The Razor kick scooter is the present-day equivalent of the type of scooter that has been about for 50 years or more. In actuality, children have almost definitely been attaching boards to wheels ever since scrap wheels became available. As with those classic scooters, the Razor kick scooter is propelled forward by foot power. That is, you put one foot on the board and push forward, or in other words kick back on the ground with the other.
