So far it hasn't presented any problems on tight sections of trail on the Shore. The shape has actually made it easier to hit tight corners where normally you get a little feedback on the front wheel, with it trying to tuck under whenever hitting obstacles in the corner. I've found this to allow for a more relaxed technique through such corners and sections of trail on the G16 and am yet to find a drawback that wouldn't be the same on a more common geometry. Skinnies would likely be an issue, exaggerated by my lack of practice. I generally avoid them at all costs. :)
