Has scootering messed up your back?

[scooterperu]

i know why it hurts you next day, cuz ur that stoned that u dont even feel it. naah jk (for jason beggs)
my back is completely fucked up and i cant get my bars taller, theyre 22.. and cant ride them taller than that

 

[the_SD_local]

5'5" tall

17"x13" (stock) - 3.5 years
17"x15" (buffs) - 1.5 year
18.5"x15" (buffs) - 1 year
20"x16" (sr gusset one pieces) - 9 months
21"x18" ("sr team bars") - 9 months->now

The taller and wider (and steeper headtube angle) you go, the more comfortable riding becomes. My back used to bother me when I rode baby bars but now I feel fine.

6ft tall riding 18 high......backs fuckeddd up lol

im 5'6 and i ride 16 high
after a while my back starts to hurt

 

[Joe Riley]

i can do tricks better and cleaner at 18 high than any other height. 19 feels good but manuals are a bit harder for me, so i stick with 18.

People .. thats why you stretch before scootering to loosen up your muscles and you should be fine if you dont stretch your muscles tighen up for instance in your back and therefore your back hurting.

 

[ibbruiser]

mine has always been messed up haha

same, i messed up my back in a tire swing accident. i had 2 people spin it. i tried to dive through to see if i could make it. i did NOT make it.

probably seemed like you could do it at the time though

my back only hurts when i ride low bars so when i get a new bar height ride it for a while and my back starts to hurt i make my bars .5 - 1 inch higher and see what happens

5'7" and 22" tall, it's mad nice. They're a tad lower since I only have one nut on my fork, and will be shorter when I get my compression system. When I hold onto my bars I barely lean over, it's good.

I'm also 5'7" and ride 22" High! lol

 

[Tylerr.]

[corruptedrapture]
