skating is way harder than scootering, but there is more possibility for creating a trick with skateboards, because you dont have bars in the way. in scootering its way easier to learn the first tricks, but when you get higher its harder and harder. the fact that scooters are somewhat "limited" makes the creation of a new trick very difficult, but very rewarding nevertheless.

exactly. There are wayyyy more tricks you can do on a scooter. I think skateboards are "limited" now, because you can't invent anything new anymore. Scooters have soooo many trick possibilities, you just have to open your eyes and be creative.

well, skateboards have almost unlimited flip tricks, kickflips, heelflips, varial kicks, varial heels, tre flips, laser flips, plus flat land skateboarding has tons of crazy stuff. but scootering you have whips, doubles, triples.. etc, plus you can combo alot easier on. for examply i want to see some one do kickflip indy late kickflip. i dont really know if that could be done. but whip bar whip for example on a scooter.

that is exactly my point. not to sound like a dick, but is it possible to 720 double kickflip a scooter?
 
Skateboarding air tricks are extremely poor. You can only:
1.rotate your board around 3 axes.
2.rotate yourself around 3 axes (and go offaxis occasionally).
3.grab your board
4.do a shifty or take one foot off.
and you can combo those.

In scootering there are so many trick categories which are completely different, which makes our sport unique.

Skateboards are for people who aren't manly enough to ride scooters.


This whole argument is pointless anyway, if the hardest thing to ride is the best, we all should ride unicycles or something. Too bad it's hardly possible to air a ramp though.

yeah im still wondering why skateboarders go to skateparks because half of them don't even do vert tricks and just hang out and talk to other skaters the whole time

If you take the mega ramp into account for skating then you have to take it into account for scooters, and there will still be more trick possibilities for scooters.
