I always called them "Brake Slides." Back when tires were cheaper, I used to do them all the time. My first time was sort of accidental...I was doing about 80 mph approaching a stop sign, where this road ended and I was going to turn right. I purposely waited to brake until I had to, and just wanted to do a nice long skid with the back tire. As I was skiding and getting closer to the sign, I found myself wanting to turn, I ended up at a full 90 degree with the bars fully turned left. Once in that position I couldn't believe how controllable it felt. After that I couldn't stop doing them. My Dad was getting pissed about his driveway full of skid marks. I never crashed doing one. I hardly do them anymore with tire prices, and don't really want flat spots either...But they are fun!
