It is quite hard to lock the front going straight. A [edit] stoppie while spectacular is a quite simple trick. I basically did a couple the second time I rode a bike. Unintentional at that.

One can do a lowside, that is losing traction (not even locking, but just overspeeding and then braking, even engine-braking) in a turn. But this point is basically the first that must be taught: how to enter and exit turns properly.

I think ADAC is just being lazy / or too much ass-covering. But I don't know. I'm self-taught and not in Germany.
