Thanks Scoot Parents!

Thank you, Scoot parents!
Thanks for taking your kid to the park over and over…
Thanks for enduring the smelly shoes and the sweaty pads,
For waiting in the cold until ALL the results are announced.
Thanks for listening through the long conversation about the benefits of HIC vs SCS
and the messy kitchen left by “the gang”.

Thanks for supporting your offspring passion, his/her desire to flip, whip, 360 and more.
Thanks for overcoming the fear of impending injuries,
Nursing bruises and egos!

It is a Family affair - Christmas at the McClean!

How many times did you have to drive back home because of a forgotten a helmet or some other necessities?
How many times did you wish it would suddenly rain to end the session?
How many times you thought about opening a wine bar, right here by the skatepark?? ;)
How often did you give the  whole crew a ride? home… each one!
How often did you pay for the ice-cream?

How many scoot parents started a brand in the industry?
How many parents opened up a shop or a park?
Spending endless hours building the foundation for the scene to grow!

Thanks you for being involved.
Thanks you for your patience and perseverance!
Without this parental support scootering wouldn’t be half where it is today.


The young generation might be doing all the riding but it’s literally thanks to your driving they got there! ;)

So, it’s perhaps time we tell you!
All helmets are not the same!

Of course, more and more of you know now the difference in between the classic skate helmet (soft shell) and a certified helmet - Up to 5 times more protection!

Unfortunately, many scoot parents haven’t been clearly informed… There are big difference in between soft shell helmets and certified ones!

Certified helmets like the S1 provide up to 5 times more protection than soft shell - as tested in lab: https://youtu.be/EWMC4jtBCVM
The soft shell helmet, the one you have likely found exclusively at most scoot retailers until recently, are actually illegal for riders under 18 in California!
Most of Europe and Australia have stricter laws about helmets certification, but the video above should be enough to convince any parents of the need to wear to safer helmet!

S1 Helmets set out to build a better helmets for all actions sports, a certified helmets that looks good!

So, please, scoot parents, make sure your kids and his/her friends wear a certified helmet!

And again… thanks for all!
