"Learning" how to fall has some merit, for sure. But who would argue that it isn't always better to avoid a crash in the first place? Crash avoidance is where the focus should be.

That's why threads like these where crashes are analyzed after the fact are helpful. Others can learn how to avoid a similar fate.

Some riders are able to go years, even decades without a wreck. Then there are others who have lots of experience rolling with the crashes. Maybe they're better at falling, but it seems to me they're doing something wrong.
