If I had a simulator I absolutely would. It's the lesser evil in swp close to the ground. Practicing the Vuichard At 2-3k feet puts the whole flight at risk for chopping the tail boom off. There have been accidents to show. 

losing the T/R at below ETL from that height is straight up a nightmare. Innovating flight techniques is something I really enjoy, but it's time to restrict that particular one to sims. I WOULD NOT let anyone talk me into doing it in flight.
