Matt McKeen Boxes Limited Promo VIDEO

2012-01-26T22:13:00.004-06:00

Matt McKeen doing what he does for Boxes Limited. Killing it. Street talent at its finest. To anyone that has honestly questioned Matt McKeen when it comes to being one of the leaders not only in the street game, but in this sport. You obviously haven't known Matt long enough to know what he's accomplished, and how he has proven himself time and time again, with sometimes even throwaway edits. His promo below has some ridiculous stuff as well, so definitely check it.

MGP SoCal Tour

2012-01-26T19:21:00.007-06:00

MGP recently finished up their tour in So Cal. Tyler Bonner sent this video to me the other night, and you guys will definitely want to check this out. Ryan Williams, Terry Price, and Tyler Bonner, and the other MGP guys all in one video? And with some of the newer riders, Joe Armstrong, Collin DaSilva, Peter Jungsberger, and Jeremy Beau all killing it. Come on, it doesn't get better than that. Check it out below.

Boxes Limited Matt McKeen Signature Shirt Preview

2012-01-26T19:17:00.005-06:00

Boxes continues to set the bar when it comes to apparel in our sport, with Matt McKeen's new Signature Shirt set to drop this Friday, along with his new video part. The shirt simply looks bad ass. For more info read below.

Boxes Limited/Lit: Dylan Kasson and Josh Young City Grind Edit

2012-01-25T21:03:00.000-06:00

This is sick. Proto and Boxes' Dylan Kasson tripped it up to Michigan to ride with Tilt's Josh Young, as well as Kelly Zmijewski. At first I thought they stole the song from my summer park edit but it turned out just to be a crappy remix. But anyway the riding was dope. This park seems to be the place to do heelless noseblunt grinds. Also, word on the street has it that Josh's Tilt edit that he's been working on for over a year is gonna be released soon. Get hyped for that guys.

Alexis Cuvillier Taravana Scooter Wear Promo

2012-01-25T00:26:00.003-06:00

Ok, straight to the point, Alexis kills it in this video. Mix of park and street, with his street clips probably outshining his park clips. It's pretty crazy to see how tech these guys can get, makes me wish some American riders would start stepping up their tech/street game too.

Video Edited by Jeremy Suchet

Matt Tyler Fall/Winter Edit

2012-01-24T21:21:00.000-06:00

This is a video Matt has been working on for a long time, since he completed his summer edit. Matt is a park shredder and can throw down on the streets as well. He does some pretty crazy tricks in this, kills heelwhips. Bummer about the flyout banger though.

Kyle Stead

2012-01-24T20:57:00.000-06:00

Another upcoming rider is Kyle Stead. Kyle hails from Sydney, Australia. I guess I don't know much else about him but he's got some good clips in this for sure. That banger is so nutty.

Kenny Griffin VertX Sponsor Video

2012-01-24T20:49:00.000-06:00

This is a young kid from northern Cali. Kenny does some cool stuff and some wack stuff but he definitely has potential. He's a name to remember in the future for sure. And if you don't remember it, he will make sure you see his name...trust me on that haha.

Raymond Warner: Plain and Simple

2012-01-24T12:54:00.002-06:00

Raymond is a close friend of mine, and someone who I really respect in this sport. He has a really great outlook on everything, and it shows in this video. Raymond has been killing it lately in the competition scene, finishing top 3 in almost every contest he's been entering. And let's face it, with the competition today, that ain't easy.

The below video was filmed and edited by Chris Blanton, who did a really good job. Raymond breaks down how he got started in the sport, and why this sport means a lot to him. Last few clips in the video are just mind blowing. And yeah for the record that was 7, over a box.

Benjamin Friant "Clips in the Trash"

2012-01-23T15:47:00.000-06:00

Some more insane footage from one of the world's best riders. This is all footage from the end of 2011. Super crazy park and street lines. I feel like the backflip to can plant would be really painful on your knee/ankle...BenJ is just a superman.

