Users overwhelmingly criticize the game's monetization for excessive, frequent, and often unskippable ads, especially after every run or crash, which disrupt gameplay and cause crashes or glitches. Many report that in-app purchases advertised to remove ads fail to work, leading to frustration and distrust.

Grinding in the game includes key tricks like 50-50s and rail balancing, but players note limitations such as inability to perform other grind types or dismount early. While the tutorial covers grinding fundamentals, issues with balance mechanics and restricted trick variety detract from the experience. Overall, grinding is fun but needs improvements for smoother and more versatile gameplay.
- “The game is very fun but it always kicks me out and you can't do a normal indy and I don't know if you can even do other grinds than 50-50s. Also, while grinding, you can't get off unless the object you're grinding on ends, so please fix these problems. It's an amazing game with lots of problems.”
- “It used to be cool but now it's not right. With the grinding now, you have to balance — what happened?!”
- “And what you do grinding and dedicating yourself to that trick.”
