Gentle take-offs at high speed
I'm not thinking in terms of risk, but of finesse.

I consider a perfect takeoff (at least from smooth pavement) one in which
you don't know you've left the ground until you look down.
Statistically, nearly half of all accidents occur during landing, so
it's logical to be more worried about landings. Take-offs are more
fun, so perhaps that also distracts pilots from the potential risks.
