fixed gear andy advised me to get 46x18 to make skidding easier. i've not done that yet, but going down the hill in greenwich park was teh first time i managed to consistently skid - i think it really is just about taking your weight right off your back wheel and putting it as far forward as you can manage (which is a lot easier going downhill). but hey, i'm only a beginner, and no real ambitions to skid massively. i'm sure it will come with time.