The Box Is Back Video Up

2012-01-22T02:29:00.006-06:00

Ok, when I heard that Ryan Gould, Nick Darger, Raymond Warner, Dan Holm, and Matt Somers were going to be making a box edit, I got stoked. After watching the edit, I immediately had to watch it again. These guys straight killed it. All of them ride for Scooter Zone, and Matt and Dan were here from the East Coast. Just complete tech madness, and I always enjoy that rare Nick Darger footage. Watch and enjoy.

Erik Feenstra/Josh Nathan Iphone Edit

2012-01-19T23:17:00.000-06:00

I wouldn't normally post a riding video filmed by a cell phone, but this isn't normal riding. This was filmed last August...Still so crazy.

Boxes Limited Facebook Q and A's with Dylan Kasson part 2

2012-01-19T21:27:00.004-06:00

You guys can find Part 1 a little bit below this post, but here is Part 2 for all that were waiting for it. Really love these videos, and I see nothing but good things happening constantly for Boxes. Sky is the limit for this company, and its riders. Love the questions asked in this one as well, and Dylan's answers were pretty spot on. I find myself really interested in hearing riders opinions on some of the stuff that was asked in here.

I don't care who you are...these are not warm ups. Get to see that hurricane from the Boxes ad, so nuts. Switch whip down that gap by the way. His Boxes promo is still yet to come out, I hope we get to see some "good" footage in that haha.

Florian Toegel Unseen 2011 Footage

2012-01-19T06:44:00.002-06:00

Florian is releasing all of this unseen footage, most of which he says is throwaway. I dunno about that, cause some of this stuff is pretty tight. Especially considering all the footage is 8 months - 1 year old. Florian will be starting fresh in 2012 with new footage, can't wait to see it.

Trevor Fitzpatrick VertX Sponsor Video

2012-01-19T00:32:00.000-06:00

Trevor has a lot of potential. He shows that he definitely has a lot of skill in this video (last line is pretty unreal). I just want to fast forward and see what hes doing a year or two down the line.

Dom Marconi VertX Park Video

2012-01-19T00:28:00.002-06:00

Here is some throwaway footage that Dom, VertX's team manager, released recently. I want to see the real footage.

Stop SOPA/PIPA!

2012-01-18T12:47:00.000-06:00

Whats going on with Inside today? Well today, like many other websites, we are "blacking out" (or just showing this post today) our content to protest bills being proposed by the US Congress, as well as to educate others on what these proposed bills would do if passed.

The Protect IP Act (PIPA) and Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) are proposed bills aiming to end online copyright infringement. If they go through, US law enforcement would be given the power to shut down websites hosting or linking to copyrighted content, basically censoring the Internet.

Why does this matter to you? Inside Scooters is a website that would be effected, due to the videos with copyrighted songs that we embed daily for you guys to see. Not only that, but websites like Google, Reddit, and Facebook would be ordered to hide links to copyrighted material, or even go down completely.

Want to do something about it? Sign this petition to vote no on PIPA and SOPA hosted by Google- https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/ If you want to learn more, you can check out these links:

Ben Duncan Summer Mix

2012-01-18T00:05:00.000-06:00

Ben Duncan may be Australian, but his riding definitely stands out from the typical Aussie riding. More Friendly style than flippidy do dah, which is nice to see. Some good stuff for sure.

Boxes Limited Facebook Q and A's with Dylan Kasson part 1

2012-01-16T17:36:00.003-06:00

We've seen the Boxes Limited Facebook Q and A's before, with Brandon Kilbury. Now we get to hear from one of the most opinionated, and at times, outspoken riders in the sport, Dylan Kasson. Despite what one may think of Dylan, it is impossible to deny his skill on a scooter. He faced a lot of adversity starting out in the sport and rose above it all to become the rider he is today. Check out Part 1 of Dylans Facebook Questions below.

p.s. Yes there is some DK footy in there as well.

Mohamed Alsulaibi Throwaway

2012-01-16T15:26:00.002-06:00

This is all Mohameds throwaway footage, as he gets ready for his 2012 Edit. I know people are going to comment on his stance, but at this point I don't think it will be changing anytime soon, haha. Guess we will find out with his 2012 Edit. Some of this throwaway is pretty sick though.

