To do an ollie (jump) on a Ripstick is the same way as on a skate board, it's not to hard after practice but what you'll want to do is kick back hard on the back end of the board while at the same time jumping then to stabilize the board drag you front foot forward while your in the air. It's a very difficult procedure but with practice you could master it, it took my friend a year and me about 4 month but it varies from person to person but the hard part is you'll need to land back on the board which is very hard with only two wheels. if this helps you in any way please reply.

Are skateboards and snowboards kids' toys? While they certainly appeal to kids, they are also perfect for fun-loving teens and adults as well. Skateboarding and Snowboarding have become big sports in recent years, and the Ripstik Caster Board is perfect for those who love it or those who want to try it. With a sleek, fun, and unique design, as well as awesome features for a great ride board, the Caster Board will provide hours of fun and excitement for any age. The Ripstik Caster Board is a cross between a skateboard and a snowboard, making it one of the best toys for those who love speed and excitement. Its deck pivots and the 360 degree casters allow for carving action that simulates snowboarding. You can turn or pivot to transfer your weight, which allows you to turn or accelerate without having to kick, just as you would while snowboarding. The Caster Board is packed with excellent features that make tricks a breeze. Spiked traction pads, the concave design of the deck, and the kick tail and kick nose offer you more control, and the 76 mm polyurethane wheels deliver a great ride. There are high-performance ABEC-5 bearing casters, which also help make your ride smooth, even on bumpy, cracked, or uneven pavement. Unlike skateboards, the Ripstik Caster Board has two wheels, and two extras are included when you buy yours. The Ripstik Caster Board also features a rubber-padded handle in between the rugged traction plates. This can be used for carrying or tricks. The front and back traction plates are controlled by a metal torsion bar, which offers great suspension and shock value. This allows it to carry riders up to 220 pounds and offer the same great maneuverability. The Ripstik Caster Board is designed for users age eight and up, making it a perfect choice for a child or yourself. Skateboards and snowboards are some of the top toys because they appeal to so many people. No matter who you buy the Caster Board for, they will be sure to appreciate the fantastic features and the sleek, innovative design. - Rey Tristan Joshua B. Unay, 1st year, Philippines

well, usually when you get a rip stick must listen to the directions on the disk, but you don't have to try to master all of the moves.

To separate the ripstik, all you have to do is unscrew both screws by the wheels, then pull it apart
