Forward slip=straighten her up with rudder at 200ft (Boeing then changed it to "below" 200ft), use aileron to keep on the CL. Crossed controls, obviously, for a good number of seconds (feels awful), not just kick it straight, drop the wing and drop it on. Boeing changed (introduced) the Forward Slip on my machine a few years back, I suspect because what used to be "natural" was no longer so to the Magenta Children.
