Actually, it was the Voigt video that prompted this thread. Scary stuff that. Poor Jens!

Thank you for your help--I know now what I did wrong. Too much back brake, not enough front. I'm new to the drops, and am just now getting used to the difference in pressure on the brake levers. And to make matters worse, I applied more to the rear after it started to skid. (I'm ok on putting weight to the rear, I think.) Your advice might save my skin (literally) on my next attempt. Thank you again.

Any additional advice is most appreciated.
