Turning a hawk in a snowless parking lot

Might be the silliest question you Hawk guys have heard, but I got to thinking of when you get into an snowless paved area where you need to turn and you cannot (Keep going forward)

How do you grab it and turn it to the right direction without it falling over?

On a 2ski, (obviously)you grab the back bumper and quickly pull it around, but if you do this on a hawk, won't it fall over?

Maybe you grab the front ski somehow?

I got to thinking about this the other day and was just wondering........
 
Just did this last week.

You grab under the seat hoist the machine like you would a dirt bike, get back on sitting towards the tail light, and ride it.
 
I think of it like a hip check, grab it by the seat roll it up on your hip and spin the back end around to the direction it needs to be in.
 
you just put your leg dawn wheight your front ski give it some gas and spin it around with the track its easy..
 
i just put some woodys 10" snocross carbides on my 503 and it turns fine on pavment. im sure when they get a bit worn they wont....i got them on ebay for 30 brand new and re-welded the studs to fit the hawk ski. i also put the snowtrackers on the outside and it made a world of difference turning in the trails. has anyone called ad b and told them to ship the skis out this way? mine came on the inside out of the box so i assumed they were supposed to be that way....thanks to whoever on here that said to put them outside!!!!!!
