He's best cause he does everything to be the best. And doing everything to be the best is not riding for fun. I think he has right to have a bit diffrent attitude than a kid riding a scooter, as he's a professional biker, he earns money with riding, so the better he is, the more money he has. If he only rode for fun he wouldnt earn enough to get by. But there's no chance that a scooter rider would get by by just riding a scooter so there's no point in not riding for fun right now.

On the other hand, any scooter rider HAS to know some basic tricks and do them consistantly in order to even have fun while 'flowing the park' or etc.

i didnt diss mirra..... i just said its dumb how his little warehouse has more foam and resis that actual ramps. he doesnt ride he "trains" to be the best which he is but to me thats one of the stupidest things you can do because it just ruins riding its not fun.

they can but when that kid says if you dont land a trick then its a wasted day... haha thats dumb why spend your time in a way that will make you feel like you wasted time. then you will end up feeling like riding in general is wasting time and eventually quit. there was a group of kids who did nothing but fly outs trying all the biggest ricks at my park they hated not having fun and quit for skating. i mean there are alot of people who just want to do all the biggest tricks and hate not doing it then they just quit cause they arent the best. so screw the "trick tip vids" and just ride however you ride naturally and have fun. these threads should be locked they are pointless. a video will not automatically make you a super pro.

i dont know why i typed so much i just got caught up in the moment cause i cant even explain the amount of hate i have for people with that mindset. they always think they are above all the lessers cause they can do all these tricks but then they dont even have any style. and im gonna say dave mirra is good but has zero style.

Yeah cory, I think it rather should be like: no trick - good, trick landed - awesome. It kind of sucks tho if you get stoked on some new trick, try it all the time, get close and eventually not land it.

I agree saying a day wasted is gay and stupid. But some kids get a kick out of learning 1 biggish trick to flat. Im not into that stuff but hey whatever toots there horn.

I might not be the most insane scooterer out there, but I still use examples as a basis for my tricks. When I started out, I learned to tailwhip in the wierdest way imaginable (I was still used to skateboarding back then). I think that the trick videos saved my life there because now I can do it correctly. For me, sometimes observing people who are better than me helps me out a lot.

On the other hand, I agree with you when you (and many others in this thread) say that its all about having fun, but you still need to practice a bit. If I really want to learn a trick, I go OK, I will try to land this trick today or this week, but I'll also try to have as much fun as possible while doing it. I don't think that if you set goals for yourself you necessarily automatically have a "go for the gold" mentality. What actually makes you feel really, REALLY good about yourself is when you achieve those goals.
