OMG!! I purchased this item for my 7 year old son and what a find. This item is quite the scooter. This may be mistaken as a regular scooter with four wheels and a safe item for beginners...NO WAY...I may take this from my son..lol..what a fun durable thrashing item..This item turns, carves and is capable of many tricks. This item can also be used in a half-pipe.
It will take a least a few tries to get the hang of the balance and movement.The board is about the size as a regular skateboard.I put this item together to make sure it was all it said it was..checking before Christmas..I rode it all over to make sure it was appropriate for his age...lol I rode it so much and had tons of fun, as a 35 yr old mom I probably looked just silly...but now I have to clean the wheels off before Christmas and act like nothing happened :)
Parents, this is a great price and is a over the top entertaining item. For children that are beginners to scooters I may shy away from this item until they have established good balance and practice good safety techniques such as wearing helmets.
It's so much fun! December 2, 2008

OMG! This thing is so much fun! I'm (censored) years old and I was looking for something more substantial than my kids' old Razor that I'd been using. I found this and I thought I'd give it a try. My other choice was a xootr but that thing is over $200 and looks like it's more of a fast commuter scooter.
The biggest difference between the Fuzion and a regular scooter is the ability of the Fuzion to carve. The footplate tilts and the rear wheels turn at the same time effectively giving you 4 wheel steering and the ability to bank your body. In practical terms it means you can steer by throwing your body around by moving your center of gravity just like on a skateboard or skiing. It is this which makes the Fuzion much more fun than a regular scooter. Depending on your ability it'll just take you just a few sessions to master this and it's so much fun you'll get addicted to it.
After about 20 minutes on it I was twisting, turning, carving like a kid, and me with degenerative arthritis in my joints, a disc herniation in my back and runner's knees. This thing was so much fun that I tired my kids out before they tired me out.
It's really easy to put together, just a few minutes and they even include a couple of cheap wrenches in the box.
I highly recommend this to anyone over about 100lbs. Any kid lighter than that I recommend the Electron since I think they wouldn't be able to throw their body about enough to make the twists and turns that I could, since this scooter is kind of heavy and you need a bit of heft to do it. But if you're an adult you'll be able to take the handling to the limit. And I think I will get those longboard 70mm wheels that others here have recommended.
I haven't had this much fun for ages, it's even better than you know what. Two thumbs (with arthritis) up!
