i actually didnt scooter that much, i used to go school everyday with it because i had no bicycle, one day i realized i can do tailwhips and 360 without problem, i was pretty excited about it so i looked information on internet ( i couldnt find any scooter video, eh how is that possible :p ), my friend told there is one extreme forum what has also subforum called "scootering", an estonia forum, so i met Madis from there and there it all started i guess,
but yeh im riding because of friends and for fun, sometimes also for tricks because i love them =p

I dunno why I started riding, I'd always had a scooter almost all my life. I couldn't do squat on BMX cause I was too small and I didn't have a skateboard. I'd always tried to do tricks, mostly no footers and x-ups. I eventually looked for videos on the internet. Didn't really find much. And then i found SR, and then I was hooked :)

i saw ryan davis, then found a scooter in my garage, and the next day was christmas, and i asked for a grind rail, and i started there, at my grandma's house, jumping on/off curbs and grinding.
 
I didnt know that other kids scootered so I thought I should do it and I looked it up on youtube saw KC and Josh Toy and just inspired me to ride,

Found SR browsing around the web in like late 05', but didn't like it so I started skating. Then in July of 06' I found SR again and because I had gotten a little better and had started riding at the park, liked it lots more. So I quit skating and rode scooters.
 
it is something different. something not many other people did. progressing was soo much fun and a lot of stuff is an adrenaline rush. i got sick of skating and wanted to do something new. i loved it, kept going, found SR somehow, loved it waaaay more, and now still doing it, loving it, and progressing.
 
i got a scooter after i learned how to tailwhip my friends scoot.

and i mainly still ride them because i love the feel of riding

I was walking in the city center about 4 or 5 years ago... While drinkin pepsi I noticed a group of skate-punks riding near a city fountain. "Oh my God!! That looks soooo disgusting!!" - I thought, and it really was so, because skateboarding had just appeared in Perm at those days. But... I felt strong sense of belonging to this lifestyle. And as because I am the greatest noncomformist in the world, I wanted to do it MY way. The streets of Perm city whispered me to shred them with something new and shoking! ...My father helped me by buying a JDBugMs-130b in Germany
