The Root Industries Type R GT Pro Scooter is engineered for riders who want top-tier performance in the park. Weighing just 3.1kg (6.8 lbs), this ultra-light scooter is easy to maneuver, making it perfect for learning new tricks or pushing advanced skills. Built with a 5-inch wide deck and 650mm (25.5”) high bars, the Type R GT offers the ideal balance of space, control, and stability. Its pro-level design features premium components such as HMA aluminum bars, Lotus wheels, GT clamp, Fractal grips, Air headset, and cold-forged one-piece forks—all crafted for strength and smooth performance. The deck is forged from Magnesium-enriched 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum, offering a lightweight yet highly durable construction with a triple-channel cavity design. This ensures extra resilience while keeping the scooter responsive. The HMA bars (Hi-Modulus Alloy) are 25% stronger than standard aluminum while maintaining a featherlight feel. The Lotus wheels—an evolution of Root’s popular Honeycore wheels—use a softer 88A PU compound for superior grip and speed on smooth skatepark surfaces. Combined with ABEC-11 bearings and Ultra High Rebound Grip PU, the Type R GT delivers unmatched flow and control. To enhance rider comfort, the scooter comes with AI-designed Fractal grips that wick away sweat quickly, keeping hands dry and secure during long sessions. The GT clamp adds strong clamping power with dual 6mm bolts while reducing overall weight. Arriving partly assembled, setup is quick and hassle-free. With its pro-grade specs, the Root Industries Type R GT Pro Scooter is the ultimate choice for intermediate and advanced riders who want the perfect mix of lightness, durability, and innovation.
