Scootering: A Sport for All Ages and Abilities
Scootering is an enjoyable sport suitable for all age groups and abilities. Riding a scooter provides excellent cardio exercise and helps to develop leg muscles and core strength. Scooter riding also enhances balance and coordination skills, beneficial for other sports and activities. Although kick scooters were invented in the 1920s, modern aluminum scooters only gained popularity in the 90s.
Pro Scooters Are Built for Tricks
Pro scooters, also known as trick scooters, are typically used in skateparks, urban areas, and parking lots. These scooters are designed for tricks and aggressive riding, making them more resilient to pressure and wear. As a result, modern pro scooters are crafted to be lightweight yet sturdy. It's also common to customize trick scooters, whether to replace worn-out parts or to add a personalized touch. Generally, pro scooters cannot be folded.
Big Wheel Scooters Offer Convenient Transportation
For transportation, we recommend scooters with big wheels, with a diameter of 120 mm or more. These scooters, often called commuter scooters, are typically designed for adults seeking a fun and healthy way to travel around town. Kids’ scooters usually fall into this category and feature either two or three wheels. Big wheeled scooters are often foldable, making them easy to carry on public transport, to work, or to school. Big wheels provide excellent directional stability and can handle bumps and small cracks in the road.
