Pan Scooting is a leisurely sport, consisting of 'the two honoured houses' which comprise the house of crush and the house of crunch. 'Crush' is the term given to the professional, organised quadrant, while 'Crunch' is given to the street pan scooter, many of which identify themselves as Rad-Skeeters, Cho-Panners or Scoot-Wheeler X's.
Pan Scooting first emerged during the late 1860s at Dish Pan Gully at Chewton near Castlemaine, when an old chinaman scuttled a pan, scooting it down the gully. Henceforth, to skeet a pan was the sport of legend.
