I'd rather not. If you have a fan page for yourself, you're way too cocky..
Also, it's not like if no one likes his page he'll stop making videos. Duh?

Is the whole Lucky team comprised of cocky riders? No offense... well, some offense.

i refuse to like anyones fan page unless they are a celebrity.. i don't see why riders have fan pages, yes it does seam cocky, even tyler bonner and ryan williams, im sure they dont mean it that way but thats how it comes off.
 
the reason lucky made their riders fan pages is so the annoying kids can ask questions and stuff to them on their FANPAGE.So they dont do all the questions and shit on their actaul facebook

scootering isnt big enough yet for sponsered riders to have fan pages. scootering isnt about fame and popularity. just have fun and ride.

Wow you post because James Gee has a Fan Page, do you realise that pretty much every Madd rider has one aswell?

if they are actually getting THAT many questions maybe lucky should do a Q&A video with them or something.. making a fanpage for that is stupid.

oh my........ lol
the purpose of being sponsored is to communicate with the community as much as possible
that is why companies make a facebook, a website, a youtube account, a twitter, and so on
It isn't to be cocky its to cover all the bases. There are some riders that have a facebook but no sr account or an twitter but no facebook. I know that may sound hard to believe but its true. Now if you want to tell the world about your company then you got to reach out every possible way. For the facebook fanpage thing: remember all these riders and company owners are real people with their own lives and friends. They don't want to add ever kid on facebook or talk to them all because its time consuming. I get so many video and emails for Impact already ( i can't even picture how much inside does)that i never get to them all, no matter how much i try and dedicate time to. So you create a facebook fanpage to funnel all videos questions all that through a source. So you only have to look at one or a few sources and you can update must of them all at once notifying large numbers of people . Back in the day Pro Scooter rider was just a title, it didn't meant much except for you got free parts. Now its a job where they have requirements for and this is only a sign that the sport is getting bigger. Its up to the community to decide if they want to support. It doesn't take much to like something on facebook because when the owners see the community getting connected and involved then they will invest more if not, then our sport will die like rollerblading currently is
so the choice is yours......................

this sport isnt going to die if individual riders dont have fan pages. i don't see too many bmxers having fanpages they keep up with.
if the riders really want to talk to the "fans" they can set up an aim account just to talk to them.. email.. sign up to sr.. if its so time consuming having a fanpage wont change that.. its pointless.

the point i brought up about the sport dieing is more relating to what the owners want
lets face it what would happen if tom floyd from phoenix brian from lucky todd from zg, mike for mgp , all the other company owners decide we are pulling our investments out and quitting the scooter buisness. Well in time their replacements would come but for a while there would be a gap where theres no scooter companies. I got word that more rollerblading companies such as k2 ( and more) and going to invest into scootering because they feel that the rollerbladers were too difficult to deal with and they are done with the sport. Well that same thing could happen to scooters. Its possible. Not saying its for sure going to happen but its possible. So to me if the owners want their riders to have a fanpage then let the owners have their way. Its not that big of a deal to know tyler bonner along with every other pro scooter rider is going to eventually have or make a fanpage. Aim for the sky guys. When we treat our sport like its a huge sport then it will become one. Its all in due time
idk i could be wrong but all this stuff doesn't hurt its the negative talk that hurts
