Isnt it the best feeling ever knowing your scooter is dialed in? I probably have the most inexpensive scooter on this website, but after making modifications, I not have it where the bars dont wobble back and forth and tightened everything up. For once my scooter doesnt sound like a train wreck when I land on it. Now all I need is some grip tape.

I know lame...

One more thing, I have been trying tobogans for the past couple days, I have only got them a couple times. Any tips for them? I feel like I cant get the tuck right or something.

I can grab my shoe, but not quite my brake plate region.

Any tips on hopping higher? My bars are relatively low (personal preferance). I can jump pretty high, but cant quite get over a foot.

Can't wait to have a dialed scooter again. Want a 4.5" deck, scs, 21x16 bars and I already have pinned french id's and good wheels/bearings. Bars and scs are in the making, now just to wait for the new decks to come out so I can make up my mind.

Haha, yeah having an extremely dialed scoot feels so amazing. Due to snapping my deck, going back to an old deck, and the rains in SoCal, ive got bored and worked on my scoot and got it completely solid. No noise, no rattling or anything.


And for Toboggans, you tuck your knees to your stomach/chest, and dip the front end down, turn the bars and grab your dropouts, backwheel.

Are you supposed to hold it? Because I have been doing them out of bunnyhops and I just kinda brush my hand on it.

Flat they're pretty much impossible to hold, just grab the dropouts for a split second and turn the bars, basically a tailgrab with the bars turned since you don't have enough time to tuck on flat.

Well from my BMX instincts, I can get the bar turn and dip the front end perfectly. I found them a lot easier to do when you dip the end and push foward.
