It's sick in a way but not really the good way. In the way that it's awesome that somebody does something cool with something stupid, not that it's really cool.
The gif of the guy flipping the chair is pretty cool, but making that into a sport not so much.
The downside to people doing big tricks on scooters is that it will further legitimize the sport and convince kids to stick with it.
haha I was gonna say something to that effect. Like a bunch of wealthy, well off, spoiled 12 year olds putting rap music in a ski edit is any better/worse. I get it, scootering is gay as aids itself, but people think the same shit about skiing, rollerblading, skateboarding, snowboarding, etc.
I always lol at people who try saying skiing without poles is weird/gay/stupid. Do you realize how fucking silly you look going down a mountain with poles that serve almost no purpose in your hands?
Oh you dog... But I agree, I almost cant ski pow (twice a year we get it)without them. But in general they really do next to nothing. People saying they help them balance are just full of shit.
I don't get you guys that say you aren't impressed. Did you see the stuff those guys were doing?!?!?!?!? None of you could ever do that, or even remotely close to anything like what was done in that video.
that's the shit i remember. problem was it was way too easy to bend the frame but i always thought it would be sweet to do xgames shit on it, but now that i see it on the modern scooters is super gay
dude its not that no ones impressed. it just still doesn't look good. just because you can do something cool with something thats not cool doesn't mean that it is now cool.
A lot of the hate comments could be said about skiing or any other action sport. I really don't understand at all why anyone would hate on ANY action sport. Might as well try doing the sport you hate on - it will put into perspective the difficultly of each sport and the talent the people have that are involved in it.
Jesus I can't stand the way they film... I hate when they pan in to the end of the rail after they rider goes by... its just like snowboarding edits and I can't stand em.
