yeah this is me about 2 years ago. ive been scootering for a long time. its not developing, its been here for a long time. look at www.scooterresource.com. its basically NS for kids who ride scooters.

dont hate, the average five year old at your local skatepark is not an accurate representation of scootering. its like looking at yuppies and gapers and thinking thats where freeskiing is today.

illl admit that its ridicolously impressive and hard but i personally think its kinda gay. im not trying to hate on people who scooter because they have more skill than i probably ever will at anything but i dont think its that cool.

Scootering is dying, not developing.  When I was 10 every single person I knew had one.  Now I'm the only person I know that even owns one.  It is fun to ride when I'm drunk though and I can still tail whip.  Its one of the like remixed ones though with the little front shocks and the raised platform.  Its even got a wheelie bar on it. Haha

But ever since I replaced my broken skateboard I haven't even looked at it.

wrong use of the word "yuppies." i pretty sure that it means when chineas people wear US name brand cloths, i even learned about this in global studies.

Yeah yuppies are "young urban professionals", a term coined in the 80's.  These days it pretty much just means preppy suburban white kids though.

My roommate brought his old razor scooter to school and we bust it out when we're drunk.  I tried to jump over a bunch of stairs and fucked my shit up.  Scootering is hard.

while it looks gay as shit i have to give props to anyone who has as much skill as the guy in the first vid. i mean think about all the shit they took trying to get that good. now they can show up at the park and not get the shit kicked out of them.

we should just bring back everything from the 90's and beyond. devolve and be really lame again. get all our pornography and fashion tips (plaid vests and straight leg jeans) from Playboy. girls could grow their bush out. fuck Playstation let's play poker. bring back STD's.

ride scooters.
