Product Description
The Razor RipStik Deluxe Caster Board has aluminum inlined caster trucks and pivoting deck provide a snowboard-like carving ability. Its unique design allows acceleration and turning without pushing. Comes with polyurethane wheels and ABEC-7 bearings for a smooth ride, concave deck platforms, traction plates and kick nose.
Amazon.com Product Description
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
- 220-pound rider weight capacity

We bought this for our son's 12 birthday. He really loves it. It is a lot smoother then his first one. He got just a regular rip stick a couple of years ago. He uses it all the time. He jumps ramps and is learning how to grind with it. Awesome buy.

My 12 yr old son and his friends truely enjow the RipStik. It took them about a week or so and they were able to ride it. The construction seems solid. He's had his for a year now and no problems at all. However, be prepared to replace the wheels ($[...]/pair) every 4-6 weeks depending on riding surface and usage.

We have 3 of these. We have not had any problems in the last 18 months with them. They are used several times a week by my 9-11 yr olds. They love them.

Sturdy 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.
RipStik is Sick!!! January 25, 2009

Hmm...What shall I say about the RipStik? It's pretty sick! This DLX version of the RipStik is pretty cool. It is lighter and faster than the regular one. I actually have both, but I like the control on the DLX version. I especially like the design of the board itself the carbon fiber look is nice...very nice. It was so nice I didn't even want to use it; I just wanted to hang it on my wall or something. You guys should buy this product to try out. It's great for kids, teenagers, and adults! I'm 22 and I use it...I use it for trainning myself for snowboarding. get it and find out!
