    Problems with tailwhip

    Commit to it. Sounds like you're not jumping high enough and you aren't staying over your scooter. Are you pushing your scooter out in front of you? That's what a lot of people do at first and it makes it almost impossible to catch on flat. Ball up and jump higher than you ever have and keep...

    Eye Sore Thread.

    The industry is already ruined. All of these metallic powdercoated chrome purple decks and shit. What the fuck is everyone thinking?

    lol wide bars make it heaps easier to ride transition. I don't agree with everyone riding 20" high bars though. I had 22x19 blunts and even they were too small. Before that I rode 20x20 but I was still small back then. I think the perfect size is 24x20.

    Eye Candy. (do not post your own scooter!)

    Massive nostalgia trip going through the first few pages of this thread. There is so much shit out now I don't even know what is what. I wish they did a blue SCS earlier.

    My grips experiences/Share your own!

    Can't go wrong with Odyssey and ODI. Only reason I cut my longnecks off was to get my bars rawed. Odyssey grips lasted me like 2 years before I cut them off because they discolored (I had creamish ones and they went a yellow/brown color). If you got them in a darker color I can see them lasting...

    DIY/backyard or at home parks and features!

    Had a homemade grindbox/manny pad made out of two shipping crates stacked on top of each other. I glued and screwed them then just nicked some ply from school for the top sheet. Flogged some angle iron from the local tafe and slapped her on the edges and bob was my uncle. Chucked it on the tip...

    Literally was posting there as you replied ahah. I can't get spoilers to work so I can't really post too much or it will rape everyone's page.

    The Passion that is Riding...Who Feels It? +The Topic of Quitting.

    I don't ride anymore. The scene is plagued with kids and my back hurts too much trying to ride such a small scooter. It was fun while it lasted. Now I spend my money on downhill MTB and cars. Glad to get out of it though, the image is just ridiculous.

    Also check the diameter of your axle.

    wheel/bearing problem

    the internal diameter of a 608 bearing is 8mm? if you're using a 6mm axle that would explain any noises and you've probably royally fucked your bearings by now if you ride hard.

    At least they don't have bearing cups now. I rode a yak in the front once for 6 hours, so you could say things were getting pretty serious.

    Tricks you've done on accident?

    ^ahah I did three quarters of a backflip on a bike once. Dropped in on a 9ft and pedaled the absolute fuck out of it across the flat to fly out of the 6ft at the other end. I did fly out of the six foot, probably about six foot above the coping, and without a single intention I started rotating...

    ^That's a sick whip Throw a trolley bar through the stem and two bolts later you have yourself a beautiful piece of recreation equipment. Also drilling and bolting the slider would come in handy.
