The first person to do this was Anthony Gobert to pass Franci Chilli on the last lap of a World Superbike Race at Donnington...it looked off the wall insanely awesome just like this guys effort.

Way to go :-)

[Hboy791]

that was tight

[newtthemighty]

Just like I used to do it on my Rupp minibike around the apple tree in the back yard when I was in the 5th grade. At least that's what I thought.

[Trolletn1]

omfg!!!

[jaclynclarke]

alrite christian,nice ridin mate,ive bin to watch you a few times,look brilliant.you done well for yourself,its chris from school,heard your ridin in streetfighter series now.

[melancholyrock]

that was the Donington track i saw.. the first guy was great!

[aussietimbo83]

interesting he isnt sliding mid corner, backs it in(aweseome) the power slides out. smooth but not one continous slide

[MakarioSP]

BEAUTIFUL

[bagsey34]

Awsome riding Chris. If you have a slipper clutch and there is no engine braking then how do you make the back slide on corner entry. I thought it was engine braking that made it do that????

[squiddon21]

The slipper clutch doesn't totally get rid of the engine braking, it's still there, just needs less work on the clutch manually and generally gives a smoother slide. It's kinda a combination of everything (Engine braking, rear brake, front brake and the actual motion of putting the bike into the corner.

[squiddon21]

Most people are suprised to know but one of the most important parts for me is the front brake. With it you can contrl how much weight is on the rear wheel and produse enough deceleration that the rear automatically wants to overtake the front, and then you get a slide

[berfagosub]

great sliding

[OlivierV9000]

1 woord ! Geil !

[ingiogazzo]

e ba, o calloneddu....lo faccio a una ruota!!!

[agalmata1]

NICE SLID !

[WILDFXX]

Hi  Christian...

Great slide bud ..

Are you on Visordown ?

[squiddon21]

Hey cheers. Yeah I go on quite often but I don't post

[squiddon21]

Hi there. Just wanted to help you all out. There is no traction control at all on any of my bikes (Only my right hand lol) and I have never ridden with any form of traction control. I run an STM slipper clutch which makes the bike much smoother when sliding in but exactly the same can be done without a slipper. Glad your all loving the Supermoto

[flangmasterj]

Love your riding style Christian. Just watched the Supermoto of Nations. You were flying. Good luck in the future.

[markovec33]

My bad then about the TC!

Hatts off to your riding

[runisle]

Much more fun on the SM. What a slide. Ditch the road bike !

[Spykeri]

He sucks with that road bike.

[squiddon21]

Your right, the road bike bit didn't look so good but we only did that one corner for about 10 minutes just to get the pictures for a magazine and we were on stone cold tyres which never helps. I have ridden a road bike a few times. I got within 1.5 seconds of the lap record at a World Championship circuit in Spain on a 600 and that was only the 3rd time I've ever been on a road bike so I don't suck :P

[Spykeri]

I have also a "road" bike, well it's made for racing. It's Honda RS 125..

[DizzyRebel]

No traction control... and proper supermoto racers dont use slipper clutches either. That is proper supermoto, iddon was in world S1 class this season too you peenarse.

[markovec33]

EVERY SM racer uses a slipper clutch -.-

A lot of world championship riders use TC -.-

Try writing an e-mail to a team or something and see... retard

[markovec33]

EVERY rider on the world champ. has a slipper clutch -.-

And yes iddon has got traction controll -.-

You cant ride at the top without that clutch...

retard

[DizzyRebel]

I work for offroad aprilia uk, alongside team halsion aprilia lincoln. I know what goes in the bikes and top riders dont like to use slippers. I know because i built a fair few of the bikes that ran in this years british S1 and lower classes to order. He does not have traction control either, nor does warren.

Use facts to back up your claims mate, and dont comment on something you only watch on tv :)

[BartuWTS]

The best drift!!! Grate !!!

[jokerhallowie]

Oh yeah thats SuperMoto FUCK OFF Crosser SuperMoto is the best of the World Supermoto For Live !!!!!!

[Spykeri]

I thought that he was going to fall, but no. That's supermoto! Sliding! :PP

[Superlomax]

orco zio!

[DavidelloK6]

da urlooooo

[rockinwallyz]

if you listen close you can hear the peg deck out in the first slide, a bit before the apex... nice

[markovec33]

Damn that's some skill...

By the way slippers don't slide on their own, you still need quite a bit of skill for this :P

Wondering if he has traction controll??

[instagata]

its the clutch lever ;)

[markovec33]

Clutch?? He doesnt slide with the clutch and he doesn't use it out of the corner...

[instagata]

He uses the clutch to initiate the slide then will feather it before powering out of the corner

[Recce80]

damn

[oliverjre]

holy....fukin....shit! backing it in is easy these days with slipers, but drifting out? with a dirt bike? dam good riding

[tryckluft]

looks like Donington

[RickyJ46]

Forza Aprilia !!!
