try it stand up
or just hit it really fast and get low with your hand on the ground but lean into it alot and you will start sliding
just like put alot of weight on you hand thats on the ground
and the more you lean the less chance you have of falling in the oppisite direction

yea as soon as you slow down too much you stick and
the drift is over, just go faster, or expect the drift to
not last as long and compensate sooner
