Default Reverse rotation on the front tires??

I saw a bike a couple weeks back and they had the front directional tires backwards. Think this would be good for backing out of a muddy area? Thinking it might be good in sand so the tires don't dig in. My dad use to run directional tires backwards on the front of his F100 when hunting in the mountains and he swears by it. Thoughts, comments????

You could try it, I suppose. Might be fine, might not track well...

Directional tires turned around will accually increace traction, however they do not clean near as will. And I am kinda like Jeffin.........may not steer as well or track.
