when i got my first scooter (at the age of eleven), i started jumping and doing x-ups, x-up-rides no-footers, pogos, manualing (can't remember but i think i did it with one-foot-style), and easy stalls on curbs. Then i somehow broke one of my headset cup and never repaired it (until april 2005). There was a pause 2001-2004 and i wanted a scooter for my birthday (april 2004) because i didnt knew what would i really like to get for my birthday. Then i start scootering, jumping, doing tricks, then i found myself a friend who did 360s and he give me a link to sites (razorpros, old scooterresource). I got many ideas from these sites and from skatepark where i started riding. I started testing new tricks.

then got good on 1 and liked it so just switched to skooters.

mike and josh started me gettingt in to it
i used to skate but im a ton better at scooting so i quit skating
 
i was riding around the neighborhood and then i just said...i'm gonna scooter. then i quit for awhile and got back into it last ummm february or march
 
Same here, but before I saw any videos and such it was all about dumb flatland tricks and bonelessing stair sets (too lazy to learn bunnyhops). Then started posting on SR (back when it was a PhpBB forum) and all I did was going to a skatepark and doing bunnyhops on a funbox... I tried tailwhips someday and got them. Finally got a b model for christmas and started riding park and street regularly.

me mike bowron and his brother josh bowron were bored so we tried some new "extreme sports" like heelys, flying turtles, and then scootering came in the picture and i got addicted. mike quit but josh has been riding for ages
 
when i wasl ike 11 or whenever that scooter craze was my friend went to new york and brought back 2 yaak scooters (i dont think they were the same company as yak but uh w/e) and we were outside and trying to do 180s and shit and then i got one for christmas like a year later
