Huh?

There are a lot of things I don't get about driving G wagens. Driving a G Wagen offroad seems to be an art form. They are supposedly one of the top 4 offroad vehicles but driving them appears to be tricky from what I've read.
I just read a post where one guy says if he's driving his G down a slippery slope and it starts to slide he generally steers toward the slide and accelerates a little, huh? accelerates?
Then there is another post where the guy says he does extremely strong cadence braking while applying light gas intermittently if he's driving down a steep slope. Note this is not left foot braking he is referring to.
Other guys who drive offroad don't seem to use these techniques, do G wagens really require these methods?
