I will never forget when these came out as a kid and I begged my dad for one for Christmas! It was so new that when people seen me riding it they always asked “what is that!?”. I had already been riding a skateboard for a few years so I picked it up fairly easy. The beauty of a ripstik is that you get the feel of a surf board and a snow board when riding. Hills are so fun just carving in and out is just so relaxing. Now I’m almost 30 with 2 kids and just bought a ripstik at a yard sale for 50¢ lol. My kids are so salty because I can ride it like a pro and they are still learning😂 Ripstik sums up my childhood really. The age of emerging technology yet things still required some effort and sweat. Now these kids just cruise on electric boards if they can get away from the internet long enough. Ya know, avoiding anything that requires any type of manual labor lmao
Yo! I feel that! I basically introduce the ripstik into my hood here in Venezuela and ppl was like: wtf?? Then like 1 month later they were in the market and I already knew what to do and all, good times :)
No lie. At first I thought it was also very easy to ride, then i got one and it was hard! Once i learned it felt as it got more smoother like a surf board.
wow srsly I didn't know ripstick can do this much cool stuffs! I saw some people commenting this is useless, blablabla but to me this is awesome. hardflip on a ripstick?! that made my day. you guys are awesome!
Eric Poon if you have enough practice you can do a lot of things skateboards can’t but there are also things a skateboarder can do that this can’t for isn’t ripstiks have a much sharper turning radius, but skateboards can backwards or forwards
@@kilroywashere9343 and skateboards have no balance factor you can't fall of from just riding in a straight line even a begginer wouldn't fall off a straight line
I have respect for these dudes the only ones in the skating community to give the ripstik a chance and actually put in work to pull off these tricks kudos
Rip no one ripsticks anymore and it looks fun. Ripstick, you guys need to make more vids im sure it would draw a bunch of attention and even maybe become popular
Well not really. Skating would be considered easy because of easy balance, but casterboarding is way easier because it's easier to turn and requires little effort to keep it going. It all depends on the person. If you got a caster board and just tried to ride it for a couple of hours straight, you will find that it is easier than a skateboard.
+BlaconandBiscuits skateboarding is easier bottom line, anything you wanna learn on the ripstik learn it on a skateboard first, because the skateboard has 4 wheels it acts as training wheels for anything you may want to learn on the ripstik.
I can't even get on the ripstick once I'm on I can go forever but you guys can run and get on.Geez it takes me a minute to get on while holding something.
Mikayla Bijlhout watch a video on mounting then practice while holding on to things and you will eventually get it. It took me about 10 or 15 tries before I was confident with getting on without things to hold onto
Seems the dipstick focuses on precision with the wheels over all else. Threading the needle is the name of the game. Riding over and through terrain smoothly
I learned how to ride at 9 from a friends ripstik and I finally bought one 2 years ago but i don’t know any tricks yet, i bought one just to travel around. It’s really scary when you’re trying to stop from speeding on a hill so I’m currently working on that.
"If there's anything that skateboarders didn't do enough, it's break their bones. Lets reduce the number of wheels to 2, make them swivel , and make the whole thing wobble in the middle!" - inventor of ripstick Next thing they will make the griptape out of smooth teflon and replace the wheels with balls that roll in any direction.
mrkiky athe initial learning curve is much steeper for a ripstik, but it ends up being a lot safer than a. Skateboard. You can't really have the ripstik fly out from under you, which is what often causes injuries on skateboards. The ripstik just tips over as soon as you loose balance.
anybody else ready for that UnoBoardStick 2020? Lol The ultimate balancing while skating, super unseen holy tricks, dare devil death board on a wheel. The UnoBoardStick 2020
Commander Hooligan I'll give it to you but I think ripstik because if you learn to ride a skatepark you would be the center of everything it's not that common
reminds me of scooter when I see it now. I went to a skateshop 9 years ago to buy a Ripstik. The guy said they dont have it and that they dont wanna sell it. Then I just bought a normal skateboard. Loving it since day one :)
Just goes to show anything’s awesome with the right person riding it, having said that........... I’d pick a skateboard 99 Times out of ten for most of these tricks, still cool and unique
Music was good. They're not on Spotify though. I was able to find one song from Tone Tuoro, though......... great vibe. Good compilation. Skills out there. Ripstickin should blow up. It's dope
I just searched ripsticks to see if i could find anyone who can actually shred on those thing. I guess we just gotta stop comparing it to skateboards and see it as completely it's own thing.
I strait up killed my back wheel in 1 day, I went on amazon and just searched ripstik wheels and found some for like $20. If you have one of those mini ripstiks (if you don't know what I'm talking about then you probably don't have one) that are like 2 feet across or something, you might wanna just search ripstik mini wheels. Thats all I know

i am 30 moved abroad came back my old man held on to mine once in a blue moon when shit faced i ride mine love it lol
I am a skateboarder and when that dude busted a front side flip my opinion on rip sticks changed
No lie. At first I thought it was also very easy to ride, then i got one and it was hard! Once i learned it felt as it got more smoother like a surf board.
I could never skateboard, but I have found I have a natural talent for the ripstik
@@daddybadbad same. I think it's manoeuvrability that makes it feels more comfortable for me.
@@a_green_cat yeah I like how smooth it is it’s like your gliding
3:19 this clip called me a loser in four different languages, including the enchantment table language.
So I'm not alone
CalvinDeklined how do you start your rip stick lol
@@easton514 very carefully while clinging to a wall 😎
CalvinDeklined woah-
I love these things, I’ve always been bad at pushing with my legs, so I really enjoy never having to take my feet off the board

