Brake slide to power slide. I do this alot. When it's dry, slick and dusty, the bike is gonna slide unless you ride sedate. I find this technique very usefull, but you gotta practice all the time because conditions change and you gotta be able to adjust. I can generally do feet up brake slides to about 75 degrees and then finish up with the clutch and throttle. Every so often I lowside, but I'm going so slow by the time the bike goes down, I am ready and I pick it right up and continue on.
