just to let everyone know im a black kid so growing i was thrown in alot of different sports mostly basketball and i wanted my own identity not just that black kid that plays basketball my father always told me just play basketball you can get into a great college and i didnt want that, of course i wanna go to college but not like that. when i first discovered scootering it was about 2012 i was 13 at the time and i told my mom and my dad i wanted to be a scooter rider and that i dont wanna play basketball and as black kid growing up you have to play football or basketball lol but anyway they totally dissed me and said HELL NO and i saved up money for a whole year and on my 14 birthday i bought my first scooter which was razor pro model and my parents couldnt say shit because it was my money. but back to the point scootering saved my life honestly i was very depressed and i didnt have alot of friends before scooters if it wasnt for scooters i would be a parents pet playing some sport being sad and depressed as hell i take my scooter every where with me its my baby this 6 pounds of metal is the reason i wake up and put a smile on my face and ive lost alot of relationships with people over it but thats okay there had been a time i had broken my ankel and the next day i got my cast i was trying riding my scoot around the house and remember my mom saying that im in love with that scooter and thats true i am and i will be nothing without but as long as i can stand on my own too feet dust myself off pick up my scooter and push i will be the happiest mf in this bitch
