a) you dont need brakes to do a freewheel trackstand, surface is more important, and hip control.

i usually keep a 1-3mm distance between my rim and brake pad

My rear brake grips my rim a bit too well. It takes no effort for it to lock the rear wheel and make me skid, which kind of sucks when I need to stop quickly and happen to grab both brakes.
