Soon ill cut the deck a little in the front, then build, weld and reinforce a new foldy and put my friend's built metal skis instead wheels. If not, then maybe ill cut the deck in half and make a mini-scooter lol :D

when i rode new a's if i was lucky it would last a month a bought one about a week and a half aho and i stoped using it like threedays ago because it had broke pretyy much, that when i fixed up an old B i i think. i went through about 12-15 new A's since late july 04

most of my scooters have lasted no more than a month or six weeks. my pro model though has lasted two and a half months. the drop outs are starting to crack thoguh so it'll probably break relatively soon
 
old a's used to last me no time anywhere from 3 -4 months the new a's the frame, forks, stem and other major parts stay good but ive had to replace every bolt on the scooter many times and wheels twice. i've had it for about six months but i hate the new a's there crap

Did you just say that new a's last longer than old a's?

Jeez scooters last me a while, probably 6 months sometimes more. I don't take many big drops so that could be a reason, or I just suck.

nah, skill have nothing to do with it. if you ride smooth they last longer, if you dont they break (most the time). its probally different for street if you have two kids and ones doing a 10 set and the other kids doing a 4.

Old a's i get about a month out of, unless i dont grind probably a little longer
B's usually around a month
I havent broken a properly modded new A yet
