i usually pull the clutch or in y recons case push halfway down on the shifter, coast a lil bit then apply brakes. For Emergency braking just hit something.

I used a tree one time. It was very effective for slowing me down. My A-arms are different colors now. I use the brakes now instead of trees. brake pads are cheaper then A-arms.
