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.

My son loves it!
I got this for my 11 year old son and was kind of worried that it would be one of those toys that got used once and then left in the back of the toy closet, but that has not been the case. He loves it and was able to get the hang of riding it pretty quickly. It's a great toy for an active boy.

Wow.
Hi I'm 12 years old. This summer I was at my beach house, and I saw my cousins ripstik in a shed. I'd heard of the ripstik, but I thought it would be impossible to learn. But I was bored, so I picked it up and tried it. At first I stunk. really. But over two days I practiced. Within two days I got good enough to ride it to town. I HAD to have it. I couldn't take it and I ran to walmart and bought it. It's been one of my best product choices. I still love it, it's easy to learn and you should should just buy it now.

If your still reading you haven't bought it yet.

BUY IT!!!!

I'm waiting...

see ya on the streets!

Ripstik
I bought this product for my ten-year old granddaughter and she loves it. The only thing is it's being represented as a Ripstik but it's really a mini-ripstik. I wrote to the people it came from and they said no, but that's what my granddaughter told me and I saw it for myself. The one I bought was much smaller.
But she loves it...

This was a wonderful purchase. My son bought it with his own money and he and his friends are playing outside more with this and he is even riding it to school. This was money well spent!!!
