I don't see a problem
I think my main problem is a lot of kids at my local think that tucking in their shirts instantly makes them street, and it just looks kind of ridiculous with a dozen 10 year olds riding around dressed like they are lawyers or something

I don't do it personally, but I'd imagine tucking your shirt would stop your bars getting caught up in it, I've fucked up a few times and done that haha

bad:
people treating scootering as a sport when really they just need to chill the fuck out
people still think wearing helmets and doing the same briflipass tricks is a 'style'

also super annoying, entire 'street riding' videos composed of only handrails and stairsets, like people can defintely be more creative than that


good:
peachy is pretty sick
hate comments

I'd have to disagree, you can still do bri's/wear a helmet and have style, it's just lots of people that do those things don't have style. and hate ain't good for anyone either, at least constructive criticism is helpful, hate is useless

I can see why they were kicked. Eric's part was 1 min 40 seconds over almost 2 years (idk if they are payed for riding??), not to say that he didn't manage to be awesome in that time though, so good riders just not enough footage.

ye I know that but it's still bad, because they were already losing interest in scooters but by kicking them out, they might lose all interest in scootering and to me they are my favorite riders

monky is still riding hard. don't know who erik would ride with now though. and i do not think they get payed, but they get some money if they have signature parts i think. it would be so cool if scootering would become big enough to have real pros making a living solely through riding

That's ONE dude. Not everyone is gonna be on Nitro Circus and shred like he does. I mean like real dudes who make incredible street parts, wonder if they'll ever be able to make a living from that.

I'm sure it's possible. with the increasing popularity that scooters are getting, won't be long before the big company's (eg. tilt, ethic etc.) start paying their riders.
