Wrong choise
Hi PryFriends!
I drew a comic about my fall. It was not funny when I fell, but now I can laugh at it.

Cederien is right, you made the correct choice. The front brake has about 70% more stopping power. Slowing down gradually would have prevented this, but that isn’t always possible. Hopefully you are alright, and didn’t damage your hands too much.
In fact, I use both brakes to brake efficiently and quickly. I heavily pushed the front brake and fell. Now everything is fine, my hands got bruises, as I was wearing gloves. Major damage to my legs. Thanks for the concern!
Is it wrong to laugh at your pain? Great image - and we all have accidents. Best thing is to never attempt anything at all, ever lol
Falling is the basis of humor. If it's funny, I'm glad that I got it)
... that was dangerous
Yes, but now I'm fine ^^
Did the exact same thing as a teen and broke my arm, hope your recovery goes smooth!
Ouch! It's Horrible! Thanks! ^^
I believe the correct answer is in fact 'stay inside and watch anime/play video games'. Unfortunately, I wore out that lever on my bike a long time ago...
Yes, that's why I do not leave the house XD
BOTH always seems the best choice to us, when in doubt. Glad you're recovering. Get well soon!
Thank you!

Actually front brake was the right choice (better yet use both), the rear alone does very little if you need to break hard (the rear wheel starts to skid very easily as the pressure goes to the front wheel). You need to move your body backward if breaking hard though. That way you put more pressure to the rear wheel which allows you to break harder without dismounting via the handlebar. ;) I know easily said. It does take some practice I admit, but it's worth practising as you found out the hard way.
I always use two brakes to make braking effective. Need practice :)
Oh no I think most people have done that once in their life. I hope you get better soon and that your injuries are nothing permanent ❤️
Yes, I'm almost healthy and ready to ride again!
