We often see small children riding their scooters in the park or around their neighbourhood. They enjoy their riding time which is a great physical activity and a fun time. But these scooters aren't just for kids. There are adult versions that encourage grownups to take a ride. This is an exciting activity that's very beneficial for both physical and mental health. You have so many options on the market, but there are several top leading scooter brands that you can never go wrong with.
Envy
This is a brand that started its work in 2009 in Melbourne, Australia. During this time, there weren’t many scooter brands and there was a big rise in their popularity. They started by making aftermarket parts for already existing products. The original creating team: Max Peters, Mitch Baldry, Adam Rouse, Brendon Smith and Warick Beynon, worked hard and started growing in the USA and Europe.
In Europe and the UK regions, you can find this brand under the name Blunt Scooters, and under the name ENVY in Canada, South America, the USA, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. From their new and improved, high-quality Envy COLT scooters to their Envy KOS series, this company always finds an innovative way to make their products.
They also come at an affordable price and are budget-friendly. Envy invests a lot of time, effort and resources into creating the best possible scooters they can. Their innovative design is always pushing them forward and places them at the top of this industry. Their Prodigy series was released in 2022 and became a real hit.
They have 120mm wide wheels that can develop a lot of speed. The forks and deck are made of aluminium, which makes them very durable and strong. The deck is 50cm long and 12cm wide, and it doesn’t weigh a lot, somewhere around 3.5kg. When it comes to colour, this series is very versatile. They have white, black, oil-slick, galaxy-themed scooters, or shades of pink or golden tones.
When the Envy Colt series dropped, people were very excited. This was a series that lasted for 6 years and manufacturers make it better each year. The way these scooters are accepted by this community, makes them work even harder and improve even more. This is a scooter that’s perfect for beginners and intermediate riders that are ready to upgrade their skills.
The Envy One scooter series is expertly crafted for the aspiring young beginner scooter rider using high-quality, long-lasting pro scooter parts. This is the perfect scooter to introduce to the kids and get them started. Young riders aged 4-9 years old, can benefit a lot from riding these scooters. They're great for the skatepark and for strolling down the footpath.

Flavour has been active in the local Australian scooter scene since 2007. Their goal is to create scooters that riders can count on and use to advance their love of riding. As the market expanded, Flavour followed behind by incorporating cutting-edge technology into its wheels, bearings, 7 Series decks, grips, Cromoly bars, compression, and apparel as well as CNC forks and bearings from reputable skate makers.
