how does it handle for going of curbs or doing tricks: On the razor pro, is it light enough to jump the same height as a regular razor scooter?

From what I can tell. I am 6 feet 217 pounds and ride this thing very well. My kids have A2's and the difference is big. The pro is made stronger and has a thicker tube clamp for tricks. The weight is about the same. Amazon does have the best price on the net for the Pro. Get it you won't be disappointed.

I have found it does well in tight places.It is so light you can pick it up and put it where you want IF need be. Shave had mine for a year and have no complaints.

I think so. The reason it's a "pro" is that it's a more solidly made scooter, more capable of taking the punishment of tricks, etc. The handle bars do not fold down, so you lose that ease of throwing it in the back of your car, etc. Otherwise it would be great, just maybe a little too much scooter for their age?

Best scooter for kids struggling with balance. It's extremely stable and turns easily by leaning to one side or another. Stands on its own as opposed to the razor or other 2 wheelers.

Its fairly portable. The steering column or post breaks down easy and has a unlockable latch to connect to rear fender to use as a large handle. Its not a small scooter like the Razor or Grow Ped.

I took this unit to Scarborough Renaissance Festival in Waxahachie, TX, which is outside and has grass, gravel and dirt inclines. It performed with little problem except on the longer, steeper hills where I needed a little push. Of course it goes really SLOW up hill, it is not a huge powerful scooter. I bought it mostly because it was light weight and easy to load into the trunk of the car, but it never disappointed me.

I think this is the perfect scooter for a 4 year old (my kids are 6 & 8 and still ride them). I also am not a fan of the razor, they are metal and narrow. We have both and this is a superior scooter for balance and material. Goes just as fast, handles WAY better. Hope that helps.

It is smaller and the handle is shorter compared to a regular Razor scooter. I'd say the kid should be no more than 5ft tall.... I only bought it bec of the color. But yeah, my kid knew this is aSmaller scooter.

IDK if it would be good for doing tricks at an SP. it is heavier than the cheaper aluminum models because it is a steel frame it is also bigger and sturdier. it is a good scooter for areas where it isnt smooth like a dirt road or unpaved bike path or your yard. its alos very nice on paved or smooth areas as well. I bought it because the folding aluminums were no good on anything but smooth areas

We are happy with this scooter, it is light weight, holds up well and works great at the skate park. My scooter is the fav at the skate park

I have never used a four wheel scooter but am very happy with my three wheel scooter. I find it to be very stable and comfortable to use. The only drawback is the clearance when you go over a curb or even some doorway entries. It sits pretty low to the ground. My weight is approximately 135 and I am about 5'5" tall.

He would probably do fine with the pro. Whatever scooter you buy, make sure the 2 wheels are on the front, not the back. I believe the handle is adjustable on the pro,which means it can grow with him. It glides well and is very sturdy. It is a good choice.

It is great on legs. It is rather awkward for other areas as the razor head is rectangular. The only other "con" is that the battery does not seem to stay charged for more than 2-3 days. The razor runs, but the motor sounds slower on day three that it did right after being charged all night. (the directions say it should have a 20 minute running time, but I don't know about that) I hope this is helpful.

Excellent. I could turn in a single motion on a bus to slide into the wheelchair space. (I'm now the not-so-proud owner of a Gline Spitfire, which compared to the Scootie is a piece of crap.) :-(

Not with out changing the wheels. I would not buy this scooter again. Go with a Razor Pro.

i would think it all depends on how fast a razor electric scooter can go. i use my ramps for rc truck racing, but my vehicles go up to 50 mph. if the scooter would make it over the ramp, it would be a hard landing, because i think scooters have solid rubber or plastic wheels.

Not really. Without the motor on, it doesn't really glide like a regular scooter. My kids got the hang of it very quickly. I bought it for my 9 year old boy, but my 7 year old girl rides it with no problem too. It's too big for my younger one...mostly because the handle bars are pretty high, but not because he has trouble balancing it.
