If, on the other hand, it's within the aircraft's limitations, not against the regs, you've been trained (ie - practice it at "recurrent") on the procedure and have planned and briefed it....
I don't think throwing out spoilers at 100' is a good idea, but I've never had to do it or practiced it...maybe I'm wrong. I also don't see a problem with pushing the boards out at the marker or 1000' so you're stabilized by DH.
