While I think that term is WAY over used, it's probably appropriate here.

So......what's your analysis....after the fact?

I assume you got away with just a few bruises?

Would using only the rear brake have prevented a tip-over? Maybe but I doubt it.

Probably good that you didn't fight any harder to hold it up; that's sometimes how legs are broken.

Could be a good learning/teaching moment here.......I'm all ears.
