No, you make relief cuts beforehand so that the waste drops off on the curves as you cut.

If you have to make blind cuts with the bandsaw relief cuts are a necessity. As you progress through the cuts the scrap pieces will fall away providing some clearance.

That would be a fairer trade! Don't got an extra one.
