Island SDs or Island speedslides are a trick performed in the Island environment. They essentially involve purposefully causing the Island car to slide, then maintaining the slide at a certain angle (Controlled by your steering value), gaining speed faster than keeping it at full grip and not sliding. Steering your car at a value around (-)20000 is the optimal steering range for Island speedsliding. Also, while performing an Island speedslide, the less you steer in whichever direction you are sliding, the less speed you will gain out of the speedslide. Turning the car too hard will cause it to lose even more speed. This is why (-)20000 is considered a sweet spot.
