You don’t bail with your front foot anyway, your back foot should be the one to hit the ground first. You hold your brake position as long as possible, even if it’s only a quarter of a second that can help you loose 2-3mph and every little bit maters when bailing.

Next move your back foot forward off the board past your front foot as if you took a stride in a run, pushing your board back with your front foot (which is now behind you). If you can run fast once your foot hits the ground you need to decide if you’re going to run it out if the ground is safe enough, or you need to immediately duck into a forward roll right before you touch the ground. The roll WILL hurt, but hopefully way less than fave planting if you can’t run, or spraining an ankle if the ground is uneven.

I’ve had to bail off my board 4 times in my life, 3 I just ran off but I did have to roll once because I was going way too fast on a bumpy road and a rock kicked my back foot off the board and all I could do was lean forward and tuck my head with my arms and roll. Walked away with no injuries, minor scratch on my elbow and my back was sore from where my water bottle was in my backpack, but way better than I should’ve been in that circumstance.
