Lol yea dude if you think your tuff shit for being a 2009er i have been on SR since 2007 if you look at my old account that is called devinthedew I lost it, so i had to make a second account called devinthedew2. And im been for 7 years so it really doesnt matter. Im not saying im a badass for this and nobody should. Its not about when you joined SR or how long you have been riding, its about how you act.

calm down, your usually cool. I had an account before this one to, so yea.
 
Soooo... Yeaa.. About the Dew Tour. I think it would be kinda cool. I like how scootering is just starting to get big, even though it's been going on for years and years. I remember a few years back, there were no shops in California.. Now there are a bunch showing up. Like SZ, Pro-Ride, Twisted and some other shops.

Even if we wanted it in the x games or dew tour we couldn't. Scootering as a sport is not valuable enough as a sport for the sponsors and associations that run those large scale comps to even consider. Think of skating nearly everybody knows what it is, they know of some sort of pro, they have a general idea of the sport therefore the average consumer could support it and buy into it but with scootering not everybody quite understands what were talking about when we say scootering, most likely the first thought is razor scooters and kids riding them around not what we know it as with riders like Kota and McKeen doing stuff that most people could not even begin to wrap their heads around. So no unfortunately scootering will probably not get into these comps and i know you guys think that would suck but if you really hate being called gay 90% of skateparks then you might want it to be in there to gain the respect of the public

I know everybody's saying "i want this sport to be under ground" or "i don't want a whole bunch of little kids riding scooters" but first of all, people need to start scootering somewhere so no duh little kids are gonna scooter and if this sport made it as big as skateboarding i bet it would be more respected and it might be nice to make a living off of scootering

I consider myself an "OG".
I rode scooter's in 2004, me and my one freind were the only people who rode within 20 miles. Thats when scootering was fun, i think if scooters blow up, such as BMX, and skate, the "COmmunity" will die. It'll be full of hate and other shieet. Scooter's are at their highest point right now. We're heading in the right direction. But out of all the teams/companies. Lucky is the company that is making this sport look "Legit".
