Do you think scootering is going to be a really famous sport about 10 - 20 years ?

Yeh,
When i first started, like 2 years ago, This sport was unheard of,
Now in my suburb its huge
and everysingle park i go to is loaded with scooter kids with yaks and razors.
and thats just a span of a year.
All my local bike shops and surf shops have scooter wheels and crap.

It will be huge.

no, it got two big to fast, people dont know how to practice and they quit cause there not getting better, so it gets smaller... im my city, there was about 75+ riders now there is 45+ they all quit cause it stared to get hard..... so i had to cancel my am. team cause it didnt have enough riders. im down to a pro team, and fear losing that.

True story;
The other day i was walking down the street in the city (Sydney) and a kid, probably about 11, came up to me and said "Hey your that Aaron scooter guy from youtube hey?".
I was like, yeah i am :) How did you hear about me?
"Oh, me and my friends at school always talk about you, we want to start riding scooters now".
So i guess, the sport is definately growing, just from kids watching videos and starting to ride.
Its really a snowball effect...
If one good rider releases a video, and it start 50 people riding, then 3 of those people become good, they inspire another 50 each to start riding, then of those 150, 9 become good... etc. etc.
I think it WILL become big, just can't really put a time on it really.

^^^ that is soooo sick Aaron, but hey, you deserve it MAAAAINGGGG

I kinda feel the same way you do on a smaller scale. I'll go to parks that are close to an hour away from my local and kids I've never seen in my life on scooters and skateboards, etc., will say "Hey your Chase Adams, right?" haha it's kinda cool.

Haha, thanks heaps man :)

Yeah, as jake said, like 10 kids in Australia had scooters 5 years ago.
Now every 3rd kid has one...
Its definately growing, and from the looks of things, reasonably fast.
