Product Review Mashed UP Stunt Scooters


Stunt scooters are extreme scooters that are designed to provide good resistance when they are used for jumps, tricks or stunts. They can be purchased for a variety of prices and are generally more expensive than regular scooters. From more recreational to pro stunt scooters, the high quality strength of these scooters makes them suitable for people of all abilities.

An example of a lower end stunt scooter would be the Mashed UP Street Stunt Scooter Pink, selling now for £60, which is perfect for entry level. The scooter has a load rating of 120kg with a super strong alloy head set making it suitable for people of all ages. This combined with T-Style alloy handlebar with 360 degrees rotation makes the scooter an exciting option for beginner wanting to buy your first stunt scooter.

Higher end models tend to be much stronger and more durable making them a better option for if you want to use the scooter at a skate park or for tricks. A higher end scooter such as Mashed UP Elite Stunt Scooter Red, being sold for £290, provides you with a light yet strong scooter with ABEC bearings and a compression system ensuring you have a smooth ride on the pro stunt scooter. This elite scooter is at the forefront of scooters produced to date, giving easy manoeuvrability making it ideal for people more experienced in extreme sports or park riding.

Stunt Scooters



Stunt scooters differ from regular scooters as there is a greater emphasis on the weight and strength of the bars and deck, as well as the quality of the wheels and bearings. The reasoning for this is because if you are performing stunts and tricks you want to be confident that your scooter is not going to let you down and break or collapse underneath you. For this reason you will also find that they often do not have the foldable bars that you see on standard or younger children's scooters.

Stunt scooters will often have better quality grips both on the deck and handle bars providing you with more comfort when performing tricks. Some riders prefer to customise their scooter both to improve its appearance and also to help toughen it up. There are a wide range of accessories available on the market to help you do this giving you a unique appearance and style.

Whether you are looking for stunt scooters for kids or quality pro stunt scooters from the biggest brands; we offer an extensive selection of stunt scooters to suit your needs.