Tyler Clayton Edit

2012-01-16T15:24:00.002-06:00

Supposedly Tyler has been riding a week... yes a WEEK. He rides for Over The Top, and I am sure he will be getting looked at by some other companies after this. Video speaks for itself.

LIT'd: Roman Smith

2012-01-15T21:06:00.000-06:00

Roman Smith AKA RJ is one of Josh Young's close riding buddies. It definitely shows in his style and the number of awesome spots shown in this video. Josh pretty much fawns over this kid, and has trained him well. Oh, and he's just 13 years old.

Terry Price 2011 Recap

2012-01-15T18:03:00.001-06:00

Terry hasn't really had a real video part in a long time. So this is pretty cool to see, a bunch of clips filmed over the past year, from Woodward to everywhere he went on tour with Madd. All those icepick combos were so nuts.

Kingsley Okocha

2012-01-15T17:45:00.000-06:00

This is a bunch of footage that Philip Long edited for Kingsley. Kingy's riding has progressed a whole lot over the past couple years, he really shreds street (rails in particular) now. Hope to see him drop more footage over the next year.

Nick Donatelli: Winter ScooterZone/The EMP Edit

2012-01-15T17:22:00.001-06:00

Nick Donatelli rides for ScooterZone as well as his own clothing company, theEMP. This stuff is just throwaway footage but it's still super good. You can check out theEMP's apparel at theEMP.bigcartel.com.

Jona Humbel ECX Promo

2012-01-14T23:52:00.001-06:00

Yeah, this kid has been riding for I'm pretty sure less than 2 years. I wish I progressed half as fast as Jona does. From his driveway box videos hes put out earlier this year I could tell he was gonna be good. Definitely can't wait to see him a year or two down the line.

Jon Zegarra 2011 Footy

2012-01-14T13:33:00.001-06:00

Such nice, clean riding as always from Jon. And his tech his only getting better as well, who else is gonna feeble smith 3 whip that nicely? Last trick came outta nowhere too. Check out the vimeo link if the video is blocked for you.

"Competition Day" ft Zig Short, Max Peters, and Mitch Baldry by Phillip Long

2012-01-13T18:29:00.005-06:00

Shot and edited by Phillip Long, these three ELYTS riders give you some insight on how the competition day was for them. SD6 was one of the biggest competitions to date, so it's cool to see what these guys thought about it. It's too bad we didn't get to hear from other riders as well. Check it out below.

MGP Uk Christmas Parties + MGP West Coast Signing Pictures

2012-01-13T15:50:00.009-06:00

MGP isn't just big in Australia, it's big everywhere, The UK included. The MGP UK Team is stacked with talent, and in the below video you'll get to see some of that. They recently made this edit made up of the MGP UK riders + The Scoot Mag guys who covered the events. You really get a feel for just how much the kids out their love MaddGear. Some bangers in here as well, and Terry Price footage which is always a treat.

Also recently, Ryan Williams and Terry Price of MGP Aus and MGP UK have been in California, and they've been quite busy. Both rode in the SD6 competition, and they also did a signing at West Coast Ride Shop. Below are some photos of that, and it doesn't get any better than Terry Price in a Penguin Hat, does it?

Keep checking Inside-Scooters for all news and updates relating to MaddGear.

Two Riders on the Come Up

2012-01-13T13:13:00.002-06:00

These two guys are on their way up in the sport. One of them is a New York native, and the other rides frequently with Jon Devrind, one of my favorite riders to watch.

First up let's look at 14 year old Evan Barba. Riding with Jon Devrind has definitely paid off, and you can see it in his style. One thing that worries me sometimes though, with riders that ride so much with one person, is that they become mini clones of that rider. Let's hope that doesn't happen with Evan. His riding is clean and smooth, and you can tell he's only going to get better.

Next up we got a video featuring a rider from NY, Ro Capote. This video was edited and sent to me by his friend Bryant Colon, and I'm glad he sent it in. Ro rides both park and street in the video, and even a little bit of driveway footy. I definitely think he excels in the street department over park, and I hope he puts out a serious street edit in the future. Really raw style. Check it out.

