powerslide or you put your foot down like your pumping but you just slowly stop, or in very desperate times, i just jump off and start running

Drag you're foot, and then jump. Or, just hit hills that have a runout.

You drag your foot, and you can stop surprisingly fast...or at least enough to then jump off or power slide or carve a U-turn.

make deeper and longer carves so that you're almost riding straight across the road, then you can use your foot to slow down
