scootering in x-games
- Thread starter conor
- Start date
Rollerblading was in X Games for a long ass time...and is still a bigger sport than scootering..and isn't in X Games.... so yea.. I doubt they would even consider putting scootering.. in the X games. like honestly if you just think about it...You'd realize it probably wont be happening anytime soon.. if at all. X Games is complete garbage now.

yea who cares, I appreciate the credit, but how wold it really benefit us if it went that big? we've got all the companies we need, I guess if there's any place to improve it would be that we could get some shoe sponsors and legit clothing sponsors (that wasn't a dylan kasson joke). but other than that I like scootering the way it is, there are a minimal number of sellout riders and I think we might as well enjoy it while it lasts
haha yea fuckk the x games. i love them but scooters shouldnt be in there. and freestyle bmx should NOT be in the olympics. its fuckking gay. and i hate when they call us athletes. were RIDERS not athletes. makes me feel like a gay ass jock. fuckkk the bullshittt yo

Yeah sure, you guys would looovee to click on the tv to watch scooters on the x-games but you know what? i bet half or more of the pro riders dont even want to go to the x-games n compete.,i know i dont want to. its easy for you to deside when your the one in it just to watch it. soo why dont you guys just cut all off all the bs n stop bringin it up.

I got myself banned.
People that want scootering in the xgames
-Kiddies
-Park rats
People that don't give a shitt
-The people that would be riding in the xgames
-Everyone that doesn't want the sport to sell out
Seriously, who cares about the xgames, why do you want it on there? So you can watch Matty Mckeen do a "street" handrail in a park on your tv instead of some legit shreading on here? X Games = xtreme advertising. Its all about the $$$. Making money and scooters can't be used in the same sentence.

Glad.
Scooters will not go into the X-Games.. at least not in america.
We have come so far on our own, why sell out.
Honestly with what we have right now.. We're set.
We have several companies Rider owned and operated and others where the main goal is to help push scooters farther..
When i first started.. everything we have today was a dream.
I remember thinking it'd be awesome to run a pair of wheels that lasted longer than 2 weeks...
We now have wheels that can last years.
Ever break a stock T-tube.. it sucks you had to go out and buy a new scooter to replace one part..
Now we have all kinds of Bars for our scooters..
The list goes on.
Every single part on the scooter is no being fabricated and sold. Everything is now after market. Even down the the clamps that hold the bars on or the bolts that go into the clamps..
Seriously.. We have come so fucking far. We are at a really dam good place right now.
If scooters were to compete in the X-games.. it would only bring out riders who want fame money and coverage.. Basically the sell outs.
I know i want whats best for scooters, and right now. Thats not x-games.
We have a steady flow of comps going right now.
Esp with the fuzion tour going on.
And the Annual SD comp then XW SBW TIC and so on. If anything, Make decent videos but em on DVDs and take em into your local skate/bike shops and give em a stack of DVDs people will grab em and watch em and become curious. Itll spread by word of mouth and getting increasingly bigger.

im just gonna qoute this and say, sure you would love to see that but really is up us if we want to or not. proriders are pro to bring the sport up more, maybe we will get together some day n say hell yeah lets shred the fuck outa this sell out comp but for now were not at that level no1 is getting paid. the day i could wake up call my dealer pick up a oz n go out ride then goto a bar after without no job just money from scooter then sure,fuckin put me in the x-games, job, scooter, filming, hangovers, its to much to "train" for this. you can qoute this all you want but every prorider will have my back on this one.conrad said:
