Specs:

Deck/Headtube: Bolted Pro Model
Bars: SZ 23" high by 18" wide
Brake/Clamp/Fork: Pro Model
Wheels: Green Machines
Grip Tape: Checkered
Grips: ODI Longneck
Bar ends: ODI
Pegs: Long axles with bearings on em

Shoes: Nike 6.0's!

My deck is starting to creak and my wheels are getting screwed up.

1. I think I'm going to get the DSA Deck saver from Inward, would it look good on my scoot powdercoated orange?

2. As for wheels, I've thought about those orange Eagle Metal Cores on Inward, but theyre $34 each! I think I should go with Orange Yak metal cores. I know they wont last that long but theyre $20 for a pair. Should I get the solid core or 3 spoke? Ill be getting bearings too.

3. Also, I plan on spraying my headtube, deck, brake, and fork white, and spraying the clamp orange. How would that look?

4. Im getting two free 4' high x 8' wide quarters along with lots of plywood and 2x4's. I plan to build it all in to a halfpipe with a normal 2' deck on one side and a 2' deck on the other side elevated 3' above the quarter with a wallride underneath. Hows that sound? Any other ideas...

your a fnck. so you post your shitty scooter in the yourscooter thread and make your own thread an put it in there again. i think the nuub is trying to brag. your scoot is not that good. you dont need metal cores till you break GMs [not wear out]

if your going to build a half pipe do it right. and make it bigger4' is like to my bottom ribs. make it 6' or something.

No need to be a douche, God.

Anyway, maybe a new headset, your scoot looks clean as is though.

6.0 are disgusting i wreck a pair in 2 weeks and took them back and got some globes which ended up lasting 5 months.
And with the halfpipe do 5-6 ft and not so vert. You will love it then.
And that one guy is right use gms till you break em not wear them out.

Where can I find the goII's?

Also, I will probably make the side without the elevated deck 5 or 6 ft tall now. but Im getting the quarters free already built at 4 ft. I geuss I will mod them.

My GM's are breaking. Im assuming its due to the big drops I was doing into my empty neighborhood pool. I geuss Ill go with goIIs if somebody can link me.

As for the headset, Id like a new one but my bars are really tight fit on the fork, I hammered them on with a mallet. I really dont feel like taking them off if I dont have to.

Thanks for the help...

im not a dumb fnck i know he is new. im just saying he doesnt have to put pictures of his scooter in a thread about a half pipe or wheels or what ever the fnck this is out. i will admit i was a bit harsh cuz i dislike scooterzone.

there needs to be a nuubs thread or nuubs training cource or something

I posted pics of my scoot to ask for opinions on that specific paintjob. I know that my scooter isnt that great. Its mostly stock. GTFO. You dont need to take out your anger for SZ on me.

Why do you dislike SZ anyways?
