What got you into scootering?

I used to skateboard, but I knew it was getting boring, I got the idea of riding a scooter, looked for vids, and I found BLT,(It was probably like a day after it came out), and that just got me pumped, now I scoot every day. Thanks BLT :)

like terry said, i started off with my friend mike bowron for a year or so just having a blast. no influences, i just rode a scooter because it was fun and i wanted to see if i could get good at it. he eventually quit a year or 2 later, and i continued learned stuff for a while. Steven T. also completely obliderated one of my video parts, which led me to try to get even better. now im at the point where i know ill be riding for a long time. whether i progress or not.

Id say sorry i did Matt. But when i look at riders like You, and Nate. Two riders who had it tough from me, when they first started...and then i see how you say it made you ride harder, and how Nate said it changed the way he rode...i cant be sorry...Your both jes so amazing now.


I started riding for the hell of it. I looked online and saw Silas Henderson do a flat double whip. and I watched Xcellator and Our Turn, two videos that 90% of you dont even know..lol. And Josh, Ricky, Chris, Silas, Al, Jordan, and KC all motivated me to keep riding.

way back when scooters first came out, i saw it and said "i have to have that". Then i just messed around, and saw this scooter video that i rented from the video store (cant remember it) and i had tailwhips kinda down. then i put it away in my garage for winter and forgot about it. Now in april 2007 i started up again randomly, man i wish i hadnt stopped way back in middle school

When I was younger I liked to scooter around, and I got kind of good.
So I started going to skate parks until I could start landing stuff :]

THen I gave it a break, and came back when I saw a sick vid of terry price :)
