Full scale trike pilots seem to forget that the mains have to be on the ground before the nose.
I trained on a Cessna-150, and my instructor would smack me if I let the nose wheel smack the runway. I don't know about other trike gear pilots, but I was taught to do a full stall landing. I teach it when instructing R/C.
