If traction is at all compromised, the front brake is about as quick a way to get it on its side as any. Ive done it twice & watched my SIL do it on wet clay. I swear the thing accelerated when he hit the front brake..I guess what it did was stop slowing down, IDK, It sure was quick, tho, 32 feet / second is some acceleration. So, if we fall at a rate of acceleration that is 32'/sec/sec, doesnt that mean we fall 16 feet in the 1st second & at the end of that second, we are moving at 32'/second? So, at the end of the 2nd second, having started in at 32'/second, then during that second, wouldnt the faller fall another 48 feet? Being 1/2 way between the start velocity & end velocity of 64 '/sec?
I guess thats why I always thot stilts were cool, but not something Id mess with..
