I don't believe that's right. Scrap says the heels act as the break. Not the lead foot, but either of the heels.
Also the way the lead leg is animated is wrong in that video. The knee is locked which is no good, too much leaning. The lead knee needs to bend too to keep the weight in the right place. Also way too much sideways leaning, whoever animated that make some pretty big mistakes.
