Sorry ill reword my question because this doesn't answer it. The spot is see able from the ground, kill able with a default weapon, and achievable with a jet pack. Is it legal to prop surf to the spot due to jet pack route taking longer and being more inconstant. In other words can you prop surf to legal spots. Additionally if this is not allowed how can it be known whether the spot was achieved legally or illegally.


Funny enough, my response does answer your question. 

Is it a spot only obtainable by Jet pack? The answer is yes because that's part of the game mode is using a Jet Pack. The use of prop surfing is a gravity/prop manipulation to create a boost. 

Do I suggest you push the limits by going to spots that you can't also get to using a jet pack? No I do not, as that can then be considered exploiting.

You may argue and say "well anyone can do it with practice" which is a true statement however like I said that prop surfing/climbing is a gravity/prop manipulation and wasn't (to my knowledge) placed into the game mode as a perk or addition but is rather a glitch.

IF you are asked to move by staff because where you're at is unreasonable then move and don't go back there. 

You want a black and white answer? Don't prop surf/climb then you don't have to worry whether or not your spot is legal pertaining to prop surfing spots.
