Our First Stunt Scooter

The children have all been scooting around since their second birthdays, but have recently discovered the joys of skate parks, being able to go a bit faster and try something new, so when Micro Scooter sent us their 'Ramp' stunt scooter, designed for children aged 5-12, they were all excited to test it out.

We made a day out of testing it, scooting down into town to jump on the open top bus which travels along the coast to a neighbouring town.  There is an outdoor skate park next to one of the playgrounds that we love and all four children had a scooter with them.  They were so excited to try it out on the ramps and immediately noticed that it was better designed for them than their current scooters.  The ramp scooter is non adjustable in order to maintain integrity on stunts and you can see in the pictures how it works for different ages and heights (Finn is 6 and 123cm, Archie is 8 and 135cm, Dylan is 9 and 152cm tall). You can spot Cora in the background whizzing around on her Mini-Micro scooter too.

They haven't mastered many tricks yet but are all keen to get lessons at the local indoor skate park and master the jumps and stunts that they have seen others doing, which might require me getting another two stunt scooters! Cora is nearly 5 but still quite petite for her age so I think it might be a bit tall for her at the moment (at around 102cm she is a little below the height of an average 5 year old).  They have been trying to jump on their current scooters but all agreed it felt easier on the stunt scooter.

The Ramp scooter can be used as a starter scooter for stunts but is also great for getting from A to B and can be used as an everyday scooter too.  There is a 28 day no quibble return policy and replaceable parts so this is a great scooter for active children.  We have been using Micro scooters for years and have always been so impressed that they are the only brand we look at now!

You can find all of the Micro Scooter range on their website including the Ramp Stunt Scooter which retails for £99.99 and comes in three different colours.  There are a variety of stunt scooters depending on ability and use and another range for older children.
