You "put a flat spot on the left tire"? Surprised you didn't ground

Yeah, I suspect that when I applied the brakes and the nose came left I
automatically put in full right rudder and didn't get far enough off of
the right brake.

The Skylane RG has smaller tires than the welded gear version, slides
easier to begin with and doesn't take long to mark up the tires.

I mostly fly a Pitts so ground looping something as docile as a Skylane
wasn't too likely (famous last words!
