so whats your story? howd you start scootering?
ill start
wen i was 8 my frends skated alot, so i started to ske with them and go to my local skatepark, then the next summer i went to a skate camp that allowed scooters, there was this kid he was really good, so on the last day of sk8 camp wen i got home, i tried scootering and it was awesome, then i met my frend at the old santa clarita skatepark in valencia, he was even better than the kid at skate camp, so that REALLY inspired me, but after that i kinda stopped until i got a new a, then i started learning new tricks and everything, i think i got 3 new a's b4 i got my first pro model, chirtmas 08, after that i started getting new parts, going to the skatepark more often, and meeting new people

summer of 09. i was hitting up different states to skate in, one of the parks i went to in ri there was this scooterer he was pretty good.(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gxgk2AgmZko) at the end is the scooter. im the kid with the afro. anyways i thought it was cool when i saw that guy doing it. when i went back to scoot i met this kid(kinklaunch) who wanted to start to. so we both started about fall of 09. after he upgraded from his new a to a pro, he gave me his old scooter and thats when i really started. ever since ive been buying alot of his old parts after he upgraded,and built up my own scooter.
and thats my story

when i was 6 i got a new a that came with an RVM 1 DVD and it got put away for 2 years, when i was 8 my dad gave me a floppy disk camera and i went looking for floppy disks, and came across it and watched it, i was amazaed and knew it was something special to me, i rode for like 2 years, getting in peoples way at skateparks, then i started skating, then off and on for like 2 years, then this past spring i picked it up again and my dad finaly agreed to but me a new setup, and i havent stopped since then and dont plan to :)

Scootering

When I was 9 I had an old 20 dollars scooter with 200 mm wheels and I started doin stuff like bunny hops and wheelies. I had nothing to do at my house so I got a new a and started buildin ramps that I went off with my shingaurds and all. Then when I was about ten I went to a skatepark and I still new nex to nothing on scooters and I saw Tyler bonner there with a few of his friends. I didn't know who he was and neither did Anyone else lol. He looked like such a dork when he was 13. His best trick back then in 07 was a superman deck grab. He had a pro mod and I thought it was super sick so he showed me how to tawhip and so I bought some yaks and a pro model and I thought it was the best scooter ..... ever
yeah that's how I started scootering
