I think this is the whole point. Riders were asking more of the boards than the boards could do, and when the board was unable to comply the rider would lose their balance.

Lol, plaintiffs’ law firm knows exactly what they’re doing.

r/interestingasfuck and r/shittylifeprotips are both total free-for-alls. Nsfw, spez hate spam, random shitposts… I assume r/pics is still John Oliver. NSFW subs are posting Christian content.

Reddit is kinda on fire at the moment.

I used to comment occasionally on r/home improvement. Thanks for operating it. Sorry they broke it. Welcome home.
