Those times when mainly well-attired business men used scooters to cross train station terminals are definitely over. Ten years after the boom, the youth scene has discovered the scooter and turned it into a hot new trend sport. Out of a small underground group, a worldwide community movement has evolved showing top-notch performances in the half-pipe with the micro® scooter. After the showcase at the Barcelona X Games, the micro Xtreme riders made their debut at Europe’s biggest freestyle sports festival, the freestyle.ch on the 25th and 26th of September 2010 in Zurich.Originally, the micro® scooter had been invented to cover short distances as fast and easy as possible. But some creative kids from Montreux, Switzerland, discovered more in it than only a tool to get from A to B. They've been conquering half-pipes and fun parks and have turned microscooting into an extreme sport. From the superman deck grab to the double back flip — the micro Xtreme rider are in no way inferior to the skateboarders! 2010, barcelona x games, extreme, freestyle.ch, goran karacic, half pipe, hot, jerry walther, jojo cajas, landiwiese, lausanne, michael cajas, micro xtreme, montreux, new, riders, scooter, switzerland, thomas gillam, trend sport, trottinett, underground, winterthur, zurich, Other