Ro Capote from Bryant Colon on Vimeo.

Dakota Schuetz Throwaway

2012-01-12T21:44:00.003-06:00

Dakota is considered by most the #1 Ranked rider in the world, when it comes to competitions that is. To put it simply, if he enters a contest, there is a good chance he will take home the win. Hate on it all you want, but it's been proven time and time again. Anyways this video, is not Dakota riding in a competition. This is footage from his last trip to Las Vegas. It is all throwaway footage. Check it below.

p.s. You're probably going to want to mute the song..

I take no responsibility for what is said in the comments that will be under this video. Keep it clean guys lol.

Jona Humbel Six Trick Fix

2012-01-12T21:32:00.002-06:00

Jona says he broke his butt cheek while filming this, so that's why we don't see a banger at the end. But he still definitely kills it in this Six Trick Fix on his grind box. Really like watching Jona ride.

Remember guys if you wanna do a Six Trick Fix for Inside-Scooters, all you gotta do is the following..

1. Pick an obstacle. (grind box, box jump, ledge, quarter pipe, rail)
2. Film your six best tricks on it.
3. Email it to me! 1Stevent1@gmail.com

2 for 1 Featuring John Verhun New Edit + Mathias Holst and Hugo Svare Edit

2012-01-12T18:32:00.003-06:00

Couple of new videos for you guys.

One of them is from a pretty unknown rider, John Vehrun from New York. From the looks of this video John can whip and spin both ways, and ride a bit of park and street. He has a long ways to go still, but this edit shows a lot of promise.

Next up is Denmark riders Mathias and Hugo. They get really tech in this little edit, and show off some smooth grind combos. I'm starting to really like watching Mathias's riding. Check it below.

Kirk Svensson Sky High Promo

2012-01-12T14:25:00.000-06:00

I usually don't get stoked on videos of my kids that I didn't film/edit, and so when this came out last week I was a little bummed. But I watched this again today and was hyped. I actually did film a pretty good portion of this. Filming Kirk can be a bit of a challenge but with a few words of encouragement he'll usually put it down.

Inside the Lens: Week #48

2012-01-11T22:26:00.000-06:00

Jeremy Beau Super 60

2012-01-11T18:36:00.002-06:00

Haven't had a Super 60 up in a while...so Jeremy Beau decided to make one and send it in. I haven't heard a whole lot from this kid in a long time, but it looks like he's on Maddgear now? Still looks like hes shredding the ramps, classic J-Beau style.

Brenden Orton

2012-01-11T17:59:00.000-06:00

This kid has a pretty sick park style. Whips both ways so well, and was that a front scooterflip I saw? I had to watch this without sound so even without music it was an enjoyable edit.

Razor ProXX, ProXXX, and Black Label 3.0 now at TwistedScoots

Happy New Year from ShopECX

2012-01-11T17:10:00.004-06:00

Recently the ECX Team took a trip to Maryland to go to the Charm City Skatepark. You get all these guys in one spot, and you end up with a nice edit. I always love seeing Jon's riding. Everyone on ECX shreds pretty hard in their own way. Check out the edit below.

Starburst = Street!

2012-01-10T23:36:00.002-06:00

STREETS!!!

Video provided by Nick Darger

Julian Zieger Blunt Web Edit

2012-01-10T23:27:00.003-06:00

This video features Blunt Europe rider Julian Zieger. It's pretty much all park in the edit, so if you're not down with that, you can skip it. He has some sick tech stuff, but he does a few too many bri flips in my opinion. Still a good edit. Check it.

Asylum

2012-01-10T21:35:00.000-06:00

Here's an edit Tommy Daddono filmed at Asylum skatepark featuring some of Sky High's riders. Its so good to see Tommy back in the filming game. He's one of the best in our sport, HD or SD. I'll always prefer to see him with a VX in his hands, though.

