how do you do a skid?

Carry a stick and shove it in the spokes real quick. Remove to continue forwards motion.

A what?

I just don't wipe. Works every time.

i meen on a fixie?

while going fast, brake with the front wheel brake really fast and hard. leaning forward helps to build up the momentum, so try that.

I ride over ice on the bike path.

Use search. Read. Learn. Apply new knowledge.

But to save you about 3 minutes of agony; shift your weight forward over the front wheel, lock your legs, feel COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

****ing hell. we're in a perpetual state of deja vu.

wat do u meen lock your legs? i tryed keeping them straite but my bike just keeps moving? what am i doing wrong?

do you have clipless pedals or toe clips?

i have toe cages and the straps. i need to skid cause i want to take off my breaks

Don't wipe, ride bottomless.

Shift your weight slightly over the bars and pick your strongest leg to lock, whatever feels most comfortable to you, your body should be in an angle similar to this "\". Once you start skidding it should be easy to keep it going. Try cutting into a patch of grass or dirt or something maybe to get the locking of the legs down.

djam ya peeker in teh spooks.

You may want to gear down a little bit at first, the first time i tried riding fixed was on my boss's bike and it was geared really high, maybe thats what is causing your problem, what is your bike geared at?

People are seriously falling for this? Amazing.

do you have deep vees? skids are easier with deep vees
