For longer, curving, or uphill skinnies particularly rounded ones or
really small ones any side to side motion of your wheel will throw you
off.
I too suffer from going too fast on skinnies, but its more a habbit
thing. I can do them slowly I'm just so used to plowing through them
that I havn't taken the time to practice it.
Really all it takes to get better at either of these things is
practice. I also find that natural trials helps alot at getting rid of
stupid hops, because on some surfaces if you hop around you will loose
your grip or balance.
