Official How to Ride a RipStik Ride Guide 

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

I got ripstik in 2020 and I can’t BELIEVE that I missed out this long

I'll stick with the wall

I have 7 years with my ripstick, I can ride it but never learnt how to get on it, so now I'm watching every ripstick video

Got one of these like 8 years ago or so and had to learn by trial and error. I was only twisting the tail to speed up without relation to the nose lol. Just ordered a new one after giving my old one away to a family friend and cant wait to try it out

Just thrifted one for $3.50, hands down my best purchase ever

I love how at 0:20 they say where all your safety gear and yet the guy is only waring a helmet :3

I'm 60 and learned in 10 minutes, but not smooth yet

I remember my cousins and siblings would play ripstick soccer. Was so much fun because the board is so maneuverable and you could get some cheeky kicks by flicking out the tail as you pass the ball.

2023 just got it off Facebook Marketplace for $5 😂 got a helmet from Walmart for $30.. let’s do this

If you don't have a friend...... That's me alright.

So helpful! Rotating the front foot feels very difficult. I can only manage to speed up with the back foot so far.

Sweet video! My son (11) got his Ripstick last year and he loves it!! Thanks for the videos!!

Why am I watching this even though I already know how to ride a ripstik

I got one for christmas cant wait to learn how to ride it and ride at the park when im bored so ready to have fun. :D

My dad just bought me a ripstick, i already tried step 2. Thanks for the tut! Really helpful!

I’ll stand by this product and say when I first started learning how to snowboard I was terrible and it really did help me having this

Dude thanks I could never got this but this is scary so ya i got my rips tickets from my brothers boss and I’m happy that she or he gave it to me

I just bought one of these suckers for $10 on goodwill. Best $10 and destroyed knee caps EVER.

I for this like 2 years ago and never touched it, just learned how to do it in 15 minutes with this video. Thank you.

I’ve been riding a ripstik since 2010. I advise not taking it down a steep hill. I learned that the hard way a couple years ago and I used a car to balance.

i am just learning to ride the rip stick and on my first day i could do all execpt the stopping because i didn´t watch it today is the first day

I already have a waveboard which is basically the same thing but cheaper.I really want. Ripstik air badly but it's just really expensive here in the Philippines

wow! i was just wondering how to gain speed on these, thanks dude ;)

I found a nice one cleaning out a tenants apt. I'm 50 so a little nervous...I do snowboard tho, once you get going is the footwork similar?

Some people think that using your front foot to move is weird it is just easier to me and others and if that's hard to you just simply use your left foot mostly

I remember I use to ride one of these in middle school and one day I went down a car walk with one and scorpion Ed myself good times good times

yeonjun looked so cool riding it and it looked like sm fun since i like boarding already so this has been my new obsession ive been missing out

my parents got a ripstik for me and my siblings for christmas a while back and i just now took it out of storage so i guess it’s time to learn

He did a great job explaining it’s just I still can’t seem to be able to pick up speed the way he does I start wobbling then I crash.

Is it hard to learn to ride a rip stick

i love mine i taught myself but i juss wanted to see how other people did it

my ripstik board doesnt move i can't skate on it everytime i step on it the fromt wheel sticks to the board idk what to do please help

I cant really do that wiggle part. so I can't gain speed and go forward. Can you help me in that?

My mom just ordered my sister and I a ripstik and I can't wait to ride it!!!😁😁😁

Hey that and all is okay but how do u get a friend from?

Do I ride wrong. I lead with my right foot and not with my left foot. I also didn't have a friend help me, or a wall, I had a staircase on a pier. So I did everything wrong, I started on a (not) flat surface, with a (nonexistant) friend, and my (right) foot as the guiding foot. Also anyone let me know if you lead with the right as well.

Yoooo RipStiks were so popular back then and now you barely see kids on them

How do you do that sway crap ita so effing hard

I got a ripstik in 2018 and i used to know how to ride it. Right now ive been riding a skateboard alot and i have lost the ability to ride the ripstik :(

Thank you so much this helped me a lot!!!

Currently going on a nostalgia run

I'm 32 and learning to ride with my daughter laughing at me from the garage.

i learned how to ride a ripstick 8 years ago

I know right I have a ripstick and I’m pretty good on it but if you go over even a small mound of sand you will stop

Busted my ass on these things in college one too many times I’m good lmao

i figured how to do this with out the video and the disc by clinging on to a wall then after i got used to it i let go and worked out the rest except for the stopping...

This video came out when i was 2 and im still riding these

Man I wish in heaven I get to time travel

Daughter just opened hers for her 8th birthday,i remember them from waaaay bacj lol will be fun to teach her😊

I just got one for christmas so i'm excited to try it

I’m Offical old I watched this back in 2011🤣

How you slow down like going down a hill

What if I don't want a ripstik

I just started it 2 weeks it is so fun . I haven’t enjoyed anything else so much a

14 years ago?!?!?

So I’m actually gonna learn how to skateboard but I have a Ripstick that I had for several years because I wanted A skateboard but got a rip stick instead so I thought it’s good for practice so I wanna learn how to actually ride it So I’m not a complete beginner on the skateboard

what about it do you like better?

power wings are from the same company

I won a ripstik in the 5th grade. I'm in the 7th grade currently. I just recently (today) started to learn how to ride it.

i havnt been able 2 ride my ripstick yet but im hoping ill get it soon

Damn just before watching this video I was outside rip stoking and I couldn't do it so I kicked it pretty hard, is that going to damage it?

Look at that tasty Porsche 914 😍

It took me 10 minutes to learn

I learned this now I’m gonna go skateboard

The RipStick is dope!

2:58 what are THOSEEEE!

Took me 2 trys. Good video

There all like make sure you learn on a smooth area while I'm here I can only ride on the bumpy road other then that I fall

Thank u so much this helped a lot :)

This helped a little bit

What if ur friends u dad, and u can't reach

How much r they

Does it matter what foot is in front

Who else is here in quarantaine becouse your searching new things to do

it took me aaaagggggggeeeessssss to load this video

omg the same thing happend to me but the rear wheel was damges so i had to fix it

I had to rilly on a tiny hill to get started at first

Well frick i dont have any smooth floor its all rocky

no thats his left fot forward... regular

Recently got one at the Arcade Edit:RipStiks don't work on Spanish guys like me

@2looney29 i got an exboard and i dont do any trick/stunts and it is PERFECT for me, they are quite expensive but it is really stable and i find it much easier to ride - hope it helps!! :)

Wow i learnd so fast

I have the same exact ripstik

This video is amazing by watching it only took me 2hrs

a recomendation is to go with a friend but NEVER with You Best friend

When I first got mine I got it on my second try it’s so easy

Very helpful

Ho is waching this in 2020 because you just got recently a ripstik

its so good tysm

I don’t understand it’s very hard to move the two platforms

So do I

dang they are 60 bucks

i'm getting a new ripstik, which should i get: the air, the dlx, ripster or g??

Am I the only one watching this in 2020 during quarantine because I have nothing better to do

the guy said if you don't have a friend use a wall FOREVER ALONE XD.

I watched this in 2009 right after I got my RipStik and now I'm watching it again in 2020

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!

i just got a ripstick and its 2017 and that vid was taken in 2009, wow ;-;

it sucks that it has a limit on what kind of terrains you can ride it on.
