Is this bumper considered legal?

Hello all- I am looking for some opinions here as Q&A takes forever. The rules for bumpers mentions that the bumper has to be supported every 8 inches. However, it doesn't specify where that support must occur. Would a bumper in the attached image (represented by the blue square) be considered legal? It is supported along its length however only at one side. (In actuality it would have additional vertical supports in the center but further apart than 8" - this is just an exaggerated "sketch")

Thanks
