Slips

[Rickskymaster]

I have been flying my 76 non-turbo for over two years and 300 hours.
I have gone thru the POH and can find nothing on slips, one way or another.
I started using slips as a way to slow to vref speed on final and find it a very satisfactory manuver.
Also, I sometimes slip one way and then the other and do so rather quickly and abruptly, on rare occasions. I wondered if this puts to much stress on the booms and/or tail.
Any thoughts appreciated.....
