Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The new Ripstick combines all the fun and excitement of surfing and snowboarding and puts it on wheels. Inspired by the classic shape and design of a skateboard, the Ripstick looks like something out of the future. Instead of the traditional four-wheel skateboard, this amazing board can make smooth, quick 360-degree turns on just two wheels. Just stand on the sturdy traction plates and subtle movements propel the Ripstick even up a hill! The front and rear flexible panels are controlled by a spring-oriented bar located on the top of the wheels. The rugged polyurethane wheels are 77mm/85A with ABEC-5 bearings. Separating the two traction plates is a padded rubber carrying handle. Measures 33.5" long x 10" wide. Weighs 8 lbs. Wear helmet and pads for safety. 90-day warranty.

Amazon.com Product Description:
Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the Ripstik caster board is the perfect ride for kids looking for the next big thrill. The board is distinguished by its pivoting deck and 360-degree inclined caster trucks, which offer a snowboard-like carving ability. A simple weight transfer lets you turn or accelerate without pushing, just like when you're carving down the slopes.



The Ripstik's unique twisting motion moves you forward with out ever pushing off the ground.
The board offers such features as spiked traction pads, a kick tail and nose, and a concave deck design, which combine to improve your foot control--a must for tricks. And thanks to the 76mm polyurethane wheels and precision ABEC-5 bearing casters, skaters will enjoy a smooth ride on almost any type of pavement. Designed for children 8 years and up, the Ripstik's plastic end platforms and metal torsion beam support up to 220 pounds.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - SICK AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
these things are sick fun! i got one for xmas and the only thing i do outside! They aren't that hard to ride. I've fallen only three times on a crack filled driveway. The best way to spend a day!



Ps. I might do a video review with some footage of me riding.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - LIKE NOTHING EVER BEFORE!!!!!!!!!
The ripstik is GREAT! On my 5th try I mastered it. It has awsome turns cause the two wheels can turn. I HIGHLY recomend this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WORD



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bought for 9 year old
This is alot more fun than a skateboard. Since you move forward by twisting your hips there is less time spent with your foot off the board. After a couple of times trying, my 9 year old son and I were both able to stay on. Watching someone ride this board is fun. It has a fluid look to its motion once you get the hang of it. At first I was apprehensive at the cost, but now that I have tried it, I recommend buying a Ripstick



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So much fun !!!
One of the best inventions I wish I had as a kid. I find myself riding this thing for hours. I love it!! It's great on large paved areas where you can turn quickly, go down hill, and turn 360 degrees. It's not as much fun to travel miles on the Ripstik on a narrow sidewalk, where turning and circling is impossible. The most difficult part of learning to ride the Ripstik, is learning how to get on and off of it without killing yourself. Once you've mastered that, its a breeze propelling yourself ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great deal!
This was a great deal and got to pick our color. Saved me on tax and shipping. My 9 year old loves this ripstik. Had to talk with Ripstik customer service about a part and they were very helpful and efficient. Would buy again.
