Sports reviews of The Wave Ripple Junior Street Surfing Board-Little Rippy

Customer Review: Favorite Birthday Present!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Bought this for my son's 9th birthday. I chose the smaller version, designed for the younger set. After half an hour or so, he was riding like a pro! He rides it every time he's outside. He doesn't walk much anymore!

Some thing's I'd like to mention....because of all the riding, one of the screws that holds the two parts together loosened and fell out making it come apart. Found the screw, put back in, works fine again. Make sure to check them regularly. Also, after 3 months of use, the front wheel was completely worn down. I'd already ordered replacements on Amazon, so it was not problem to replace the wheels...it's now riding good as new.

The only downside to the junior version is peer pressure. All my son's friends have the regular ripstick or wave, even those younger than him....so it makes him feel like a baby to have a small one. He still rides it everywhere....but never misses the opportunity to say he wishes he had a big one. Just something to think about when purchasing the jr version, which is not much different in price from the regular one.

Description of The Wave Ripple Junior Street Surfing Board-Little Rippy

The Ripple is an inline action board that fuses sufing, snowboarding and skateboarding. The Wave's two wheel rotating design makes it fun for sharp turns and 360's. The flexible platforms allows you to carve uphill and downhill. The Ripple is for riders ages 5 to 14.

Everyone's talking about the Wave street surfer inline action board, which blends the sensations of surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding in a single fun design. The Wave--which runs on two wheels rather than four--gives you the ability to perform precision 360s in small spaces, carve downhill, and even ride uphill, making it a blast for riders of all ages. And, of course, riders can perform all manner of skating tricks, including manuals, board leaps, ollies, acid drops, kick flips, and more. This particular version of the Wave, called the Ripple, is specially designed to meet the needs of younger riders. It's proportionally smaller than the Wave in length and width, letting the rider take a narrower stance to match his or her riding needs, yet still offers the same level of maneuverability and performance.

Like the Wave, the Ripple is distinguished by a spring-oriented torsion bar that controls the flexible front and rear panels, along with a pair of fully rotating 360-degree wheels with ABEC5 bearings. Once on the board, the rider merely twists his or her hips back and forth in an S-shaped motion to propel down the street, with no foot propulsion required. Even better, it takes only a few minutes to learn how to ride the Ripple. Within a few hours, most riders will become proficient. And riders needn't worry about the Ripple's durability, as the platforms are made of a virtually indestructible ABS plastic, while the steel torsion bar never wears down. This "Little Rippy" version of the Ripple, which is designed for riders between the ages of 5 and 14, measures 28 by 8 by 5 inches (W x H x D), weighs 8 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.
