Alternate name: Skidding

Traits:
* Slow acceleration/deceleration
* Gradual turning (instead of instant or near instant)

The effect is similar to running on ice without spiked boots (skidding), or on oil or similar slick surface.

This is NOT for short rolls (such as dodges), see tumbling for that.