Mathias Holst Park Edit

2012-01-10T17:36:00.004-06:00

When you take Elyts AM and Skatepro rider, Mathias Holst, and stick him into a park, this is the edit you get. Mathias is primarily a street rider, which you can easily see in these clips. Some really good riding, and you also get to see the Addict Deck in action. Check it out below.

Thanks to Jakub Wolk for the video, and filming and editing.

Kaleb Kier Ten for 10

2012-01-04T17:49:00.002-06:00

At only ten years old, it's sick to see Kaleb ripping like this. I like seeing younger kids that show real potential. Good to see that the sport has a bright future with the existence of all these young up and comers. You guys can catch Kaleb at the SD6 contest this weekend. For now check out his Ten for 10.

SD6 Flyer

2012-01-04T00:58:00.000-06:00

The 6th edition of the San Diego Scooter Competition is going down this Saturday. I am so bummed not to be able to be there. Pros from all over the country (and the world?) will be there so if you want to watch/ride with/bro out with the best, I suggest you make plans to attend.

VertX Pro Sponsorship Competition

2012-01-03T18:12:00.001-06:00

US team manager for VertX Dom Marconi recently informed me of an ongoing competition to find riders to put on the team. Like the Lucky Flow team competition, but VertX is actually looking for riders to sponsor on the Professional level. VertX hopes to find 5-6 riders to put on the team. What exactly are they looking for? What do you need to do to be considered for the team? Read on:

Requirements are-

- No longer than 3 minutes
- Uploaded to Youtube
- Title must be *Insert name* VertX Sponsorship Video
- Link to video emailed to vertxcomp@live.com
- Must be sent in by February 7th

Along with the video, riders must submit a brief resume including:

- Name
- Age
- City and state
- How long you have been riding
- Why you want to be added to the team
- Why you should be chosen for the team

Dom also had this to say:

- I better not get any emails with major grammatical errors EI dont tok lyke dis
- Make sure you take your time with your resume as well as your video. BE BROFESSIONAL
- The videos will not only be judged on riding, but on editing and filming. We would prefer the team to not be promoted by kids filming on their cell phones.
- I don't want to see an all-street or an all-park video (unless you are really good at one). I like to see a mix of riding. (Once again, unless you are very skilled in one or the other area).
- Have fun and show me what you got! This is a great opportunity and the stakes are high!

Seems like a good opportunity if you've been looking to get sponsored, good luck guys!

The Muffin Crew Last Clips of 2011

2012-01-02T18:28:00.003-06:00

I really love watching videos from The Muffin Crew. Maybe it's the fact that they're from France, and French riders shred, hard. Either way I'm sure you guys will like this video. These are the last clips filmed in December 2011. Time for a new year for these guys, and lots of new footage!

P.S. You will also notice a clip of Thomas O. Yes, for those who might be wondering, that is Thomas Obadia aka Bibito! He is back on scooters. What up.

Boxes Limited Welcomes Its Newest Rider....

2012-01-02T00:50:00.005-06:00

Boxes is not kidding around.. The Team of riders they have representing them and their apparel is no joke. They got some of the best talent in the world, and with the addition of their newest rider, they are only further seperating themselves from other companies. Read the promo below to learn about their newest rider.

Boxes Limited Introduces Chema Cardenas to the Team!

Boxes Limited would proudly like to introduce Chema Cardenas! Hailing from Guadalajara, Mexico, Chema has remained relatively unknown in the Scooter Industry, but with his recent Proto Scooters part being released online, plus this new Welcome Promo. You can start expecting to see a lot more Chema in the coming year!

After watching that edit it's clear that Chema is setting a new bar in the street scene. He brings such a raw style with his riding, that it makes it almost too addicting to watch. With hops that are pretty much unrivaled, and balls the size of grapefruits.. You got yourself a rider who easily sits among the top 5 street riders in the sport, hands down.

ECX Team Riders Six Trick Fix

2012-01-02T00:47:00.004-06:00

Recently some of the riders over at ECX filmed some Six Trick Fix's. Check em all out below. I don't know about you guys, but I'd like to see Jon refilm one, on a nice manual pad or ledge! And where is teh HepGreg?!

