Product Description 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. Amazon.com Best described as a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, the blue 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.

This is the most fun I've had with an action toy in 20 years.(I hated skate boards) It's hard to do, but delivers a great sense of satisfaction when you finally get on it and actually go more that 6 feet. After that you can't stop smiling. I now manage to stay on it between 2 and 6 minutes at a shot after about 6 2hr sessions over a four week period.(slow learner but determined) It really wears you out and I need a few days for the newly discovered muscles in my legs to recover and build strength. Its a great legs workout without actually 'working' out. Check out youtube for how to videos.Now for the scary part. When you start out, especially if you are an adult or a very mature adult like myself, you have to pad yourself so that when you fall you don't get injured. Understand this; the way that you fall off a ripstik is mostly backwards, onto your hip or butt or tail bone or elbow. I wrap a 2in thick piece of foam around my hips and back and secure it with an oversized pair of jeans I bought for the purpose.(makes me look beefy) I also wear elbow pads and my bicycle helmet, (yea I ride a bike too, but this is much more fun). I've only fallen a few times but the foam padding did the trick and I was able to get up laughing.(instead of needing a wheel chair.) I also wore knee pads when I started but came to realize that you just step off when you lose it leaning forward.Happy Rip'in
