"Hi, my name is Elliot Kwong. I'm here on behalf of Expert Village and today I'm going to teach you the basics of razor scootering. There is some equipment that you should use before you start scootering. There are things such as elbow pads and knee pads and those are things that are important but if you want to go to to the bare minimum, well this is what you need to have. You need to have a helmet. Make sure that the helmet is the same size that fits your head and always make sure that you buckle up and when you buckle up, it's not loose and swinging around. So that's pretty important. Another thing that you should have is a good pair of shoes. You don't want flip flops or you don't want something like sandals when you're scootering. You want a good pair of shoes that have laces on them. This is could be tennis shoes, basketball shoes, anything that will give your feet some protection when you're kicking against the ground and to keep your feet from shaking around and flying off your foot. So that's two things that you should have: a helmet and a good pair of shoes."
