Description of Ripstik Caster Board (Red)
Razor RIPSTIK in-line caster board. Easier to ride than a skateboard. Plastic end platforms with metal torsion beam. 86A Inline-type wheels on precision ABEC-5-sealed bearing casters. Spiked traction pads and kick tail and raised nose with concave design for tricks and improved footing. Ages 8+, weight limit 220lbs.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.

Sports reviews of Ripstik Caster Board (Red)
Customer Review: non-stop "indoor" fun
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Our family loves the Rip Stick! Because the wheels are brand new and we have hardwood floors through-out our house---the kids 7--13yrs and my hubby have been on it non-stop! Can't wait till the snow melts and it can be used outside! It was a quick--less than 15 min learning curve for my family--with the exception of me....Customer Review: Cool toy, easy to master
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Rip-Stiks are cool products. My son(8) got this and was able to master it fairly easily. Due to the squiggling, it is easier to go uphill. Of course, you cannot go uphill on very steep inclines.
He was able to learn it quickly and have fun with it. All his friends also feel that it is a cool toy.
Customer Review: Rip Roarin Great
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I have nothing but great things to say about the service that Amazon provides. Not only do they carry great products, but the price was much lower on the Rip Stick that I purchased, than I could purchase it for in the stores. Not to mention there was no tax and free shipping!! What's not to love! Great Job !!Customer Review: Good fun on the Ripstick!

We bought a ripstick for our 11 year old son, who immediately started riding it around the house anywhere there was no carpet. However, those of us 35 and older had much more difficulty and decided that a broken bone was not worth the thrill of the ride. He loves it!!Customer Review: Grandsons' Favorite Christmas Gift

We bought one Ripstick G for our grandson's to share, but they loved it so much and had so much fun with it we bought a second one right after Christmas. Now they both have their own (red and green) and love it. We bought helmets for each of them, too.
