Why is a wide deck important on a kick scooter?

A wide deck allows you to ride with both legs comfortably. It makes it easier for beginners to switch legs while riding, reducing fatigue over longer distances. With parallel feet on a wider deck, there’s less strain on the waist, offering a much more comfortable ride compared to narrow scooters. Boardy’s deck is designed to be double wide (170mm / 6.7″), providing ample space for even two size US12 shoes side by side.
