As a matter of interest, on which surface are you most prone to groundlooping, grass or 'hard'?

Hard is far less forgiving. The drag of grass on the wheels helps it to stay straight on the roll out. And if you land a little sideways on grass no one need know. On hard, there will be a sqeaking of tyres and a nasty lurch.
