It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Agree. Wheels are too small. Any sort of issue and your face is cheesegraded against the asphalt.
On a known, smooth course, though? Sign me up!
Yeah, and for how much money people lay down for their micromobility devices, very few of them seem willing to put down the $20 for a Walmart helmet, much less a $100+ helmet from a reputable brand.
Closed course would be good. Something I can slide on in kneepads if/when I eat shit.
It's OK I put my hands down to catch myself, broken wrist / collar bone can't be that that bad....
