Hey, it feels like i NEVER post serious threads, but i am curious to hear what everyone plans to do during 2008, a BRAND NEW year, that will help the scooter community grow and strengthen.

Whether it be organizing parts, competitions, jams, shirts, teams, movie premieres, or simply just progressing on your scooter, id really like 2008 to be a big year for scooter riding.

Me myself, i have nothing planned. All i know is that once basketball season is over, i REALLY want to try to put together a video and premiere it at my church or school or something. Also, if that happens, i am planning on making a bunch of DVD's and handing them out to local skateshops/skateparks(dirtwood), and people i know will spread them responsibly.

Anyway, tell me what you think. I dont know about you, but if i saw scooters on the X-Games in the future with my kids(lol they will be scootering too), a big <33333333 would be inside my heart.

Riding plans:

1 - 360 the 30ft gap with a snow-scooter
If we get enough snow down here in January or February, i'll defenetaly do a 360 over the 30ft gap which i rode last year. Some of you remember the video, i hope :)

2 - Backflips and frontflips
I nearly had frontflips last summer, but i know i will start working on them this spring/summer.

3 - Go to UK
I really want to go to UK some day to chill with some bros for a few days.

4 - Go to XW comp
IF i'm doing well enough with WEE scooters then i might start planning on a trip like that.
I'd like to go to Montreux too, but it's in April but my senior class final exams start in april and they go up til June. Kinda sucks. But XW is in the middle of the summer, it's just perfect.

although i have started rollerblading, i still scooter. for 08 i plan on going to the tic comp even tho i hate it there. (or if there even is gonna be one)...as for anything else, maybe ill land frontflips. all iknow is this past year my resolution for scootering was to stop beinga bitch, and since then ive learned flips over boxes, spines and got flairs too. everything i ever "thought" of doing i basically did. '08 will be huge considering the amount of kids in the sport now...recently i was at my locals, and its SCARY to see what me and frank coler have done...weve inadvertantly created an army of scooter riders. they are all ages and got some other kids back into it. its amazing, and its at every park. we used to be the ONLY two kids doing it. its so awesome....so i hope 08 is good for it. i know ill still be around
