Rear tire skidding

Been doing a lot of hills lately. I read or watched a video where someone recommended slowing down using the rear brake.


while doing that I’ve had a few occasions where (especially in a turn) my rear wheel locks up and I start a short skid. Luckily I’ve corrected by releasing the brakes in time to prevent losing control.

im using rim brakes and keep my but on the saddle


any tips to avoid the skids?