Brandon Kilbury GoPro clips

2012-01-01T16:31:00.000-06:00

BK strapped a GoPro to his helmet and hit up Talent Skatepark for a session, and this is the result. GoPro videos make everything look so easy. They also make me want to puke.

Jake O'Donnell Lucky Edit

2011-12-31T19:07:00.000-06:00

Jake is one of the most unique/fun riders to watch. You never know what trick he's gonna do next. He is definitely deserving of a spot on Lucky's flow team.

Flavio Pesenti and Martin Andre: Tac Tac Bang Bang!

2011-12-30T11:32:00.000-06:00

Guest writer Kirk Svensson says, "This shit was bangin." That pretty much sums it up. These guys are crazy, some of the most ridiculous grind combos I've ever seen.

Scooter Zone's Matt Somers Driveway Edit + Justin Robertson How To 540 Air

2011-12-29T03:41:00.004-06:00

Matt Somers can kill it in the streets, we already know that. But that doesn't mean he can't still have fun in his driveway. Just a really chill edit, with some sick tech riding. Loving this video. Last trick is just, what.

Next up we got Scooter Zone's only Canadian rider, Justin Robertson teaching us how to do 540 Airs. We've seen Justin boosting em in videos for a couple years now. Here's how he does them.

Christmas Edit from Gizmania

2011-12-28T16:24:00.003-06:00

George Gartlehner and Tobias Mayer, from Austria, ride for Gizmania, and got this edit together for Christmas. A smoking Santa? Ohh yeaaah. Check it out below.

Kodye Gregory Spits Fire For a New Set up and Blunt Scooters is now Envy in NZ and America

2011-12-28T15:54:00.005-06:00

Ok so I know haters gonna try and hate, but Kodye killed it with this video. Envy was running a christmas contest, basically the person who could put together the best rap, would win Ryan Upchurch's complete set up. Pretty obvious that Kodye had this on lock down. Check out his winning submission below. Congrats Kodye.

Also, as most people know, in Australia Blunt Pro Scooters, was changed to Envy Pro Scooters. However, until now it remained Blunt in New Zealand and America. Well not anymore. Blunt will now be officially known as Envy in Aus, NZ, and America. Let it be known that in Europe and The UK, it will remain Blunt Pro Scooters. I personally like the name change a lot, and the new products coming out are getting a lot of good reviews. So just know that even though the name is changing, the quality of products is not. If you wanna follow what Envy is up to on a daily basis, hit up their Facebook by clicking the link below.

Connor Love and Colton Freemantle Day Edit

2011-12-28T15:46:00.003-06:00

Connor Love is a rider who slips under the radar most of the time, which is unfortunate cause he's got some skill. Colton is an up and comer, and a big supporter of Inside-Scooters. They recently got together and made this day edit. Nothing really ridic in here, just good clean riding. I miss day edit videos like this. I'd like to see full edits from them sometime in the future though, so we can really see what these guys can do. For now check out the day edit.

Proto Catalyst 2010

2011-12-26T20:56:00.002-06:00

Yes, this is it. The whole thing. The best DVD/team video to document scooter riding. Proto uploaded it to their Vimeo channel today for everyone, pretty nice little late Christmas gift if you ask me. I think I speak for many when I say this is an inspiring video. So if you haven't (or even if you have) seen it, get a drink, grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy.

I hope this means their next video will be done soon...

Montreux 2011 Competition Video

2011-12-25T20:22:00.000-06:00

Another video from this past April's Montreux competition in Switzerland came out recently. So many amazing riders were in attendance, such a crazy mix of different styles. Ridiculous tricks from everyone throughout the whole video.

Merry Christmas From Inside-Scooters!

2011-12-25T16:59:00.001-06:00

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you all got everything you wanted, and if you didn't, stop being a spoiled ass brat and be glad you got anything at all! Just kidding, Merry Christmas guys.

