Old RipStick rider!

Ok, this is me riding a RipStick - I swore I would learn to do it before I died!



What's a RipStick, you say?

It's basically a two piece (connected by a torsion bar), two (unstable, caster) wheeled skateboard that almost defies logic when one first considers riding it!

Here's a RipStick diagram:

Disclaimer: semi-prosessional rider on a semi-closed course under semi-controlled conditions. Warning: do not try this at home, try it at someone else house - that way if you get hurt, you can sue. Always wear protective gear and never ride alone. Do NOT try to video your own ride sequence (have your 9 year old kid do it). Always brush after eating and look both ways. Be CAREFUL!
