This scooter features a side-to-side riding stance for carving and drifting action and provides a completely different riding experience than traditional kick scooters. It also features industrial-designed casters for self-propelling fun, a built-in, quick-response hand brake for control and safety and a reinforced, lightweight steel frame that is easy for kids to handle and sturdy enough to last for years. The YFlicker's easy Twist & Stow folding system is great for the family on the go.

Yvolution presents a new family of revolutionary three-wheeled scooters that will get kids up and active. There’s no more kicking the pavement like simple two wheel scooters. Riders simply move their hips from side to side to get going and keep moving using their own body power for self-propelling fun. The Y Fliker’s patented technology, light-weight and sleek design, combined with performance rated wheels, allows this free-style scooter to perform smooth carving and drifting actions.  The quick response hand brake offers kids increased control and ensures a safe, fun ride. Y Fliker also sports anti-vibration hand grips for extra comfort and can be stored away easily thanks to its twist and stow folding system.

No batteries, gears, or pedals - just a fun, encouraging and progressive start to bicycle riding. PlasmaBike’s unique design encourages balance, coordination and motor skill development while offering a fun ride. Children as young as 18 months can enjoy the freedom or riding without the added complication of training wheels or anxiety of having to hold their balance too long, too early. Wide wheels ensure that PlasmaBike doesn't tip over in a stopped or stationary position, giving children added confidence and promoting self-esteem. The wide wheels and limited steering range enhance balancing capabilities and provide a smoother transition to a conventional 2 wheel ride.
