"Slipping left you're pushing right rudder aren't you?"

I guess so....Hmmm? Well then I don't know because it sure was easy to break loose to the right. Maybe the slipstream of air keeps it back?

I am really starting to think that this tailwheel breaking free in flight is really not an issue. It sure seems like even if the wheel was sideways, it would straighten out and lock pretty quickly when it touched down. Especially with the elevator pushing the tail down.
