helps you have more control over it. If you are able to do high angle skids it is even better prep for learning to drift. For drift I suggest a downhill corner so you can have lots of speed. It is almost impossible to actually drift on the asphalt without drift mods on your bike. The way to drift is to turn way too sharply into the turn to slide both the rear and front tires. If you are on a little grippier surface then you can TAP the brakes. This is the main difference between a drift and a skid. A skid is basically slamming the rear brake to lock the back tire up. While this is extremely effective in sliding the rear tire, you lose a huge amount of speed doing it. A drift carries the speed through the corner by keeping the tires spinning. This makes it a legitimate cornering technique if you are going way too fast. Instead of braking hard to go through the corner you can drift through it which saves you time if you are racing and speed. When you are in the slide beginners can put their foot down for more stability but it isn't as fast. Keeping your feet on the pedals is less flashy as you will get less angle but is much faster around corners. It takes a lot of practice but ultimately will improve your skills and allow you to have much more fun on the track. Just don't mess up somebody's trail overdoing it.

I do drifts without putting my legs down idk its just feels more consistent like that

I recommend to put more body weight at the front because your leaving your weight at the back which leads to a not very good skid.

[kyllepanisa]

Please make a video on how to drift/skid on concrete/road

[tokyodrifter]

Cheat code, if you do it on grass, it doesn't ruin your tyre

[phantom]

I practice on concrete it's easier (in my opinion)

[og-bvyt]

Can you only skid on trails or can you do it on asphalt or sidewalks

[thedaily]

A great way to ruin trails. Doesn't look better than a roost or a cutty.
But good job

Can he teach me how to wipe my ass and what's his favorite brand of toilet paper..🤦🏻‍♂️😂🧟‍♂️

Your foot must not touch the ground everything is wrong

[LoganPL]

Is it not common skill? Kids can do that without thinking about it so much. Just block rear wheel and that’s it. Try without using breaks, don’t block rear wheel, use your body only, it’s more fun :)

As far as I know skid and drifting is different, what the majority is doing is a skid not a drift.

I used to be able to do this on my bmx... until I friction burnt my tires out
