Are these things everywhere??? At the Pomona Swap Meet this weekend, I saw at least 3-4 brands...pretty much the same. Now I find 'em in my store! And we sell appliances! WTF? You still have to push. I just don't get it...

I cant wait to see Tony Hawk on one of these on ESPN X games. Can you see somebody taking one of these on the vert ramp. :) Maybe someone will get hurt on one of these and they'll go the way of yard darts!!!

yard darts! LOL

to think that the skate board of the 80's originated from this scooter back in hte 50's!

and to think we are advancing technology!!

Who'd think that the fastest selling toy for 2000 was a standard metal SCOOTER, thats right no rockets on the back, no anti gravitational field just a plane metal frame with a stick handle and 2 wheels, just like in the old days.

So when does the Yo-Yo and the Hulla Hoop make their comeback?

hey, they had an electric one at sam's club for $400... that would be nice for me (on campus).. as it could fit in my closet, and get me to my 8am that's a 20 min walk in probably 7 minutes :) but then i have to haul it into class.....

No they are not spreading faster than the email viruses, because if they were I would've been sent 18 of them for free

Whenever marketers decide they want to shove it down kids throats so they think they must have them.

They are a blast - but watch out for the government to step in. They are now legislating helmets and proper eye wear.

I bought one while I was in Cali for my fiance's son. He loves it.

I was at the mall the other day, and I saw two kids ride the scooter through Belk. I thought I would die laughing when I saw the people jumping out of the way, and then two little kids ride through the crowd. LMAO!!! :D
