Freestyle Now is getting support from Sacrifice scooters and their products will now be given as prizes for the skatepark competitions that Freestyle Now will host.
The scooter phenomenon is without question far exceeding any expatiations many people had. Over the past 6 years it has gone from a small following with simple foldable, flimsy, easy to break scooters to a whole new level. With major advancements in the design, technology and construction as well as the onset of large scooter companies willing to promote pro riders. The progression of rider’s abilities has been spurred on with these changes. Riders are going bigger, faster and getting more technical. It is without a doubt moving swiftly.
It is no lie to some that scooters have not been all that welcomed within the skateboard and bmx communities in the past. This could be partly put down to the fact that many scooter riders in the past were very young and naive and did not understand the nature of skatepark etiquette. This created many problems with young kids getting in the way, dropping in without looking or simply not taking care when out on the skatepark. Skateboarders and bmxers started to feel an underlying resentment towards this new movement. What they failed to understand was, this was the same resentment that was given and shown to skateboarders and bmxers when these subcultures started to emerge. Freestyle Now thinks that showing another subculture this kind of resentment is wrong. We believe that respect should be given to all no matter what your activity is. If you want to fly paper airplanes and it makes you happy and that’s your thing then do it, that’s cool with us. We bmx, we skate, we scoot, we all get rad and ride the same things.
Freestyle Now would like to thank our new supporter Sacrifice scooters for their support with our competition prizes. Coming out of Melbourne, Victoria Sacrifice has been in production since 2011. Sacrifice is the product of the minds of Daniel Mills and Pos Siebel. Daniel hails from a bmx background, and with that passion it lead him into owning three successful bike shops. Pos is an industrial designer who has had over a decade in product development and technical design in industries like skateboarding, mountain biking, bmx and snowboarding. The combined minds of these two guys, is what drives Sacrifice scooters along with feedback from the scooter riders. Sacrifice tends to look outside of the box when it comes to products and this is what makes it appealing and stands out from the other companies that are out there.
Freestyle Now is stoked to have Sacrifice as our supporter. Sacrifice products will now be giving as prizes to the scooter divisions at the skatepark competitions that Freestyle Now hosts.
