The ocean wind tugs at your jacket as you push off the curb and the boardwalk unfurls ahead—broad, sun-bleached, and punctuated by gull calls. On a U2 Pro scooter the city opens differently: the seawall becomes a ribbon to follow, hidden alleys and turn-of-the-century homes peek behind live oaks, and the Pleasure Pier’s silhouette keeps pace on the horizon.
