Here is the Newschoolers.com equivalent for scootering, http://scooterresource.com/

That is super sick and must require a lot of talent, but I still can't take them seriously at all because they are on scooters....

while that is certainly very technical, and super impressive, the aesthetic of that is simply horrendous. like, hard to watch

I'll bet the majority of you kids can't flip on your skis. That kid just flipped on a scooter, into a vert ramp, on cement. Yeah it was overall a little fruity, but don't hate. Kid's got more balance and coordination than most of you, including myself, will ever possess, and that's really what all extreme sports come down to. Oh yeah, and Balls. Somewhere in those skintights, he has them.

Someone get that kid off that scooter and put him on a bmx bike, asap.  His talents are being wasted.

yer that was great and all but IMO scooters are lame and boring, this kid should ditch the scooter and use his mad skills and coordination on skiing or BMX/skateboard.

Another reason why i think scootering will never be cool, its not practical in any way.

skateboarding, biking, skiing, snowboarding, and even roller blading all started out as legitimate means of transportation that have transformed into what they are now.

But things like scootering and ripsticks where manufactured with only trying to fit the extreme sports genre in mind and thus have no practicality to them.

My proof? when was the last time you saw someone scooter or ride their ripstick to work?
