The prompt delivery on this item was great. I have a 12-1/2 year old girl that loves the ripstik. It did not take her long to be able to learn how to move on it. She likes it much better than a skateboard. Her friends that have it feel the same way.

My son has enjoyed the Ripstick. He watched the video and after about a day of practice, he can ride it short distances. I was also very pleased with the Amazon.com price vs. retail.

My 7 year old grandson could not have been happier to get a Ripstick for Christmas. He's very athletic and took to it immediately. I wanted to get the hang of it, but it was difficult and needed more practice. It's really for everyone of most any age if they have the desire and ability.

Bought these ripsticks for 2 granddaughters. We left them under the tree till the very last. Both looked around and there eyes showed ok, Christmas is over and look what we got. Then I mentioned, "look there is 2 other presents under the tree." Both girls got wide eyed and asked, "who are they for, granny". I pulled them out and they ripped them open and screamed, "We got them in our favorite color, geen and pink. Let's go outside and try them now." One was already good at the ripstick from her older sister, the smallest granddaughtr, learned within an 1 hour and was going up and down the slopes of the sidewalk. What a grand Christmas! So glad we looked on Amazon - couldn't find the green anywhere else or the price as low.

We got this for my son for Christmas, and as he said, it was his favorite gift this year. It take a little work to get going, but once you figure it out its great fun.
Overall product seems well built: heavy duty casters, heavy plastic deck, and quality wheels and bearings.
The board is heavy, but with a max supported weight of 220 lbs it is certainly sturdy.
In terms of durability, I can't speak for the long term, but it has held up well to everyone in the neighborhood (adults included) riding it for several hours a day over the last couple weeks.
Riding the RipStik is more like snowboarding than skateboarding, and you quickly learn that stepping off to kick, is not a good idea. The board comes with an "How To" video and I recommend you watch it, as it provides a good introduction to riding it and teaches you how to turn and generate speed.
Overall I would have to agree with my son, it's My favorite gift that he got this year as well.
