I miss old SR more than anything. Every 6 months or so I'll jump back on here, peruse the threads, see what's going on in the world of scootering.

I miss verbally eviscerating dumb kids in these forums and then having my SR friends quote them and put my posts in their sig.

I miss bolting pros and saving up money to buy a used (and bent) SR fork. Still have that, btw.

I miss posting videos and CONSTANTLY refreshing the page to read the comments.

I miss all my old homies that I have never met but would interact with on a daily basis here.

I miss afterbang.

I miss black hate bars.

EDIT: OMG reading through this made me remember so many people and things, Kyper offering to fly me dialed scooters in Guatemala so I could keep riding during my mission, EVERYONE hating JD Ben (XD) and liltony, Hep Greg (who is still a buddy to this day) having unreal google image battles with people, the whole Scoot Til Death, son (STD's) crew and our gang wars againsttttt I can't remember, it was Steadman's crew, like World Scooter Crew or something hahaha. I miss the road trips I would take from Utah to Arizona to ride with Steadman and Lil Jon (Aglialoro) who's voice literally hadn't dropped yet and was still under the radar. Madis and Timur(?) and other OG's from like Estonia and Poland and ish. Aaaaah the memories.

The mission was a hard fought one, but we conquered it.
I don't think I had ever copied and pasted the deceleration of independence more times than that, or ever for that matter but my point still stands. I think I ended up making a total of like 14 troll accounts on their site.

Funny though, their board is now pretty much dead and ours is flourishing, all thanks to us.
Yes that's right kiddos, I once did something productive for this board contrary to my normal "just sit here and talk out of my ass" mentality.

Also 15 kids at Clairemont seems impossible to me.

i remember i was visiting my grandmas with my family and i got to use there computer and after months of searching for T bars I finally find scooterresource which had the next best thing. buff bars. I just shit myself on the spot when i was like 10 or 11.
Also when you saw someone else who rode a scooter you instantly became friends (besides the little ones).
Also the crazy driveway kicker sessions! i practically lived on my driveway just always riding my 2ft ramp haha. good times.
