AS do I. Unlike others I never had a cliped in fall. BUT I attribte that to the motion used to disengage. It is the same as used for Skis. It was a motion I was used ot when I started riding. It was natural for me.
That is the biggest thing for disengaging, a motion that seems natural for the rider, and that will vary depending on the rider.
