in 2004, if you had a bolted foldy, bmx grips and griptape, your scooter was f*cking DIALED. if you had Yaks, you were f*cking god.

That is a trip. Internet archives are insane. I still remember posting that stuff too... 5 years ago. The whole sport used to revolve around crew videos. I think NBS4 was the first big video that I endorsed and hosted on SR... and then it crashed the site haha.

 

[Chaseme37]

how on earth is your whole post encompassed in the blue square of a quote? including your sig? like wtf?

2 people were enough... in 2004, haha. Me and my brother were basically the polish scootering scene.

 

[AnthonyPellino]

Jesus, I started in 06 and took the sport seriously in like 07, never knew it progressed THAT MUCH!

 

[redline582]

-In 2004 I was probably putting out one of my first minivideos
-I never dreamed of going to a legitimate competition
-Correct me if I'm wrong, but pro models weren't out yet, so people were constantly bickering over which scooter was better: a or b model
-You could keep track of every single decent rider
-KC was a god
-andrew brabank video? when was that thing released? But tailwhip airout like 2 feet was the most ridiculous thing I had ever seen in my life
-Hollywood sports was open
-Andrew wasn't elderly
