I have no trouble doing skids. It took me about 2 weeks to really put full faith in the shoes/pedals because I hadn't ridden with SPDs before.
Now I wouldn't go back, at least not on my "serious" bike.
If you're doing keo spins or tricks that you might fall while trying, I think pedals/straps are the way to go. For skids, trackstands and just mashing around, SPDs work just fine.
The retention is no issue. I was a little concerned with it just being a single velcro strap, but they do just fine. I love my shoes.
