My son is addicted to playing Ripstik
My son is 7 years old, he had a hard time at the beginning, but he is unbelievably good at this after just 3days. He can not help playing everydays. This is really good.

It's better than a skateboard!
I got the the ripstik and it's awesome!First of all it's easy to master and it's easier to use than it looks.If you have some trouble to decide whether to get a skateboard or a ripstik ,choose the ripstik.Second of all, it's very quick and you don't have to jump to turn.You can even go uphill by doing a furious twist.I have fallen of it once or twice,but it's very easy and fun to ride.Thanks for reading this review!

Difficult to master, but amazingly fun
Whereas some people have been saying this product stinks for them, my experiences say that this is only due to the rider, not the board. My nine year old daughter and twelve year old son spent two days learning how to ride, frustrated at the difficulty level, but on the third afternoon, they figured out how to make it pivot repeatedly, and they have been riding for a month now for almost an hour a day with smiles on their faces.
