Let it rip like never before! The Razor RipStik Caster Board's inline caster trucks and pivoting deck provide snowboard-like carving ability.

The Razor RipStik comes with a free "How to Ride" DVD. Read and understand the enclosed owner's manual before riding. Safety equipment such as a helmet is recommended.

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.

5 out of 5 stars My son loves it   September 7, 2008
E. Sokoloski (New Jersey)
My son wanted this and I figured here we go again another thing for him NOT to do.
He loves it. It took him a while to get good at it and get the hang of it, but it was worth it. Now he does it all the time.



5 out of 5 stars My daughter loves it!   August 29, 2008
D. Baker
She practices with this thing every chance she gets. I have not tried it but with a few hours proctice, she is doing very well staying balanced and moving around obstacles. Good exercise and would highly recommend it


5 out of 5 stars amazing   August 20, 2008
Milentije Trifunovic (Winston Salem, NC USA)
this is like a snowboard. I love it. I have fallen a couple of times and have scars to prove it but that is because i was fooling around. my only complaint is that the wheels wear out pretty fast and a replacement set is 12 bucks, which isn't really that expensive, but it adds up over time. i caution some people that it will take time for you to be able to ride the ripstick, but once you get it, its a feeling like no other

Karen Forman (East Northport, NY)
My twin daughters are turning 15 and they absolutely love their Ripstiks. They go everywhere with them! Great exercise and lots of fun! Thanks.


4 out of 5 stars Ripstik review   August 11, 2008
T. Dixon
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!
