For a child aged 2-5 that wants to be rolling like the big kids this is a perfect first scooter. Despite the fact that it sports three wheels it does just about everything its two-wheeled counterparts can do. The Y Glider is lightweight and sturdy. The larger wheels roll well over small encumbrances like cracks in the sidewalk or little rocks. It also turns very smoothly. In the eyes of our testers the genius of this scooter is the front axle. Both wheels lean with the rider keeping all wheels on the ground making the turning experience much more stable. Yvolution calls this the “lean to steer” method and it really connected with kids who were riding within minutes. The one thing parents wished this scooter had was an adjustable handle bar, many expressed surprise that it wasn’t part of the design.
