Brake help!

[Quamayne]

Probably in the wrong section, so I will apologize in advance.

I ride a modified version of this scooter:

I know, make fun of me.

I also have a size 12 shoe, so on many tricks, like 180 whips, and 180 bars, the outside of my foot pinches the brake, and causes me to pivot/fall backwards.

My question is, is there a simple, cheap way to modify my break/take it off, so that I don't slam the brake every time I do one of those tricks.

if you remove the brake your still gonna have the same problem, your foot will hit the wheel causing it to lock up the same way.your options are make a solid fender to bolt to the deck, save up for a longer deck like the pro model. or get some good grip tape like black magic and really concentrate on foot placement. maybe try riding ski stance or something. hope that helps.

you just need to pay more attention to where your feet land. Many people with big feet ride and they just solve their problems instead of modifying their scooter to match.
