why do you ride a scooter?

[josh gummersall]

what is your favorite part about scootering. it could be like the feeling when you get air or the dizziness after a spin or something i dont know but just what keeps making you want to scooter

for me it's the feeling you get after trying a trick for hours and them you finally land it super clean...that's my favorite part about scootering.

i think just about everybody likes the feeling of landing a sweet trick after trying it forever or just learning a new one...

so probably something like that too for me i guess

[razorscooters]

i like when you work on a sweet trick then get to the point where you can land it most of the time

[DoubleYou]

cause i sucked at skating

 

[CodyChirichiello]

same with doubleyou partially, i got a scooter for transportation because i wasnt good at skating and i needed a better wat to get around. then i stoped and started skating again, got good, then went back to scootering, and now i am prouably going to start up skating more again

 

[razorscooters]

why are ya gonna start to skate i think you should practice all you can for the comps.. if your going

 

[CodyChirichiello]

skating is just so fun

1st i sucked at skating and 2nd im a ton better st scootering

 

[Tyler Boner]

same, but i find this sport way better, more fun, and its all i want to do, all the time.and its fun showing up skaters and bikers,lol, because no one expects anyone to do this stuff. i think i scooter because its new and not everyone does it , like skateing because everyone does it.

I ride a scooter because:
(1) I use to ride bmx, and there were sooo many tricks i wanted to learn... so when i ride a scooter i can do all the tricks that i wanted to do on a bike.
(2) Im not just another skater/bmxer at a skate park, i do something different and unique.
(3) I always feel that i can do the tricks i imagine doing.

 

[Jake Carlyon]

I took up scooters cause i wanted to be original.

 

[gazza707]

i like scooterin cause i hated skateboardin, bmx and stuff, and when i tried a scooter, i lovd everythin about it and on the plus side i was good at it. also i lov landin a HUGE trick

 

[cLeMo321]

because it different and its cool

 

[dreads3213]

i went to the skatepark today and there were more scooters there than bikers and skaters combined, though a lot of them were in 7th or 8th grade and just ride because cary and us better people ride but they only get in the way, so it's not really very out of place in woodinville.
i probably started becuase the learning curve is easy at first unlike skating or bmx-ing which i couldn't do well at all. and then i can flow a lot better on a scooter than either of those and it feels the most natural for me so it's fun

another reason is that skating stuff costs a ton with all the stuff its like 110 bucks for a complete board
