Maybe at a certain spot. but there is always something new to do. you can always change it up.

I totally agree, who knows what people will be doing in 50 years. They could make indoor skate parks with like lower gravity in them or something crazy. Not to mention people will always be going bigger, and throwing combos in. Even if we reach a point where there's no new tricks, there will always be more and more combos.

ive thought about it for years. eventually at some point in time there will be a stop in progression. theres only a certain amount of tricks to do, you can combine those tricks to make combos, but still, the amount of combos possible in skating/bmx/scooting etc is a limited number. it is not infinite. therefore at some point in time there are going to be no more new combos physically possible to do. maybe if gravity changes haha. the only thing that can progress is the obstacles things are done on. but even that will one day hit the limit.
its the same with movies and music. its going to get harder and harder to be creative. how many new story lines can there be in a movie before they all start getting similar? how many new songs can come out that sound original and unheard of?

While we're on that metaphor.
New genre's are created, and have been created for 1000's of years.
I can see a few new styles becoming popular, but thats it really. Once the tricks start to dry up, people will try to invent their own style, then a whole new aspect would open up.
It is kinda unlikely, and it could only really happen once or twice.
But that would kinda help progression if we slow down.
The thing i'm annoyed about with scooters is the lack of all around riders..
There are little to no riders who mix styles, i've never seen someone go huge on park, then do some crazy handrail, then destroyed a manny pad.
I'd really love to see it.

Kids saying skatings done progressing= no way.
Am i really the only person thats gonna bring up riding switch and opposite tricks? Barely any one does these and it happens only like 3 times in a vid when people do. Everyone seriously needs to start doing these because its gonna open up huge possibilities in riding

not directing this at danny, but you people on about how we need desperately to get progression. Stop worrying and whining about it. It will happen on its own, so at the moment go out and enjoy riding, instead of shiiting yourself over a slight lack of progression. Who gives a crap.If scootering turns into a progression contest like skating has ( You never see different skater groups getting along) we're all gonna be fooked then.
Just go out and ride...
Just go out and ride...

Don't you guys understand? Lets put it this way. Before i started scooters, Late 2007.. I even thought a simple tailwhip was impossible, Right now things MAY seem impossible, But that will change. Scootering has only just started as an extreme sport, Give it time and more tricks/combos/obsticles/switch/fakie Will be done. Stop worrying and start trying.

danny who in houston is frontwhipping spines?
so yeah, i dont know if anyone mentioned it. but vert, look how crazy (omg he is about to say it) x games skating/inline/bmx is in those huge vert pipes? we haven't even begun to air them properly. I think once one person gets good at that, it will open up a whole new thing for scooters. just like mckeen has been doing fo the street aspect of it.

scotty cranmer, daniel dhers, and one new guy just recently have frontflipped spines. Only scotty and anthony napolitan have front whipped. I don't think anyone's done one over a spine yet
