Good question! It's like debating about the gender of angels, like we say in Spain.

Right now, I'm riding strapped on my tabou pocket air after learning strapless on a starboard 4in1 hypernut.

Strapless could lead you to more uncontroled crashes without the control straps bring to you, although, that crashes are painless compared to being caught in a strap on an uncontrolled crash...
