Why buy MGP Origin Stunt Scooters?

Q

What’s new about the Origin series?

A

Origin scooters use redesigned decks with internal fluting that increases strength while reducing weight. The bars are lighter with improved gusseting for durability. Wheels, clamps and forks have been upgraded to handle greater impacts and offer smoother rides.

Q

How do the Pro, Team and Extreme models differ?

A

The Pro model is entry-level, featuring a 4.5 inch wide deck and lower bar height for younger riders. The Team model upgrades to a 4.8 inch deck, larger wheels and stronger bars, making it suitable for intermediate riders. The Extreme model offers the widest deck, tallest bars and premium components like 120 mm wheels and SCS compression, catering to advanced riders.

Q

Are Origin scooters good for park riding?

A

Yes. The lighter deck and responsive geometry make them ideal for park tricks. Internal fluting and strong headtube welds provide support for airs, flips and grinds, while lightweight bars aid spins and whips.

Q

What compression system is used?

A

Most Origin scooters use IHC compression. Some higher-end models switch to HIC or SCS for added strength. Check the product specification; advanced riders often prefer SCS for maximum rigidity.

Q

Can I upgrade Origin scooters?

A

Absolutely. You can replace wheels with 110–120 mm sizes, upgrade to titanium or aluminium bars or change clamps. Ensure compatibility with the deck and fork; Origin models use industry-standard sizes.

Q

Are these scooters suitable for street riding?

A

The wider decks and bigger wheels on the Team and Extreme models handle light street riding, but dedicated street scooters may offer better grinding surfaces and durability. Still, the Origin series provides a good entry point for exploring street tricks.

Q

How much do they weigh?

A

Weights vary by model. The Pro weighs around 3.5 kg, the Team approximately 3.6 kg and the Extreme closer to 3.8 kg due to additional material and larger wheels. The weight helps manage stability without making them too heavy for tricks.

Q

Who should ride an Origin scooter?

A

Riders moving beyond beginner-level scooters. Younger riders benefit from the Pro model’s smaller dimensions, while intermediate and advanced riders get more deck space and robust components on Team and Extreme models.
