In a proper ted shred you would be using your toes, not your heel (although shoes with clips would get in the way) and you lock up the tire same as with any other slide, so your other foot doesn't continue to rotate.
But that picture is a perfect example of why a brake less rider should know how to ted stop. If your chain breaks or derails and you need to stop... who ya gonna call, GHOSTBUSTERS.
