Is it childish to be using a Razor scooter as a mode of transportation?

Question

Me and my friend both have razors, and we have been scootering around for about 4 years. Im 17, but now I'm starting to wonder if it's considered childish. We don't do any tricks, we just use them to get to places, FAST. Something that would take 45 minutes walking to get to only takes us 15 minutes on our scooters. Is it still okay to use these things? We don't trip like the little amateurs on rocks, we havent fallen off in a long time (it's embarassing to fall off)

Answer 1

You should use a helmet. Why not use your scooters you can always use roller blades or even a bike. Long as you are happy doing it, and it saving you a lot of money. I think you are starting to  think what people think, they are probably thinking they wish they had the guts to do what you are doing.

Answer 2

Nothing wrong, it's fine.

What WOULD be childish is going to school riding a bicycle... with training wheels. ^_^

Wear a helmet, stay safe and make sure never get into an accident. ^_^

Answer 3

i don't see a problem with it ,you got transport n if it works hey

Answer 4

No it's not childish. It's more enviromentaly friendly than a car and they look cool. You should wear a helmet though because you only get one noggin'.Who cares if some ****** says something about it.

Answer 5

NOOO!! any age can use them! it's a mode of transportation.

Answer 6

Hahaha, no it isn't. Did you know that at all Google offices they use red razor scooters to travel through the office?

Answer 7

of course not, scooters rule!

Answer 8

No, throw them out so you can be cool and take forever to get places. Just kidding, of course it's ok.

Answer 11

I don't think so... I would still use mine, except for the fact that i'm 4x faster on my bicycle

Answer 12

first it is mature to wear safety gear....second it is mature to be efficient in our travel modes....so no it is not childish

Answer 13

Haha ! :)

Don't worry what other people think. If it gets the job done and you enjoy it then it's all kool .

Answer 14

Keep on using your scooter. I'm 43 and I use my Rollerblades to go almost everywhere. People don't look at me and say what's up with that guy. They ask me if it was hard to learn, if the blades were expensive, what kind to get. Those kind of questions. I'm glad you still use your scooter. Save the environment and get a workout all at once. Have fun.
