The Fuzion Pro X3 is an entry-level pro scooter developed by Nextsport. Usually they make high end pro scooters. Can they now develop a stunt scooter that is versatile enough to hit the park and the streets at a lower price point? While keeping the sweetness of the ride?
Brand
Nextsport is a California based company that designs, develops and manufactures the Fuzion series stunt scooter. The Fuzion Scooter doesn’t only cater to skilled riders and the pros. They are also geared towards beginners and youngsters who want to get their first taste of the skate parks.
Design
Immediately we feel that despite the lower price this stunt scooter is a pro when it comes to withstanding the daily abuse of wear and tear in the skate park. It is like Nextsport developed this stunt scooter especially for people on a low budget but who want to do mad stunts and expose it to some heavy use.
Nextsport spent some precious time on the development of the handlebars and headset. The Fuzion X3 brings us solid steel batwing shaped handlebars equipped with some very good grips. The size of the handlebar makes the scooter comfortable for young and old. A smooth spin is provided thanks to the threaded and solid headset. Grip is provided through the triple clamp and a welded headtube.
To compensate for all that weight, the Fuzion carries a hollowed-out aluminum deck. A very unique and nifty design feature. Combine this with a smooth deck bottom and all your grinding needs are fulfilled. We hopped and flipped this scooter many times in the skate park and still it gives us a smooth and sturdy feeling. It is truly all about the ride and its experience.
There was just one little thing that really bugged us during our testing period. Although the Fuzion mounts a very good looking brake. The fact that it isn’t adjustable on the side makes it necessary to take out the wheel. This can be a lot of hassle and work especially for kids.
It is remarkable that at such a low price Nextsport are able to develop such a strong and high quality stunt scooter. Of course this version doesn’t stand a chance against the other higher priced Fuzions but all in all it is still an amazing machine. We especially recommend this masterpiece to parents with young children. The Fuzion Pro X3 is totally geared towards beginners and youngsters who want to get their first taste of skate parks.
