Just as when riding on dirt or pavement, it's all about the modulation. It's not that hard to ride without locking up your brakes. (which you shouldn't be doing unless you are wanting to skid anyhow)
well maybe the tires I've worked with aren't a good indication, but when I used to live in Canada and ride in the snow, I could still easily lock up the front with V's
