Transmission question

This happened last year ( and i forgot to ask) as well as Tuesday night again. Backdragging this snow I got some under the truck and was on some ice as well. I had to "rock" back and forth to get out. In older trucks i was able to rock forward put it in reverse and rock back quite quickly. This truck does not allow me to do that. It seems the rpm needs to be down before it will grab. If i try to give it gas to soon - it kinda shutters not really going anywhere. Im thinking safety/protection built for the tranny. Anyone know what its called or had this happen to them???

It's designed that way to protect the transmission.
