Official How to Ride a RipStik Ride Guide

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 KZbin 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 KZbin! Enjoy!!

“If you don’t have a friend” What a relief

[@sirmcgurrgles3515]

I literally use a ripstik the same way as a skate board and it works

I learned this when I was about 50. After I fell and got a sweet concussion it was all good after that. I figured it can't get any worse. The furthest I rode was about 10 miles on it. Great workout!

Yeah alot of roads are rocky and sidewalks will send you flying if they are old and have large gaps and steep stones

[@zapario4460]

Yeah I’m really disappointed being I have no where to learn and I don’t have a helmet so I don’t want to try on concrete

[@zackfielder]

I had one about 10 or 12 years ago, rode it all the time while the kids rode their bikes, now I got one at a thrift store for $15 and got the smaller one for my 8 year old, he learned very quickly and now it’s literally all he wants to do, even inside and now I have to do some drywall repairs but at least he’s not staring at a screen all day.

Honestly this didn't catch on as well as it shouldve. Maybe the bright design and toy like feel. But its so relaxing, smooth and fun to use. Im on it for hours a day after work. Its such a great low impact exercise for your legs too.

Yeah I thought so as well until I practiced now I can get decent speed. I've only been practicing for a day and I've also gotten pretty aggravated with it but stick to it you'll get better.

What I basically do is wave the back part faster and it kinda works

Bruh seven years do they still even make ripsticks?😭

[@jordanjonescelestialwaffle1698]

@@jackpokrywka542 UES they still make them

[@Bladeninja76]

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.
