who likes the ripstick?

i was in toys r us today with my mom and they opend a bunch of ripsticks for people to ride. i was ridin it around the store and it was ok but its not nearly as good as a skateboard. you can even do any tricks.



also i ran into some old lady and she startted yelling at me and every body was laughing cuz it was hilarious even the workers were laughing.

**** haha naw but i was on one of those too in the story there so aqward lol but therye really fun

You can do tricks on them. They're pretty gay though. There's a vid on YouTube where a guy does a nollie flip on one - search it.

I would just stick with skating, I hate gimmicks.

there are many threads about it. Searchbar!
and i it's gay. I stick to old good woodpushing.

They're fun to mess around with, that's about it.

Never rode one, want to just for kicks. Looks kind of cool how you don't have ot put your feet on the ground to move after your first push I guess..

there stupid and you look gay riding them.

i tried my cousins, it was pretty fun for like, 5 minutes. it didnt seem worth the 20 minutes figuring out how to ride it though lol.

it looks pretty boring to me.The only time I probably would ever use one is if I was going to bomb a hill.

ive tried to skat one but i dont have the patience...i'll stick with wood pushing

kerry seriously dont make more than 1 account...

entertaining for an hour..then you feel weird getting back on your board.

mann stick with the board ripsticks suck wee wee.

you can barly do anything on those

they look pretty weird. People need to just buy skateboards. There is that split second when I see it and it looks cool, but then I remember that it's the wannabe skateboard that says "Hey come ride me! I make you cool!!! I am sold at walmart and I have two wheels! Eat that skateboards! SUPREME OWNAGE" and thats when I say "umm...no."

i think theyre way more like surfboards or snowboards than skateboards and i thought it was pretty fun when i first rode one but i agree it gets really boring after while...id love to see reynolds do a fs flip on one of THOSE! :icon_bigg

Yeah he said that his password or something like that changed because he couldnt get on so he made a new account.Everyone is saying that his account got banned or suspended.

there just gay dont get one waste of 100 bucks

Im pretty sure the ripstik is a whole different sport then skateboarding. Its not a gimmick, and its not trying to copy skateboarding, its just a different sport. You people get all edgy over anything remotely like a skateboard.w

dudes ripstick and skateboarding are two completely different sports...i agree with zeroskater1223 yeah skateboardings hella fun, but so is ripstick.....ripsticks just more for the guys who love to surf and or snowboard but also like to go chill at the locl skatepark.......man there shouldnt be any hating on these guys all their doin is tryin to chill and perfect their sport just like all you skateboarders....ive done both, skateboarding a lil bit longer but i picked up ripstick quick from surfing and wakeboarding and man its just as fun as skateboaring.... give it a chance maybe one day itll get big as pushin some wood, but dont be hatin on these guys for likin a different sport than you:icon_peac

I tried one a couple years ago when a random dude saw me skating and he's like " Hey kid I see you can skate why don't you try this out?" I could ride it for ****.
