Ride the back brake.
Thought I'd share for those who don't know.
During really slow really sharp turns, ie U-Turns, ride the back brake and turn like you normally would. This makes the bike feel ALOT more stable at slow speeds, and in return, you can make the turn alot sharper and faster. Something about the gyroscopic motion of the engine turning faster in order to turn the wheel against the force of the brake that keeps it more balanced. Anyways, it works, and it won't eat your back brake either cause the fastest you should employ this technique is 10-15mph.
I don't see many people use this. I didn't believe it when I first read it, but it's true.

Nah, Im all about the squid U-turn method.
I just coast real easy like into the U-turn, then I slam my front brakes and put my inside foot down on the ground to prevent me from droppin it. Then I just ease around the U-turn and punch it like im the coolest kid on the block.
Because I am.
