Radddd

Chilllens from stanio on Vimeo.



I'll never really care what sponsors these guys get because no matter what they'll always be the RAD crew to me. That being said, Tyler is now on MaddGear...every time he gets on his front wheel I get scared that hes going to do something I never thought possible haha.

Oh, and in case you had any doubts, Stan loves marijuana and beer. He clears that up at the end.

OTT Day Edit

Jake Hershey
Joe Armstrong

This kids kill...nose manuals from whoever were nuts.

Dissidence Street Jam

Ok..not much can be said about this video. Just watching it will leave all your jaws on the ground. I think we know where the street riding capital of the world is now. It's Paris, France. This video shows probably the most organized street jam you'll ever see. We can only hope that Addict and Dissidence do this again next year, or even sooner. Check it out guys and check that list of sponsors at the end..cause they all def. helped make this possible.

So basically, what you see right now...is not Final. Sometime tomorrow we will work everything out. Thanks.

Inward Scooter's Zig Short: Everywhere We Go (A Gift and a Curse)



Inward rider Zig Short's latest video. Zig had some trouble with his knee this spring, which may explain why this video was more tech than his other videos...although there are some huge tricks in here, especially the banger haha...that was nuts. Loved all the rail stuff, and the legsweep was awesome.

Mike Montgomery Lucky Scooters First Clover DVD Promo/ Throwaway



This features Mike, Jake O'Donnell, some fat kid, several girls, an Asian woman, and an old black man all promoting the Lucky Scooters DVD...at least I think thats what it was, they didn't really repeat it enough.

Ricky Cox



This is a reader submitted video I got from an email...I don't usually post these but wow, kid impressed me. Nice mix of street, park, big, and tech. Loving his peg stuff.

On another note I think we may start having a little "Reader Video of the Week". Stay tuned for more on that.

Technical Difficulties..

So as you can see the IS Layout is still a little...off.

This IS NOT Permanent. We should have a brand new layout, and new features in a couple of days. So keep checking IS until then guys.

Martin Nogol in the Sky with District

Martin Nogol, is one of the few riders that does more demos and contests both big or small more than almost any other rider in the sport. Here are some pictures that were taken of Eagle-Sport Team rider Martin Nogol, at a recent demo.




Seems like Martin is really doing his part for the sport as much as he can. For all news on Martin Nogol, and all breaking news and updates in the sport, Keep checking Inside-Scooters.

Joey Aria Promotional Video

Joey Aria...let's face it. You probably don't know who he is. But you should. Even Joey calls himself an Underground rider. But he is trying to change that. This is his first promotional video that he is including on his resume to get sponsored. Really cool to watch someone that can whip both ways easily. And some of those lip tricks......just flat out ridiculous. Check it out below...and keep checking IS for the latest videos by Joey Aria.

Stay calm people..

If you are coming on Inside-Scooters and noticing that it looks different...That's because......it does. Jordan, Myself, and Aaron are testing out different layouts...because we have some big plans for Inside-Scooters this summer. So please try and deal with it for now. Thanks guys.



-IS Staff

Hayden O'Connor and Taylor Smith Super 60.



We've had some ridiculous super 60's sent to us. But this one just about trumps them all.
At one stage, i thought there were limits on what could be done in an hour, this video pretty much disproves that, and the common misconceptions on Australian park riding.
If you're reading this Taylor, you're my favorite rider in Australia right now.

Both boys doing it for Moonwalk Scooters.

Travis House - It's nice to be back.



Maybe EVERY scooter rider should watch this, with an open mind, and adopt the principle of KISS (Keep it simple, stupid)
Travis' first day of riding in over 2 years, and he's still got it.
Everything clean and everything stylish.
Enjoy.

Tilt Chromos Pegs Review

First off, the pegs come with everything you see in the above picture, which is everything you need to install the pegs (besides tools).

Basic stats on these include:

-Heat Treated 4140 chromoly
-1” by 2” (or 25mm by 51mm)
-Black Oxide finish
-2.4 oz each
-Hardened axles
-Nylon locking nuts

Installing the pegs is pretty simple.  The package includes a bolt for the front and back, but you can put both pegs on either wheel.  However you may need to find a longer axle to make it work.  The hardware fits right inside the peg, giving it a really nice, clean look.  The tapered ends of the pegs mean they can fit forks like the Inward Hybrid, French ID, ScooterZone Scorcher, and more. 

So the tapered end means it can fit more forks/decks, while still retaining a one inch diameter, which is bigger than that of the Park Pegs.  It also means that the bottom of the peg and deck are flush, which gives you more control during grinds and stalls.

I definitely noticed the weight once I put the pegs on.  It was a little odd at first but I got used to it in a jiffy, wasn’t a problem at all.  Thats just the tradeoff you get with the most durable pegs on the market. 

Being made out of chromoly instead of aluminum, these pegs do slide rather slower than the Park pegs.  However, if whatever you’re grinding is waxed enough, it shouldn’t be a problem.  The big advantage to the Chromos over the Park pegs is the durability.  These things are heat treated, and come with heat treated axles, combine them together and you have the strongest peg setup you can get. 

With these pegs, you can run two on one wheel, or four all together, which definitely opens up a lot of options for tricks.  I decided to run two on the front, and left my Park peg in the back.  However, I’ve been running a prototype fork and used a stock back axle with it, and actually broke two axles in the span of two days with em.  Buttt that definitely wouldn’t have happened if I was using the axle Tilt provides.

These pegs are definitely a good buy if you want something longer lasting than alu pegs.  These are super strong, and will definitely last you a long time.  You can buy them on the Tilt website.

Adam Rouse - Blunt Scooters Edit.



If there's a name in Australian scooter right now that can ride everything on command, it's this man right here.
A perfect mix of street, park, big, tech and everything in between.

Watch for updates on the Blunt Scooters website in the next few days, as it's due to be up and running.

Cooper Klaar/Brandon Miller/Nate Rita Day Video



Beast Mode: [On]

Been awhile since I've seen an out front/day video like this. These guys kill the curbs. Really good riding from everyone, Cooper just rapes it though.

10 Year Old Lucas Hornik.



Wow. Not often is it that you see a kid this young, this good, also have great style. Love his bar to whips, and his briflips (back ones) actually look good too. Hes going to be insane in a couple years, wouldn't be surprised if he turned out like Tyler Bonner has.
