Hello Community,
I'm 17 years old and i ride kickboard since i was 9 years old,
i'm from germany, so dont wonder if my english is a little bit different to yours;)
But now to topic:
More and more i got the wish to ride harder and to do some tricks, and to ride in the streets, jumping downstairs and so on.
My K2 Kickboard doesn't fit to this type of riding-style, so i have to buy a new scooter or kickboard, which doesnt brake down when i do stairgaps and 360's.
i need a strong one.
I weigh 60 kg, that's not very much:)
I heard in this community that the scooters from razor(especially the pro) are good,
but i'm from germany and i'm not able to get one:(
What im thinking to do is maybe buy a scooter from micro:www.micro-mobility.com!!
What do you think about that idea???
My favourite would be the micro kickboard compact or the scooter sprite.
Are these two the right for me???
Thank you very much for your comments;)

If you can get a Razor pro then do that for sure ... but if you need to get a micro then i would get the bullet and reinforce it

Do you literaly ride a kickboard? As in 3 to 4 wheels, shitty turning system and a ball instead of the handlebars? If so, you're really hardcore, haha.
Try to find some JD Bugs or Micros on the german Ebay. Ive even bought one there but it was a long time ago.

lol man, as you can read i checked out that this one is not good, it's good for cruising und not for tricks, so chill out;)
I wanne get a scooter which is strong and it has to take everything i want:)
To get the Micro is no problem, but do you thing that they are strong enough??
I often hear, that they break down, if you don't reinforce them.
I wouldn't like to reinforce them because i haven't got the possibility to do that!
You think the Micro Sprite is ok??

Without reinforcements, it's bad. Get at least two pairs of neck plates and some reinforcement pipes.

If i were you, i'd look for JDBug MS-130B models, because they are easier to maintain and modify.

Depends how many scooters and what kind of shipping you choose.

Since skates.com is a company in US, then importing goods to EU must go through customs.
Depending on each country's laws, check your post office or some customs office to ask how much would be the sales tax and customs tax for a kickscooter.

If you got a credit card or a PayPal account, then you can pay for your stuff via one of those. Banks automatically convert the stuff that is taken from your card in $ into Ã?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?â??Ã?¢Ã?Æ?Ã?¢Ã?¢ââ?¬Å¡Ã?¬Ã?â?¦Ã?¡Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?¬.

hmm ok ty for all your comments, but one last question i have;)
Why does the razor pro cost 40 Ã?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?â??Ã?¢Ã?Æ?Ã?¢Ã?¢ââ?¬Å¡Ã?¬Ã?â?¦Ã?¡Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?¬ and is as good as the micro reinforced which costs 260Ã?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?â??Ã?¢Ã?Æ?Ã?¢Ã?¢ââ?¬Å¡Ã?¬Ã?â?¦Ã?¡Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?¬???
Thats very much for a student like me...
maybe i try a normal unreinforced micro, and if i break my first i get a new one(i dont know how lang the warranty lasts) or then i buy a reinforced one:)
