i have never and probably would never do all that fancy skiddin' business... but on the track, years ago i rode my jamie roy just at open sessions. it had road geometery with a 43mm raked fork and i had to fight it to keep it in the turns, while my pista takes turns effortlessly... since you're having to muscle through the skid, which probably has a ton of g force, perhaps the concept has steeper and more aggressive geometry that is more responsive under load than the iro, like what is needed on the track.

either way, i'd like to see some videos of that. those pictures look killer.
