  • The Official RipStik Ride Guide from RipStik! It now has over 500,000 views under the original release from the nbscooters account prior to RipStik having an Official UA-cam Channel. It's time to get it over under our arsenal of videos! We looked for an HD version, but unfortunately this RipStik Ride Guide was produced before HD was supported on UA-cam! Enjoy!!

    Here's how to stop without looking like a noob.
    1. Bend your knees and reach for the torsion bar in the middle.
    2. Step off with your front foot and use that same foot to lift your body off the Ripstick while you pull the Ripstik forward off the ground by grabbing the torsion bar.
    3. Move the Ripstik to your side and walk like a boss.

The Classic I use if I'm coasting around town or bombing some decent hills, (when I miss snowboarding enough haha) and the RipSter I'll use if I'm in the mood to just carry it/coast with it a little bit just to get somewhere close or to have a little fun, and I'd say the G is mostly for attempting skateboard tricks. Whatever you want to do, I'd start with the Classic.