@@justlivin3998 ?
Satan Skateboards most definitely have a balance factor
Definitely on my to-do list
They are really fun!
hey! four years later.. did u ever get to do it
How’s it going? Have you gotten good at riding a ripstick??
2:08
How did the ripstick not break?!
Pretty sure that model just bends like that.
I mean some are rubber
Lol i have one and its very flexible
Because they aren’t just a piece of wood with wheels, but spades with a metal rod shoved inside.
its a ripstik air, i think its made of rubber or some other flexible material because the air is made for doing tricks and stuff
2:08
I cringed so hard when it started bending O-O'''
I have respect for these dudes the only ones in the skating community to give the ripstik a chance and actually put in work to pull off these tricks kudos
It's amazing how you do that with a ripstick
The 50/50 in the bowl was sick i gotta admit that
No one can deny these look so fun
Rip no one ripsticks anymore and it looks fun. Ripstick, you guys need to make more vids im sure it would draw a bunch of attention and even maybe become popular
its a gimmick at best
Great video, The world would be such a boring place if everyone did/enjoyed the same thing.
Got to give em props I bet this is ten times harder than skateboarding

This is a lot easier than skateboarding for me.
CleverFool Try a kick flip on a Ripstik it's way harder.
They make it look like you could just go from a regular skateboard to RipStik but really know you can't
I love the shots with the puddles. Great vid
I can't even get on the ripstick once I'm on I can go forever but you guys can run and get on.Geez it takes me a minute to get on while holding something.
Mikayla Bijlhout watch a video on mounting then practice while holding on to things and you will eventually get it. It took me about 10 or 15 tries before I was confident with getting on without things to hold onto
Just start by hopping with one foot on back then step on with slow speed and swing back and forth to build speed
I have the same problem right now
i have a ripstick G and im trying to learn how to jump it.Do you guys think you could do a video on how to jump a ripstick?
Jewelia Dobkins i could explain it if u want?
Aidz explain
Pl
i have a ripstik g too i would lke a vid for that aswell

..and here I am just doing figure 8's inside my house, thinking I'm pretty cool

And no speed wobbles on hills either. Also less friction with 2 wheels so you can go further without feeling tired.
mrkiky stfu 9y/o
2:09 oh ok
its like skateboarding on hard mode.
N0MADO it’s like skateboarding on restricted mode so you can’t do any tricks other than drop in on a bowl
+Harper Bentley Not if you actually sucks, everything is possible with the ripstik, I can even do handstands with them.
@@harperbentley9661 did u not watch the video..? Lol they did like 50 tricks grinds flips drops ..what video where u watching
That opening scene was sick af. Lol. I thought I was looking thru some weird window or something and then wOOOp fkd my brain holes…
LOL rn holy
you guys are awesome
Mad respect.
That would feel so smooth
UA-cam put this under science and technology LOL
Wait Nani?
I tried this after being pretty decent at skateboarding and almost died. I'm impressed.
Where do u get the flexible Rip stick from like the middle part is more flexible then some others
This dude shreds harder then most dudes on a skateboard, if you got some shit talking, i suggest you leave that for your babysitter
homie scoots skating is much more narlier than dropping off a few curbs just saying watch Aaron hamoki Lyon 25
I agree with the description!

Awesome vid Guys
Man I lost my ripstick somehow years ago
Great video.......
This guys got strong ankles
Super!
Por fin uno que a la español
I've ridden a ripstick, it isn't easy. Riding a skateboard might be more respectable but this shit is was harder. Props to these guys, wow.
Commander Hooligan I'll give it to you but I think ripstik because if you learn to ride a skatepark you would be the center of everything it's not that common
You guys are the best rip stickers in the world

Ohhh! Damn! That is the skatepark I go to!
Wait he jumped on a huge stone and the rip stick didn’t break!!! It’s soft! Mind changing😮 great work❤❤❤
wow they are far more durable but flexible than what i thought they would be
Really Awesome
you are very good at ripstick
Music was good. They're not on Spotify though. I was able to find one song from Tone Tuoro, though......... great vibe.
Good compilation. Skills out there. Ripstickin should blow up. It's dope
I have a waveboard and i didnt know you can do that much thing on it! Im soo afraid to fall so i dont think i can do this moves but still cool!!
Same I’m so scared- I also don’t have a helmet which is a huge prob- and I can’t go on it unless I hold on to something- I really need suggestions
Me gustan tus videos

lOOk 👀 at that bend in the rip stick
I just searched ripsticks to see if i could find anyone who can actually shred on those thing. I guess we just gotta stop comparing it to skateboards and see it as completely it's own thing.
I love how they put the shot at 1:35
This song's groovy
Childhood
THAT LOOKS HARD,.
That's what she said...
it is actually pretty easy
BlaconandBiscuits Not really for tricks. It's harder to do tricks on a Ripstik.
nice
i do ripstick for five years and idk how they do that :0
Wich is best weve board
im looking for new wheels for my ripstik, are there ones that is recommened?
possibly for cruising.

I cant even stand on a ripstick WTF!!
Jayden Clarke well nobody should just stand
Get a rolling start and stand as straight as you can and you'll get the hand of it I learned I about 1 hour :D
it’s easier to balance when it’s moving fast
*ripstik breaks*
Alright guys let’s go to Toy’R’us and get a new one
Hey ripstick official do you know when the ripsurf is coming to Australia
Because I have seen them on eBay but the postage price is
Really expencive.

And the amount of balance it takes to grind.....how sway
I wish I can do that
