Stunting has always been associated with young people mostly from well off background and most of stunters are boys/men as compared to girls/women. Stunting gained popularity among the youth around the world even in Botswana most of stunters are relatively young male people. Enterprenuers have also ventured into business of selling BMX stunt bikes. There is also Molapo crosing ramps that was developed by our own local people. The ramps were formed for young skaters and stunters.
Bmx stunt bicycles offers young people with the chance of expressing their individuality since they are always made in a funky way to suit different characters. Young stunters meet everyday to have fun together and Saturday is deemed stunting day since that is when a lot of numbers come around Main mall area to have fun and take on each other, testing their skills. Female stunters are still a silent, invisible minority and stunting in the wider public consciousness remains a guy's sport'.
Women are afraid of stunting and trying out new tricks. They are afraid of falling because most of most women are fragile.
