Amazon.com Product Description
Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the pink 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. Key Features: - Inclined caster trucks

- Kick nose
- Kick tail
- Rubber-padded handle
- Torsion bar
- 76-millimeter polyurethane wheels
- High-performance ABEC-5 bearings

My twin daughters are turning 15 and they absolutely love their Ripstiks. They go everywhere with them! Great exercise and lots of fun! Thanks.

We purchased the Ripstik, the smaller one, for my 9 yr old son and the larger one for my 12 yr old son. They both love it! It took a little practice (in the kitchen) to get used to it, then they ventured outside. We do require the kids to wear safety gear. Both my boys seem to prefer them over skateboards. Amazon's service was really great as usual!

5 stars for the Ripstik...1 star for the shipping. I ordered a Ripstik for my son's 9th birthday. It was shipped from California to Florida. Thankfully, the Ripstik arrived undamaged. The box it arrived in was another matter. It was crushed and torn almost completely open on both sides of the flimsy box and didn't have any packing materials to cushion the Ripstik at all. The Ripstik was completely exposed...fortunately, all parts and directions were still included and the Ripstik wasn't broken. My son LOVES his Ripstik and has become "professional" riding it everywhere.

I bought this for my husband for his 40th birthday. He started snowboarding this past winter and the ripstik is suppose to be similar movements to the snowboarding action. My husband was so thrilled and he said it is alot like the snowboarding and is a fun workout. He enjoys learning new things. This is a well made board and is a big hit with all the kids on our street too!

Other than the package arriving completely destroyed, my son loves his new ripstik and is having a lot of fun with it.
