The design, maintenance, and alteration of parachute equipment is regulated by the FAA; equipment must be approved under the FAA’s technical standards, and anyone packing a parachute must be an FAA-licensed rigger.

AFAIK there are no such standards (mandatory or voluntary) applied to Onewheel’s devices.

They could have voluntarily applied hardware and software standards from other safety fields (e.g. automotive engineering), but they apparently chose not to.

As the peer commenter said: move fast and break bones.
