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. | | | Features: | |

 Wheels break too fastAug 14, 2010
I was really annoyed when only after an hour of riding it, the front wheel shattered. I called up the Ripstik company and they sent me some free wheels, but the problem there was they were the same wheels that shattered! If you purchase this ripstik you should also get a pair of better wheels. I recommend the WAVE wheels. They have better bearings and much better speed and quality.
 Ripstick a WinnerAug 09, 2010
My 12 year-old daughter spends half her summer days on her Ripstick. Great fun (and good for core-muscle development to boot)! She pretty much "got it" on the first go, unlike her younger sister who is not as strong .. took sis longer. Comes with DVD, mostly safety tips and a few demos. My daughter was too impatient to watch, just put her helmet on and got on her board. No probs. Happy Mom
great fun ripstick!Jul 31, 2010
great price for this ripstick found in other store for $25 more. beautiful red color and design. tricky to learn for a newby 10 year old but more fun and challenging than a regular scooter. would purchase again, very well made.
Cool toy, easy to masterJul 09, 2010
Rip-Stiks are cool products. My son(8) got this and was able to master it fairly easily. Due to the squiggling, it is easier to go uphill. Of course, you cannot go uphill on very steep inclines.
He was able to learn it quickly and have fun with it. All his friends also feel that it is a cool toy.
Great gift!!!Jul 01, 2010
Excellent birthday gift for my 8-years-old boy. He likes it very much. It took for him only few days and he has no problem with it.... It's very good gift for active boy or girl. Recommended.
