i quit skateboarding after around 13 years of consistently riding one for scootering.

and i've pretty much given up BMX, which i'd been doing for around 4-5 years for scootering.

Aggressive Inline. It's pretty boss IMO.

I started skating when I was like 8 and I played Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. I was never any good at all. I could like Ollie and boardslide on flat rails but that was it. But I got to skate a bunch of different places because at that time I was traveling a lot. I also started dirt bike racing and 250cc amateur level road racing at this time too.

When I was about 10 or 11 I forget which I stayed in New York for a month. We were visiting and it was awesome. We had this cottage near the beach with a bunch of other cottages around us. It was like a neighborhood right next to the beach. There were tons of kids all around and it is probably one of my best summers. I was out everyday. I remember that we weren't allowed to ride bicycles on the sidewalk and I was just getting into BMX at the time so I got in trouble a lot with cops on Bicycles. I remember my mom and dad yelling at me for getting like 5 tickets in one day for getting got so many times by cops on bicycles. It was this time as well though that I was walking down one of the neighborhood roads and some kid had left his razor just sitting in the middle of the street. Like the bastard child I was I stole the scooter and took it at my own. I had always thought they were cool but my parents would never get me a scooter. I rode it a bit and got down small bunnyhops, small manuals, and rock and rolls. and I had this dream of being a pro scooter rider but about 10 days later the scooter got stolen back. And I was all depressed because the scooter was the coolest thing ever I thought. Didn't ride again till 2008

I quit skating for BMX at like age 12. I got better at BMX because by this time I had my first sport bike (My Ninja ZX-5R) and had been doing stupid stunts on it so I did a lot of flatland with BMX. I also got a Jet Ski the previous year and started doing stunts for a local Polaris Sponsored team. However with BMX after a nasty wreck about three years later that left a permanent dent in my chest (which is still very visible today) I quit BMX because motorcycle racing meant much more to me and I couldn't keep getting injured. Plus it was around this time I got a dual sport as well and started to invent Supermoto Freeriding. I also got into Parkour around this time.

I got interested back in scooters when I started in college and had been interested for awhile. I made this account I think in '07 I dunno but didn't start really riding till a month ago. I bought my Pro Model last July and just did dumb stuff like manuals and bunnyhops. I've been really riding for a month and I just broke my first pro model last night trying a 10 stair. I am in love with scooters and they are here to stay. My motorcycle racing never got me pro because my dad told me no matter how good I was I was going to college. So no racing career for me.

I now race in the CMRA Supersport and Hypersport classes. I am the founder of Supermoto Freeriding. I am a Trial Biker and Motorcross rider. I have a Honda R-12X Jet Ski and currently am on a Honda Stunt and Race Team with it. Don't play on going anywhere with. It's just for fun. I do parkour a bit and am trying to really get back into it. I fly planes for a career and hope to graduate college in a few years. I recently picked up Snowmobile Freestyle but that is also just for fun.

Now I have scooters in my life too. And I would gladly abandon BMX, Aggressive Inline, and Skateboarding for it. I love scooter kids and scootering. :)
