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.

Comment: I recommend this product. It works quite well ans safe, and regardless of you consider it as a toy or a new sport tool or regardless could be a present for a birhtday child (which it was my case) it would be always a nice present.

Summary: Ripstik Rolls! 2008-07-09
Comment: My son asked for this product after trying out a friends'. He couldn't wait to get it out of the box and still spends time with it a month later...my only complaint is that it is much harder to control than a bike or scooter and there have been several instances when he has had to jump off to avoid a crash.....not the best toy to use on neighborhood streets....
