Still I am not surprised.
In all of the aircraft that I’ve flown during the last 33 years:

- the application of a bootfull of rudder during otherwise coordinated flight results in skidding away from the direction of the applied rudder

- failure to set the trim properly results in skidding away from the direction the rudder is miss-trimmed.

Perhaps all those aircraft are unique in that respect.

There is a difference between slipping and skidding, and there are consequences of the difference. You should research the issue. You might learn something.
