only thing i realy ride is street.
i love street, it just kills scooters faster :(
my mini vid (when i get round to filming more footy) will be like 90% street.
i still have yet to learn handrails tho...there is none suitable to learn on round my area.

it'll make us look like posers of skaters

building on to that, a lot of my friends are skaters, really good ones too, when i show them scooter videos they always ask me if theres park scootering in it, and if i say yes they don't wanna watch it. i agree with them to some extent, park videos bore the shit out of me, i find myself skipping through all park videos or just closing it, cause it's all the same shit to me, there is sooooo much more creativity in street, in parks everything is made for skating, all the rails/ramps. in street its totally different, its more impressive when i look at it. btw im not saying all park videos suck, terry's and other children like blt is nuts, but even when i showed my friends those video they werent as amazed as i was. theyd rather see rails, lines, and gaps on scooters

see i think exactly the opposite. I love street videos and park videos. yea most park videos get boring when you see them alot fromt he same people. Like all those TIC ones. boring a shell. But I think parks are more maid for scooters with the gaps and stuff. scooters and bikes. Matt, your one of the only TRUE street riders, grinding rails that shouldnt be grinded, and like in transit you grinded that newspaper thing. Yea you make the most of street and I love your riding. I dont know I like both Im just scared of rails and big drops hurt so I stick to park haha.

another thing i need to point out, street isnt just fucking stairs and big drops that'll fuck your scooter up so stop saying that, whenever i feel my scooter is gunna break soon, i stick to smaller things like ledges, manny pads, banks, whatever. you dont have to do big shit to be considered a street rider. look at alex and danny warwick, those kids ride smalls things all the time but i love watching them cause their soooo creative and tech. so stop this im afraid of stairs thats why i dont ride street

the only reason i like park better is because i love bowls, if there wasn't any bowls at my park i woudn't go there.

i agree, in park vids the rider goes to the same place and they dont use the whole park and in street vids the rider goes to different places and jumps a variety of sets.
 
i think stright up street and stright up park get boaring to watch , i mean sometimes i like to watch stright up street or park but i love all these kids with a wide verity . it seems in park videos more kids are throwing down exciteing tricks that just make you make the =0 face
 
Going to parks takes so much time. Street you just scoot down your street and you have to find something. hahaha thats probaly why its called street.
 
street and park are both equal fun too me.

STREET
streets good for mass speed and getting ya blood running and come flyin up to a stair set and and soaring over the top

PARK
Park. Park is good for the mass air over the fun box and zooming around the place just flying infront of skaters just before you hit them, coming up to a nice looking rail and jumping and feeling the rush of landing your grind.
The thrill you get when you first get into a park for your first time you never want to leave you get dragged out on your knees by your mum

someone get a street comp going some how.

i was actually considering this, theres this nice 4 block in DC thats perfect for a best trick type of competition. its uptown so theres no way we would get kicked out, it could be liek a jam format everyone trying to go one after another to get their trick within a time limit. and i know theres plenty of other spots in DC that we could move to that have different types of street, like ledges, rails, manny pads that we could have a best trick comp on. if people are interested in this, ill definately organize it haha
