Joe,
 
I have not tried it yet, but I thought the same thing. Could be an airplane breaker. I have always liked props with good braking action, perhaps this maneuver above all the rest will decide which prop to use. You will have to disspate a lot of energy before the snap, then the snap will kill more energy, then you will have to climb out hanging on the prop.
 
Bob.

A few weeks ago I was experimenting with the speed/enegy required to do the 
loop with snap roll on the bottom. Be forewarned, I went into the loop with 
a little too much energy and bent my wing tube. I'm beginning to wonder 
whether this particular manuever should be changed for safety sake?
