Stunt Scooter - Elevate Your Scootering Skills
Stunt scooters, often referred to as trick scooters, are exceptionally robust scooters crafted specifically for performing stunts and tricks. A stunt scooter represents a more recent adaptation of a traditional scooter. The inception of trick scooters occurred when enthusiasts started engaging in "freestyle" scootering, which the conventional scooters could not withstand due to the stresses from stunts.
Attributes of Stunt Scooters
While stunt scooters resemble ordinary scooters, most cannot be folded, and their height is fixed. This configuration ensures a robust and resilient trick scooter.
Many individuals seek a scooter that combines strength with lightness, though these features are not always compatible. Manufacturers are pursuing innovation concerning materials and unique constructions. Consequently, it's possible to purchase specific scooter parts that exceed the cost of an entire scooter.
Manufacturers particularly concentrate on enhancing the following components:
- Strong base (deck) and neck
- Wheels that are both lighter and more sturdy
- Single-piece designs
- Robust bars
- Sturdy clamps
High-priced stunt scooters usually incorporate compression systems like SCS, ICS and HIC. Each possesses a distinctive structure, yet all provide a more reliable steering mechanism.
Standard or Bespoke Trick Scooter?
These trick scooters are all complete ones, constructed using components from a single manufacturer. This guarantees compatibility of the parts and is more economical than purchasing components individually.
You will discover numerous standard trick scooters suitable for both novices and advanced users. The cost of stunt scooters can differ, typically due to the variance in part quality.
Experienced riders often prefer a trick scooter where every component is of superior quality, opting frequently for a custom stunt scooter. This category includes both expert-assembled complete scooters and those you can construct yourself.
