Sports reviews of RipStik DLX Caster BoardCustomer Review: 5th Grade Boy loves it! Sport shop rating: 4 StarsSturdy build, looks cool, my 11 year old took about 90 seconds to figure it out, and now can really ride it. Has to be fantastic exercise for legs, lower back, balance development, etc. This device requires some athleticism to use - appears harder than skate board.
Would NOT recommend for too young (6 yr?) or too old (break bones when you fall) or someone who is not in really good shape. I have seen some kids try it and get very frustrated with the task of combining so many motions at once.
WOULD recommend for skate boarder, inline skater or other activity like that.
Description of RipStik DLX Caster BoardNew Pro-Style features modified off the classic ripstik design. Get your grind on with a spinning aluminum torsion bar. Kick flip higher with new lighter weight design. Carve downhill faster with ABEC-7 bearings. Land smoother with new riser pads. Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the Ripstik caster board is distinguished by its pivoting deck and 360-degree inclined caster trucks, which offers a snowboard-like carving ability. The RipStik DLX features an aluminum torsion bar for wicked grinds and carbon fiber deck graphics. Like the original Ripstik, the DLX moves you forward with a simple weight transfer that lets you turn or accelerate without pushing--just like when you're carving down the slopes. 
The aluminum torsion bar in the center is ready for extreme grinding. |  | 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 kids 8 years and up, the Ripstik's plastic end platforms and metal torsion beam support up to 220 pounds. Key Features: - Inclined caster trucks
- Concave deck platform with carbon fiber graphics
- Riser pads
- Aluminum torsion bar
- 76-millimeter polyurethane wheels
- High-performance ABEC-5 bearings
- For ages 8 years and older
