What is it with the New Age and The Older RIders!!??

haha nate you dont hate me and im 14 haha i keep my mouth shut and ride for the wind in my face and cuz i love geting huge air haha
 
People always ask me.... "DO A TripPLe, dO a BrI!!!!111" And I say..... no. I don't do triples and I don't do bris. "WHyyY!?" Because they are both over rated stupid tricks that everyone does. They aren't even that hard and just have no style to them. I'd rather throw truckdrivers, whip to bars, and huge bartwists. Thats my style, and thats what I like to do. "LOllz NoO, u JU5T canT DO thEM HAhaHAhaH4H4HA!1!!1!1"

and they are dead serious....... ridiculous

Everyone rides for fun for fuck sake, why else would anyone ride a scooter? Whether people find it fun to huck tricks flyout or flow parks or do bigass street gaps they should be able to do whatever they want as long as they like doing it. I doubt there are many people on this site who only ride to show off, cause if they cared so much what other people thought then they'd probably be riding skateboards or bmx or something mainstream and accepted. Let kids do briflips and trendy tricks if it's what they enjoy doing.
It annoys me when I see people who are like 'I LIKE DOING ONE FOOTERS CAUSE I RIDE FOR FUN!!!' Everyone pisses about on scooters - no one is doing tricks all the time, it's just when people make videos/take pictures they do trendy tricks and impressive stuff because it's stupid and pointless to get a video of one footer trains which no one will care about.
you dont fuckking get it do you?!?! read brian bostons post he said it all. and peasley cuz its peasley. but everyone rides for the camera and puts out videos like every day its fuckiing reatarded we dont need to see what else you added to your bri whip air. i havent even ever had a mini put out. people only see me ride when i ride with people or at contests and you ask everyone you no if im a cocky asshole or if i think im the shit naw i do fucking old school ass tricks and i have fun riding i dont ride to be the best or win i go to contests to chill with everyone and have a good time thats what everyone needs to get through their dropping testicles to their tiny lil brains
 
i think what most people dont realise is, the majority of the sport is younger riders, mainly under the age of 16. the thing is most younger people dont know any better than to copy tricks and there favourite riders style and they do all this for one reason, to try impress the older riders who inspire them, im pretty sure most riders think teh onlyw ay to impress the older riders in the sport is to copy there style of riding, say if you were a street rider, and you wanted to impress a bowl rider, you would try ride bowls.
this is whats happening and theres no way of stoping it, there will always be copieing in teh sport, if you look at bikes and skateboards, al you see younger skaters or bikers doing is the tricks they see done by there idols, now i doubt anyone can change that happening in this sport.
and the thing about riding for fun is, most kids find riding most fun when there proud of the tricks they do, and if tehy do a trick they saw there favourite rider do, they are sure to be proud of it.
thats pretty much all i have to say.

Fuck doing tricks, I have way more fun flowing a park and having a chill sesh with people than busting my ass to learn a bunch of tricks that everyone and their little brother can do nowadays.
That session in Walnut Creek when you came to California was literally one of the most fun sessions i've ever had. I'm sure it wasnt for you, but it sure as hell was for me. Not cuz i was learning new shit or anything. But you showed me how to flow my own park in a way i'd never seen before. and just fuck around and flow bowls and shitt. you made stuff from my park look so much more fun than they had been before.
I love tricks, dont get me wrong. But this is the way a real sesh should be.

"greatest post award 2009"

freakin' golden haha.

I agree so win. =] <3


on the topic note...



I ride to have fun because its something i love doing. Ridding for me has changed over the years but one thing has remained the same.. The fun. I don't ride to make the best video parts i don't ride to be the best i ride because i love it.

Most of the kids nowadays want to be known and recognized. Its taken me years to get "known" or "Recognized" esp because i have NEVER released a mini not one. I don't strive to release minis or anything of the sort i just love the feeling of ridding my scooter with friends and pushing our own personal limit to strive to be the best that we can be personally.

When you take away all the companies and the bullshit, You're left with just the ridding. What everything should be about. It doesn't matter who's the best. I say fuck the bullshit i'm seriously over it all. I love this shit too much
 
sooo... why are people fighting over there. people are just comming in and saying ''no no no! i ride for fun! im super cerial!" the fact is that the style these days are waacckk, because well theres no style. people just going staight for the qauters n doing some trick. i rather seeing some1 shredding a bowl threw n threw throwing down stezz here n there. just get creative its not a best trick compition.

Ive seen some people at parks near me who can bri and tripple whip but have no style what so ever. And people just think theyre really good because they can do harder tricks but they arent good because theyve got no style and are generally sketchy as hell.

I'm ssssssuper cereal guys. peasley your beast. anyways, another way I look at it is that in the good 'ol days the majority of riders and members on SR were "older" and now that the sport has grown and gained more popularity a new larger crowd has joined in.

Unfortunatley the majority of those new to the scooter scene are 1. Young as f.uck 2. Annoying as f.uck 3. Don't know Jarret Reid from the 12 year old they're argueing with in a thread. 4. don't have style, and are just F.UCKING ANNOYING and ANNOYING as F.UCK

Noob's should have to go through a scoot history class f.uckin A

I wanted to make something like this thread after Conor Davidson replayed to my "21 high 26 wide" post with "That's disgusting."
I mean, I don't give a fuck about him being an admin... been far longer in this sport than him (and even on SR...), I was riding when he was only 10, and I simply can't stand such disrespect...
I know he doesn't even have a hand span of 26" wide, so him not being able to even grab both grips at the same time would probablly be the reason why he fins it disgusting, but that doesn't mean other people don't need/ride such bars with style...

I know I'm not a known name in the scene, and I actually like it, I don't post much on here, mostly reading trough, and the quality of the posts has gone soooo downhill these days it's ridiculous, and most of the posts coming from 16 years and younger kids who are just in for money and free parts...

stop making threads like this, just deal with it. You worry too much about everyone else, stop caring.

Lick on these nuts and suck the dick.

I totally agree with Spicy. And I find it really boring to watch a video with all strait tricks and serious-ass music throughout the entire thing. You gotta have a random songs like the one quoted above^^^ and get some bro shots in there or a random clip of something stupid. So, that's some of my opinion on the topic...

Pretty sure everyone makes up the sport.
Is there something wrong with trying to positively effect a change in a sport?
