I love being brakeless.Although you go through shoes like a bitch. You feel free and its like a different side to riding.

I ride park and its harder to tailtap etc.
I feel nervous without a lever.
It's cheaper to go through brake pads then shoes.

3 reasons that persuaded me not to go brakeless.

i kinda gave up on park seeing as though im shit at it and it bores me

i will still go to learn how to 3 soon then i will take it too the street
i find everything easier brakeless ie: spins, tailwhips

today i did like a manul like i would when i bunny hop and i jumped off and did a tailwhip (but it didnt get far)
so i tried to actual hop whip (ive never tried a tailwhip in my life before now)
it felt like it got 3 quarters the way around before my feet hit the ground but pronly only half way
im super stoked i want to try it fly-out and see if i get close to landing it
