Product Description
Slider The Unscooter is the Best Action & Fitness Product of 2007. A Three-wheel action scooter with removable handle pole and handle bars, and the only one of it's kind with single handbrake, three-wheel steering and 'Action Decks' TM technology designed to propel you without your feet touching the ground -- Scissor Action: Pivot both feet all the way out then all the way back in -- Roller Blading Action: Steer and pivot to the left as you shift your weight to your right leg and push out to the right, then steer and pivot to the right while shifting your weight to your left leg and pushing out to the left -- Slalom Action: Same as Roller Blading Action except you shift your weight and both feet to one side then the other - like skiing. Turning: Slow turns are accomplished normally by turning the handlebars in the direction you wish to turn while keeping your feet shoulder width apart. Faster turns will require some practice since the rear wheels will also begin to steer in an arc around the front wheel; use the brake to slow and begin by turning in the opposite direction (countersteer) to slow the rate at which the back pivots around. Always lean forward and into the direction you wish to go while pushing out with the outside foot.

This review is from: Slider The Unscooter - U8 - Three Wheel Action Scooter - Blue (Sports)
Slider the Unscooter is fun as well as great exercise. It's scarry at first because you feel awkward and tipsy but once you get a handle on it, you can have fun. We're in our sixties, and this is a great motivation tool to keep our girlish figures ! !

Love this scooter!,
By Mom of 4 boys (AK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Slider The Unscooter - U8 - Three Wheel Action Scooter - Blue (Sports)
I have been riding the U6 for several months now and have really enjoyed it. I like it so much (and so do my sons) I had to buy the U8 so they would leave my PINK U6 alone!! We live in Florida and have no hills, so I can ride this anywhere. This is the only exercise routine I have been able to stick with and many want to know where I got my funky scooter. I have toned up and lost a couple pants sizes with my increased activity riding this scooter. Now with a 2nd one, I can drag my girlfriends out with me for some daily exercise. For those who hate to exercise, I highly recommend this scooter! The U8 is a little harder to manuver than the U6, but I love them both.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Slider The Unscooter - U8 - Three Wheel Action Scooter - Blue (Sports)
Purchased the slider about a month ago. Am really having fun (63 yrs old!!!) scooting around the nearby neighborhood park on it. It is another form of exercise that gets you moving. I like to do a variety of active things and this was one I could enjoy with my 7 yr old granddaughter. I bought her the U6 and she LOVES it! I will say noone who has tried it has been able to do the parallel movement very well. But I love the skating movement as well as the legs in and out movement. It doesn't go very fast on rough asphalt - it is definitely best on smooth sidewalk or the outdoor basketball court our park has. You can't buy in any store and Amazon had the best price when I was looking for it. Since it's not cheap and you can't try it out, you might be hesitant, but if you are an active teenager or adult, I say go for it.
