You get to practice landing on shear ice or at least snow covering shear ice. Roll to a stop, hold the brakes, give a little throttle, spin it 180 in place release the brake and take off the other way.

First of all SOB lies a lot. This here guy lived in CT for 27 years! Winter is for hairy beast or Kennedy and Kerry nitwits. I once landed my C-310 on a ice covered runway. Found I could steer OK but not able to come to dead stop after clearing the runway. Total ice everywhere. Ahead I saw a dry spot - right in front of the gas pumps. It was just a 10 foot around dry spot. I was able to stop there - refuel - I fired up but once I was off the brakes there was no stopping until I applied takeoff power for take off. No run up mag check. I felt like I was committing a sin. Nope - God made the sun for a reason and I live in a land with that plus the best college football & basket ball teams in the country, Thank you very much!

Yes, but this abrupt maneuver typically results in the GIB's quadruple, decaf, extra frap mocha soiling the gold lamay chute cover....
