Martin Kimbell : '03 - '07 clips.

Ehh, I believe it's one of the biggest problems of scootering, that there's not enough support for pro riders to keep them riding full time. It's a shame that such talented riders aren't given enough money and opportunity of having an awesome life with comps, roadtrips and generally riding for money to make them devote to scootering. I hope that you're as much talented at what you're going to do in your life as you are at scootering. Be sure to pick up your scoot from time to time.

Definitely one of the most unique and smoothest styles ever.

exactly that.

such good stuff, im really glad you put this out, and just sorta let people know what was up. I hate coming on one day to SR and thinking "wow i haven't heard from ________ on SR in forever" then find out later they stopped riding.

really, really sick video. I hope there is another one someday, just a messing around day video or something, it would make me happy :)

I have been riding for a long time now, there aren't many people left here that were around when I started.

any chance you still have that kickboarderuk picture of you jumping off a plastic ramp, over the fire you edited in, with 3 of you standing on the sides? that was so sweet. wow it's been awhile, it's cool to see those old videos of you again.

Haha, chill guys, I'm not going anywhere, I've still been checking SR all this time and I'm going to keep doing that.

Cheers for the comments though everyone, means a lot, I've just finished my first term at university studying photography, so I'm defiantly not stopping that.

I'm not sure about Montreux, Madis, I might be traveling then, if not then I will probably try to get out there if I can find some cheap flights.

I'm not sure about that pic Sean, the computer with it on has just died, when we get it working again I'll have a look, I'd like to see that shit too, haha.

I can't remember what everyone asked me so just talk to me on aim/msn if you want to ask me something.
 
awww man this sucks

i remeber watching your mini vids on youtube and saying to myself "man i hope i can get good like this". your one of my favriot riders and your the reason i pushed myself to learned new tricks

Pretty small group here, that have known Martin since his Kickboarder site. Know how big of a loss this is to the sport. I know that my first clips to ever be posted online, were on his site over 4 years ago...i believe its the same for Andrus. To see Martin come from posting clips of his Flat Tailwhips.. To this video. Has been Nothing short of amazing. Its been a pleasure knowing you, and seeing you ride a scooter like only you could. Take care, and try not to be a stranger on SR. Later Bro.

haha steven is probably been like 6 years since kickboarder :p
