Yes, we've all had those "panic stop" moments where you thank god that you WEREN'T airborne!! I've had a few where unfortunately I wasn't able to save, either.

That's a great idea to practice panic moves in a safe enviroment.

I never realizied how critical braking technique was until I did that camp. It was scary how many of us raised our hands when asked, "how many of you have been told never to use your front brake?". So we spent a whole morning on it. Now, I just need to get discs...
