Ripstik Design

The RipStik is a board that is designed very differently than the board that you see on the market. The Board only has two wheels that rotate 360 degrees. Wheels are placed under two bridges connected by a spring bar spin. Bridge twist against each other to create the motion needed to move forward. Therefore you can be bounced without your feet touching the ground. RipStik wheels are designed to be able to ride for a long time. A typical wheel wear on the RipStik is very fast because the journey is never step off the board when riding. With design contours RipStik wheels wheels last longer. Wheel is size at 76mm and 85A, and bearing ABEC5. RipStik wheels make you go up again before you need to change it.

The bridge is made of high quality and very strong ABS plastic. You can ride your ride for a long time before you see the difference in riding ability. While the board a bit heavier than most of the type of society, the effect is really less with the card in the streets. In addition is to face and handle the bridge plate. The outside of your foot handles provide a comfortable grip around the deck of each. Therefore, if your feet slide for some reason the grip will grab your shoes and you stand on the board. In the middle of the top of each platform is a cushion grip. This non-slip pads small part to capture a lot of your shoe on the bridge. In addition to the bridge deck plates RipStik are interchangeable. There are silver, green, blue, red, pink and bridges can all be placed on each RipStik. Personalize your RipStik exchange deck plate with each other. Try putting a blue apron and a green apron at the same time, or a combination of other colors. Insert a color wheel well and your design possibilities are endless. Under the board is where the screws are located to remove the deck plate and change it. (more…)
