RipStik "G" Grind Caster Board Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great buy for anybody. I saw my friend riding a wave board and he let me try it when I inquired what it was. It was a lot of fun and very addicting. He told me that if i bought one to get a waveboard because the waveboard was better that the ripstik because it had a smoother ride and it was better built. I went to Walmart and was looking at the wave boards and I saw the ripstick G. It looked a lot cooler so I bought it. To tell you the truth, this is the coolest board out there. I love this board and ride it everyday.

The only reason to buy this over a ripstick is if you are going to "grind", which is going on a rail. It is also better built and has a smoother ride than most other boards. If your going to buy it, buy it on Amazon. It's cheaper than anywhere else and it also gets you free shipping.

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 "G" features a spinning aircraft-grade aluminum "G" tube in the center for extreme grinding action. Like the original Ripstik, the "G" 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 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 Wave Board Wheels / Street Surfing Wheels Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After 3 months of riding his Wave Jr., my son had completely worn down the front wheel. I had ordered these a little while ago, when there was a nice price drop.
They work great! But the reason for the 4 stars.....it was quite difficult to get the bearings in the wheels. It took me about 20 min to half an hour to replace them, which should have only taken minutes. Had to use a hammer to get the bearings in...and I was sweating the fact that I might break them doing it that way. But there was no way my fingers were going to push those in. Don't know why they don't already come packaged ready to put on. You're obviously going to use the new bearings...why aren't they already in place?
