I had that problem on a trail where around one corner I was too much on the front brake and it dug into a loose corner and I ate it hard. A little while later a similar corner came about and I learned, less on the fron and more on the rear, however this corner had it in for me; my back tire shot up off a root and my front dug in and once again I hit the dirt.
Since that day I keep my hand off the front brake unless its an "oh sh*t" moment where stopping is top priority...
