I did not touch my rear brakes I know this for a fact. I hit my front brakes hard (fully compressed in one motion), it was an over-reaction..
I low sided it as I was under the bike. The accident was in between 70-90km/hr

Wet road/slippery surface/gravel/cold tyre?

I guess cold tyre... Didnt actually think about that. I was about 1-2kms down the road...

When I pressed the brakes it happened so quickly it was as if I didn't have a chance to correct it at all

Yeah, cold tyre might explain the low slide. Sheer bad luck I guess, sometimes it's hard to predict or correct and it's already too late. But you came out without any major injuries so that's the good part :)
