Madd Gear MG5 Axion is a stunt scooter for riders who feel like their basic setup is starting to hold them back and want something more stable, more responsive and ready for bigger progression at the skatepark.

Madd Gear MG5 Axion, key features

• Total height: 83.5 cm
• Weight: 3.9 kg
• Deck: 6061-T6 aluminium / 508 x 127 mm
• Bar: 4130 Cr-Mo / 609 x 558 mm
• Wheels: 110 mm / ABEC-11
• Compression: IHC
• Level: intermediate

Right from the first jump, you can feel that the MG5 Axion is more stable and more confident than entry-level scooters. The wider deck gives you more room for your feet, so controlling the scooter during landings, whips and faster combinations feels much easier.

This is the point where you start noticing the difference between a beginner scooter and a setup that actually helps your progression. The scooter feels calmer at higher speed and holds its line better during park runs.

The MGP Ultra-Light Flute-Tech Pro deck combines low weight with a solid feel under your feet. During bunny hops or barspins the scooter still feels light and easy to throw around, but at the same time more stable during bigger landings.

The Cr-Mo bar gives a more solid feeling during harder impacts and bigger tricks. You do not get that flexy feeling that cheaper beginner setups often have after some heavier riding.

After just a few pushes you can feel how smoothly the 110 mm wheels pick up speed. The scooter carries momentum well and keeps rolling fast through the skatepark without feeling sluggish.

The 5" wide deck also gives the scooter a more modern feel compared to older narrow setups. It is easier to place your feet comfortably and feel more locked in during technical tricks.

If you are starting to hit boxes, learn more technical tricks or simply want a scooter that will not feel outdated after a few months of progression, the MG5 Axion fits that role really well.

How to choose the right stunt scooter size?

The easiest way is to measure from the ground up to around your hip area. That is roughly where the bar height should sit.

A scooter that is too tall makes tricks and quick movements harder to control. A setup that is too low becomes uncomfortable faster and limits movement during riding.

The MG5 Axion works especially well for riders looking for a more stable and modern skatepark setup.

Do not forget protection and regular maintenance

A stunt scooter takes a lot of impact during regular riding, so it is important to check bolts, compression and wheel condition regularly. A properly maintained setup feels smoother, quieter and more reliable during tricks.

When learning new tricks, it is also worth using protective gear and a good helmet. Sometimes one missed landing is enough to realise that was a smart decision.