Vincent Kudrna- Welcome to Blunt

2011-12-25T01:17:00.000-06:00

So Blunt recently added this guy, Vincent Kudrna, to the team. I don't know much about Vince other than that he lives in California and does some crazy tricks. I'm sure he'll be a great fit to the team. This was also filmed in just three days, so yeah.

Warick Beynon 2011 Envy Edit

2011-12-23T21:32:00.000-06:00

Warick, or Wazzeh as he is usually called, is one of the sport's most charismatic riders. Riding with this guy is pretty cool, he's always super friendly with people. While this video is all park I feel like he could definitely make an enjoyable street video. Not too many people have those peg nose manual things as dialed as he does.

Jon Zegarra AOS v2 Clips

2011-12-23T12:48:00.000-06:00

Jon's riding is so nice to watch. He puts down smith combos with style and ease...I guess that means steeze. He talks a little bit about the new Blunt/Envy AOSv2 deck as well, he makes it look pretty good.

Matt Mckeen/Joey Gilman

2011-12-22T01:21:00.000-06:00

Yeah I guess these guys are alright. That Matt fellow can do a couple tricks. That tooth to whip though, is that Matt's scooter? I feel like such a scooter kid noticing that kinda thing.

Jason Griffiths 2011

2011-12-21T23:47:00.000-06:00

Footage of Jason is few and far between but its always good. All these Magray guys shred. Jason's front feebles are so dialed.

Scooter Kids

2011-12-21T19:32:00.000-06:00

This is a documentary by Jon Knudtson that was released a couple weeks ago. I was going to post it but at the time there had already been another docu on the front page so I set it aside and promptly forgot about it. Anyways this features the scooter scene in the Boston, Massachussetts area. Its pretty cool hearing what the skaters have to say about us. Nice job Jon.

Bobby Pantano Lucky Promo 2

2011-12-21T19:26:00.000-06:00

Bobby's combos just keep getting more and more tech. It also looks like hes starting to go a bit faster with his tricks, and getting a bit cleaner. I just want to fast forward and see this kid in a year or two. Also, that capped street hubba is such a bummer, it looks good.

Razor Phase Two Model Review by Royce King + Team Razor Video 22

2011-12-21T15:49:00.004-06:00

There's been a lot of discussion over the past months about Razor's Phase Two products. In this video review, we get a first hand look at some of them, by Razor's own Royce King. Royce has been one of my favorite riders for a couple years now, and he has some clips at the end of the review. Check it out below.

The whole deck looks really sick. Not feeling the fork design at all. Bars are just your standard RAD Crow style bars, and I've yet to try out the wheels. If anyone has tried out various parts on the scooter, let us know in the comments.

Next up is Team Razor Video 22. Featuring Big Ron, Tanner, Cary, and Beggs. Good stuff by all the guys.

"Razor, I can't do the helmets man!" - Cary

Eric Ostrom Ain't Dead.

2011-12-21T00:23:00.002-06:00

Ostrom is one of those guys who you rarely get to see footage of, but when it drops, you cherish it haha. Recently Eric stumbled upon these clips, and had no idea they even existed haha. It is some pretty old footage, but it still shreds. Check it out. Rail ride 180 heel out was nastyy.

Nitro Circus Live Promo

2011-12-20T21:56:00.000-06:00

So MTV is going to be airing episodes of Nitro Circus, featuring footage from the Australia/New Zealand Live tour. As you may remember Andrew "Scoots" Broussard was able to be a part of that tour, so I'm guessing that means there'll be a bit of scooter riding on tv. Cool stuff, progression for sure.

Short Box Sesh with Jason Griffiths and Dan Barrett

2011-12-19T21:41:00.000-06:00

Sorry about the lack of videos lately, I've had limited internet access while staying at Jeffrey Mroz's house. Anyways, this is a video on a box and a rail from Jason Griffiths and Dan Barrett. Yet another insane grindbox edit, filmed in 20 minutes.

