Riding Down Hills on a Razor Scooter

Video Transcript

"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. Riding your razor scooter down a hill could be potentially dangerous and here's why: if you had a hill like this and you were just to ride completely straight down - here's our guy and he wants to ride completely straight down - well he's going to pick up speed pretty fast and if he cannot brake, then he's in potential danger. And knowing that the razor scooter's brakes are not the best when you're trying to stop going down a hill, there's a better way to do this. Let's say we have a hill right here, instead of going straight down, what you want to do is weave from the left to the right. So you start at the top, you weave left and then you weave right, weave left and you weave right, slowly making your way down the hill. Using this method you don't pick up speed as fast and it's a lot safer. It's kind of like snowboarding."
