Front wheel tuck

[Red Bandit]

What does the term "tucked the front wheel" mean. I have almost dropped my bike several times at very low speed when I grabbed the front brake whith the front wheel turned.Is this what it means?

that can be an example.

Essentially, anytime you're in a turn, and the front tire loses traction and slides is considered a front-tire-tuck.

You usually notice this by the handlebars flapping in the wrong direction, and the shit stain in your shorts.

Don't EVER touch the front brake with the wheel turned at low speed! You're incredibly lucky not to have dropped it. Tucking the front at speed just means the front slid for whatever reason (most likely too much front trail or weight transfer). It's called that 'cause it kind of folds in on you. If you save that you're a hero. And doing some laundry.
