That’s how I ride mine. I’ve recently hit a thousand miles, 50/50mix of paved and trails. I’ve had many crashes in that time but have had nothing but a few bruises and scrapes to show for it. I also ripped my pants once which sucked. I liked those pants. So yea, most of the problems with this board are related to people going faster than they can safely bail.
