Knee draggin

My advice is to definitely not try.  If you're doing things right, it will just happen, especially on a track.  As for the sensation when it's on the ground, that really depends on the surface.  If you catch the curb at turn 6 at BHF, you'll lose a leg.  Typically, it'll just skim along the surface unless you're actually using it to lighten the lode on the tyres or want your puck to smoke.

You will remember your first time, I know I do.  Hell, I remember more details about the first time I got a knee down better than any OTHER first time of note.

+1.  You'll notice a slight pulling...but pretty buttah like.  I try to avoid knee to rumble(rumple?) strip...Kind of a pussy that way.  As far as the sound it makes...sort of sounds like a skateboard going down the street on the outside... and a REALLY LOUD, "yyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh, FUCK YEAH!" on the inside.  First knee down on the Univ of EC streets...ripped jeans, bloody knee....GOD IT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!

P.S. DON'T LOOK DOWN WHEN YOU DO IT!

So that's what those roundabouts are for.:)

I can personally say that I have put a knee down while on the bike...then again it was 50cc's of pure power and I was only 12 inches from the pavement in the first place...I know i suck, just let be have my moment.

after getting the knee down you have this awesome feeling, which when you get comfortable dragging the knee, turns to an oh shit moment the first time your toe slider grinds on the pavement! i wore my slider down to the boot in one day at joliet, awesome feeling
