AWESOME! November 21, 2008 cathie farina (Ohio) 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 Sandra M. Hockert (Apple Valley MN) 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 Lisa Suarez 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 S. Peterson (Grand Island, NE) 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 your mom (Virginia United States) I got this for my 10 year old. He picked it up quickly and loves it!
