Ripstik Caster Board
Skateboards have been around for years so it was only a matter of time before someone took the original concept and enhanced it. That is what the people at Ripstik have done. They have introduced us to the Ripstik Caster Board and riding and have done away with the traditional, old-fashioned board in favor of something new and innovative.
The design of this family of boards is such that each foot moves independently. This allows you to move along easier and with less effort. The back and forth motion of the alternating foot movements is what propels you faster. Also, you will notice that the ends of the board are different. The Ripstik Caster Board is designed to only move in the direction of the "nose" end of the board. These boards are also different in that speed equals stability so the faster you move on one, the more control you have.
When you look into this brand you will see that there are several different styles to choose from. First is the Air Pro. This is the ultimate board for those who like to fly while they ride. It is not only lightweight, but also it is designed as a one-piece unit for unique capabilities. And it comes with a self-centering caster spring for making solid landings.

For those who like to ride the rails the G Model Ripstik Caster Board is the perfect choice. It is designed to give you a super smooth grinding experience. It will feel like you are surfing on dry land. All you have to do is twist and go and the twisting motion moves you forward. It comes with aircraft-grade aluminum G-tube, inclined caster trucks and a pivoting deck.
The Limited Model and the Classic Model are similar to the G in that is feels as if you are bringing surfing or snowboarding onto dry land. Both incorporate 360-degree casters, which are inclined, and pivot which allows you to move without even having to push off of the ground.
The Ripster brings the same feel and dynamics except that it accomplishes it in a compact size. It is actually a smaller version of the Classic Model. The reason for this design is to help those with a narrower stance. It is also perfect for individuals who would like to perform more tricks. The lightweight design along with the shorter wheelbase makes this possible.
Rounding out the selections is a unique model that can be ridden like a typical Ripstik or as inline skates! Simply remove the bar and your Ripstik becomes a pair of inline skates. The flexibility of creating a separate riding unit out of the same Ripstik with make your friends green with envy. It also gives you more foot control due to the concave shape of the deck.
All of the models come in their own selection of colors. Try any of the models in the Ripstik Caster Board family and you'll experience the fun and thrills that go along with this clever take on the original board!