Blunt Europe Tour Fall 2011 Edit - Part 1

2011-12-17T10:16:00.004-06:00

Blunt Pro Scooters had their pro riders from Europe on a tour for a while now. Hitting up all kinds of cities over there. I've released small previews of each stop in the past on ISB, and now we got Part 1 of the full edit. The Blunt riders in Europe have so many various styles, it really makes this video fun to watch. Check it out below, and look out for Part 2 which we will be releasing here on Inside-Scooters in the near future.

Stefan Hefner Lucky Opus Part.

2011-12-16T02:03:00.001-06:00

I'm writing this twenty minutes before its actually out, and I'm stoked. Stefan has no fear when it comes to rails and hucking it down the gnarliest gaps and sets. Yet he still balances it out with some pretty tech tricks. Second to last clip might be the craziest thing to go down at Hollywood High (not that the last clip isn't insane though haha). Great part.

KMAC- Ask Me

2011-12-15T20:17:00.000-06:00

This is a music video made by Tyler Garcia and his production company, Go4Broke. Tyler filmed and edited the whole thing. Kmac is the guy who films Tyler riding scooters so thats kinda cool.

Stefan Hefner- Raw Hype

2011-12-15T16:03:00.002-06:00

Hyped am I now. Stef kills it, I definitely cannot wait for his Lucky Opus part to drop tonight. Its gonna be so good.

841 Tribal Wheels Now Shipping

2011-12-15T15:07:00.004-06:00

841 is owned and operated by Zig Short, as most of you know. They got another wheel out, and it looks pretty sick. You can read all the details below.

"Scooter legend Zig Short started his wheel company 841 Wheels with the goal to make wheels that will stand jumps off buses or 2 story buildings. After extensive testing of countless urethanes, hubs and bearings he found the perfect compound, cores and durometer. The result are scooter wheels that offer the ultimate combination of durability, fast speed and solid grip. The 841 Tribal wheel is it latest design and is made of high rebound urethane with a durometer of 88A and features a solid aluminum core, which is essential for serious pro riders. It comes in 110 mm and is equipped with high precision ABEC 7 TITEN bearings and spacers."

Specs:
Size: 110 mm
Urethane: high rebound
Durometer: 88A
Hub: solid, 6061 aluminum
Bearings: Titen ABEC 7

$34.95 per wheel

If you're going through wheels constantly, and can't seem to find the right wheel for you, give these a try. If you've already ridden 841 wheels before, leave a comment with your thoughts on them. Keep checking Inside-Scooters for all of your news regarding 841.

Wow, gotta give this guy major credit for what he's done. Its so hard recognizing you have a problem and going ahead to change it for yourself. I'm happy for him, and hope he only continues this healthy lifestyle.

Nick Donatelli Introduces, theEMP

2011-12-14T11:53:00.005-06:00

What are we lacking in the sport, that other sports got more than enough of? Clothing and Apparel companies. I am a firm believer that if you are gonna make a company like this, it helps a lot to actually be a rider. That is one thing you won't have to worry about with theEMP. Check out the video below to get all the details on theEMP from Nick himself.

Also be sure to check Inside-Scooters for all your news, updates, and information on theEMP, cause we will be posting it all here first.

Scooter Zone's Matt Somers How To: Frontside Overcrook

2011-12-14T11:45:00.002-06:00

Matt Somers got his first taste of doing "How To's" when he took a trip down to California. Returning back home didn't stop Matt from continuing to make How To videos for other riders. He has been knocking a lot of them out lately. Below is his latest one, on how to do one of the least done grinds in the sport, the Frontside Overcrook. Check it out below.

Bjorn Lillegraven Venture Promo

2011-12-14T11:28:00.002-06:00

We don't have many riders on ISB from Norway, but now we at least got one. Bjorn recently made this video for the Venture Scooter Crew out in Norway. He definitely has some skills, but he can still improve on a lot of stuff. Good to see some videos from riders from countries like Norway that we don't see much from. Check it out.

Trevor Fitzpatrick- Life Goes On

2011-12-13T17:11:00.000-06:00

This kid definitely has got the skills. But do they pay the bills? I think if he gets out to ride a bigger variety of places, and cleans it up a little bit, they will. I also kept thinking Stefan Hefner was in the video cause of the haircut haha.
