Amazon.com Product Description
Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the green 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.

  • Inclined caster trucks
  • Concave deck platforms

  • Rubber-padded handle
  • Torsion bar

5 out of 5 stars fun!!!!!!   June 29, 2008
this is a very fun and fast little board! it has awsome speed and and can go up hills! it has a future look to it and goes really fast... i almost beat my friend down a hill while he was on a bike!


5 out of 5 stars Difficult to master, but amazingly fun   June 25, 2008
Whereas some people have been saying this product stinks for them, my experiences say that this is only due to the rider, not the board. My nine year old daughter and twelve year old son spent two days learning how to ride, frustrated at the difficulty level, but on the third afternoon, they figured out how to make it pivot repeatedly, and they have been riding for a month now for almost an hour a day with smiles on their faces.


5 out of 5 stars No regrets   June 22, 2008
Since i purchased the Ripstick Caster Board my kids spend more time outdoors that means less tv and video games too! just what i was looking for i love it.


5 out of 5 stars Great for kids   June 17, 2008

My Daughter and her friends play with them all day, great for the summer break.



5 out of 5 stars Amazing!   June 12, 2008
This was one of the best gifts that we ever bought for our 14 year old son. He loves it and rides it several hours a day. His abs are quite ripped now too! :-) It only took him a couple of days to get the hang of it and he has had it for a month and a half and can do tricks now.
