This sport as a whole.

We need knowledgeable people to share their knowledge with the younger ones. Sure, we need to ditch some of the rat bag kids but some of them are alright. Instead of laughing at his ride or the way he tries to tailwhip maybe we should help them and offer advice and knowledge on parts and stuff? He's not going to get any better at what he's doing without someone telling him how to do it better.

Quein pargous.

i dont really care about mongo, its not less efficient and i find it way better to get speed quickly if i need to. for the sport more true riding and less kids doing it to be in fasion like at my local, well it's been knocked down now. where i live its 'cool' for little kids to have mgps and to be able to bri, and go in HUGE lines and snake everyone at the park.
i know it used to be hated on but now little kids are doing it not for fun and its just stupid. i ride for enjoyment and am probably the only (or one of the only) real street rider in my city.
although people only do bris and stuff the hate them is too much in some ways. i know they are an easier way of doing scooter flips but they are actually good sometimes like codie donovan doing a manual to bri down like a nine set or something is good to watch but its not good to watch an endless buttercup edit

Less bri flip whores. There's some kid that started scootering about 6-7 months ago and he thinks he's big shit because he can land bri flips but I can't. But yet he still doesn't have double whips flat or 180 bars on lock. That is like half of the fucking population in my area that rides. I try to tell them that its not getting them noticed by better riders, but they won't hear to it lol. I just hope one day they'll realize bri's aren't as cool and they think they are.

You spoke my mind.

Also, I don't know whether it's like this in America but the younger scooterers who ride for fashion around here bitch about you when you ride a skateboard or a BMX for a bit instead of a scooter. Prime example: Today, I was pumping around a car park, suddenly rocks are being lobbed at me by my 'friends' and yelling 'woodpusher'. It really pisses me off.

EDIT: Just read this.

we need less stupid people who need to find any reason to hate. we need to stop calling people "street elitists", when did that even become a real thing? that was like a joke on push it, and it somehow became real life... why?

we need less stupid companies who are just trying to make a buck, and more companies who are focused on quality over quantity. all of you need to realize that extreme sports arent a contest, we're all in it for the same reasons. to break boundaries & push limits. we have not and will not ever need rule books, or guidelines, thats not what this is about. we're not here to nationalize & organize riders into categories/classes. we ride to shred the fucking gnar, and to open peoples eyes. we ride to be our true selves, and to do what we love & enjoy. we ride to get away from everyday bullshit & normal life problems. we are a community first and foremost, and communities need to be united and stick together to survive and function. the younger generation of riders will never be capable of understanding this until the older generation starts to thoroughly portray it.

im so tired of people trying to turn us into skating. does it look like were riding a skateboard? can we do kickflips and tre flips? we have handlebars, 2 wheels, its all metal, its a different sport. to get respect from another sport doesnt mean we have to turn into it.

People don't want to turn our sport into skateboarding, we want to have a more grown-up and legit attitude towards riding, similar to what many street skateboarders portray.

these are true words.

and for us to earn respect were gonna have to have riders with BALLS i don't mean trick wise, for example skaters are respected cause there down for fights n' ----- and not being afraid of people.

but scooter riders usually tend to pussy out of any situation involving violence.

Thus we were considered pussies!
