I remember hearing from somewhere  you could force a monowheel to turn
sharper than its planted tailwheel turning radius. It was probably
something like a mini groundloop where you would add a bit of power and
perhaps release some back pressure and skid the tailwheel around a bit??

Does anyone practice this? With an XS? On pavement or only grass? 

Good results?

Are risks worth it? Like for instance if outrigger collapsed you may be
doing a lot more repair than painting a scuff? Or??
