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.

The RipStik Rules!!
I received the RipStik for my 11th birthday and I love it! It can be a challenge to stay balanced at first but in a few days you can ride like the wind! Begin by practicing on a small hill. I like that the wheels turn 360 degrees…it makes it easier to get started. It turns smoothly and is MUCH more fun than a skateboard. The grips help you stay on the board, even if your sneakers don’t have good treads. This is the best outdoor toy I’ve ever received. If you know someone who loves a challenge, they will adore the RipStik!!
GREAT BIRTHDAY GIFT/EXERCISE TOOL FOR YOUNG AND OLD
MY SON ASKED FOR THIS GIFT FOR HIS BIRTHDAY. I WAS KIND OF CONCERNED WITH GETTING IT AND IT JUST SITTING AROUND. FORTUNATELY, HE HAS BEEN RIDING IT AND ENJOYING IT. AFTER REVIEWING THE WEB SITE AND READING ABOUT THE RIPSTICK, I THOUGHT IT WOULD ALSO BE A GOOD EXERCISE TOOL FOR HIM. IT SEEMS THAT IT WORKS GOOD ON THE COORDINATION AND WAISTLINE AREA. WHEN I GET ENOUGH NERVE I AM GOING TO TRY IT MYSELF. I CAN BENEFIT FROM THE EXERCISE PART.
totally cool
I gave my son a Ripstik for his 10th birthday in March. Any day that the weather allows (no snow) he was riding it. He’s really getting the hang of balancing it and can stay on it quite awhile. I love it because it’s a toy that keeps him active and he doesn’t seem to be getting tired of it. He says, “Even though it’s hard to start it, once you’ve had it for awhile you’ll be able to ride it. It is very fun, it’s better than video games.”
