Default Bailing/falling technique?

What method is best to bail? Most of the time I fall over to the side and
skid or wump to a stop, but last year I bailed on a very hard/icy downhill
slope, and skidded on my hipbone over a washboard surface for quite a
while. The bruises lasted weeks. Is there a better way to bail under such
circumstances or in general?

See the post titled "Dumb Question" posted a couple of days ago. Similar
question was asked and you'll might get a few answers.
