Skidding or sliding improperly may cause you to
lose control of this ATV. You may also regain
traction unexpectedly, which may cause the
ATV to overturn.

Learn to safely control skidding by practicing at
low speeds and on level, smooth terrain.

Skidding or Sliding

Riding Your ATV

Basic Operation & Riding

The terrain surface can be a major factor affecting turns. Skidding
during a turn is more likely to occur on slippery surfaces, such as snow,
ice, mud and loose gravel. If you skid on ice, you may lose all
directional control. To avoid skidding on slippery terrain, keep your
speed low and ride with caution.

If your ATV skids sideways during a turn, steer in the direction of the
skid. Avoid hard braking or accelerating until you have regained
directional control.
