your right kev brown when you go bowlegged thats how you stop without messing up your wheels or cess slidering when you dont have to because the more cess slides the more wear and tear on your soulplates,its efficiant i do it every time i need to stop
its like making a pizza slice formation gauranteed from me:)

If you stop like that you'l eventually get spots. As long as the wheels can spin and they aren't locked down, you should just wear them evenly on that side. You have the right idea with harder wheels too - you'd flat spot them in one shot with soft ones!
