Yes you can. I flipped mine after about 12 events and have since run 6
more. The only issue is that they are now getting hard. I've been waiting
for them to wear out but they refuse. (Maybe it's because I have a new set
waiting to put on.) Just be a bit careful on the first run after flipping
them, that edge is less scuffed and can be a bit slippery in the first few
corners.
