Amazon.com Product Description
Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the red RazorX 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. In addition, 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. The board also comes with a free How to Ride DVD.

 AWESOME! November 21, 2008
My daughter LOVES LOVES this! It took about a week to get the balance but once she did she has NOT stopped! It is a GREAT "Core" workout and is fun so she doesn't even think it's exercise...just fun! The cool thing with this is how you can go up hill once you learn how to do the weaving back and forth motion (a friend showed her). So it is better than a skate board - you can go uphill weaving then turn around and coast back down hill. One caution -- don't go downhill too fast becasue there is really no good way to stop other than jumping off. My daughter says there is no way to stop because you will loose balance so you can only jump off! -- WEAR HELMETS and KNEE PADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RipStik is a hit! November 19, 2008
I bought one for my daughter's 10th birthday. She loves it! It came with a video on how to use it and do tricks, and she watched it before using it the first time. Even though MN winters start early, she has been on it more than what I expected. I recommend this product for anyone who loves to skateboard - it's a step up in difficulty, but once mastered, it offers much more flexibility.
So much fun! November 11, 2008
My ten-year-old son had been wanting this for so long. I finally gave in! He loves it! He takes it with him whenever we head outside.
AWESOME!!! November 11, 2008
RipStik ~~ What a great idea! My kids love their RipStiks!!! They learned to ride in about 15 minutes. We put on our helmets, knee pads, elbow pads, etc., but there were no falls! They were riding wonderfully in day or two. An EXCELLENT form of exercise!!!!!
Awesome November 10, 2008
I got this for my 10 year old. He picked it up quickly and loves it!
