Ripstik Caster Board

Ripstik Caster Board was designed for snowboarding-like action on the street, a snowboard/skateboard hybrid that enables snowboard like curves on smooth, skateboard surfaces. You rip this stick!

The ultimate in downhill skateboarding, Ripstik Caster Board is a snowboard on paved slopes. Ever felt the gush of wind in your face as your adrenaline was pumping while speed is kicking in? Your board is going faster and faster without breaks down pristine peaks of unending white snow…then suddenly, summer arrives

In summer, snowboarders get out their skateboards, and it just isnt the same feeling. Ripstik Caster Board does what the first skate boards offered surfers in the off season, a way to get close to that same feeling of adrenaline, on the asphalt.

This sleek performer comes with a pivoting deck, 360-degree caster trucks, spiked traction pads, kick tail and nose, concave deck design, 76mm polyurethane wheels and precision ABEC-5 bearing casters to put up with far higher pressures than skateboard bearings ever handle.

Supporting up to 220 pounds, for children 8 years of age and up, it is important that you use protection with Ripstik Caster Board, especially around the palms, knees, elbows and head, as it will allow your body to stay healthier longer, with less risks from injury.

In the end, how much protection you use is a personal choice that each person needs to make on their own, but as any expert in adrenaline sports will tell you, you only get one pair of knees, and recovery takes longer as youget older, so be nice to your body, please.

The smarter kids will protect themselves while still having fun, the not so smart kids on the other hand, will probably spend most of their time getting hurt instead of getting those adrenaline rushes, and where is the fun in getting hurt?

Ripstik Caster Board comes with a how-to-ride DVD that will make it faster to learn, and start carving up those downhill slopes in the city, in fact, the carving motion propels the Ripstik forward even uphill or on level surfaces as needed.

Measuring 33.5″ long x 10″ wide and weighing 8 lbs, Ripstik Caster Board comes with a 90-day warranty and should always be used with proper protection to avoid unnecessary injury (wear helmet and pads for safety, please).

Snowboard in summer on the asphalt with Ripstik Caster Board, the latest in downhill skateboarding that gives you the feel of a snowboard.
