Product Description
The Street Surfing Ripple Cyclone junior street surfboard is like no other ride on the street. It combines the feeling of surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding on 2 wheels. It gives you the ability to do precision 360s, carve downhill, and even ride uphill!

Amazon.com Product Description
Everyone's talking about the Wave street surfer inline action board, which blends the sensations of surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding in a single fun design. The Wave--which runs on two wheels rather than four--gives you the ability to perform precision 360s in small spaces, carve downhill, and even ride uphill, making it a blast for riders of all ages. And, of course, riders can perform all manner of skating tricks, including manuals, board leaps, ollies, acid drops, kick flips, and more. This particular version of the Wave, called the Ripple, is specially designed to meet the needs of younger riders. It's proportionally smaller than the Wave in length and width, letting the rider take a narrower stance to match his or her riding needs, yet still offers the same level of maneuverability and performance.

Like the Wave, the Ripple is distinguished by a spring-oriented torsion bar that controls the flexible front and rear panels, along with a pair of fully rotating 360-degree wheels with ABEC5 bearings. Once on the board, the rider merely twists his or her hips back and forth in an S-shaped motion to propel down the street, with no foot propulsion required. Even better, it takes only a few minutes to learn how to ride the Ripple. Within a few hours, most riders will become proficient. And riders needn't worry about the Ripple's durability, as the platforms are made of a virtually indestructible ABS plastic, while the steel torsion bar never wears down. This "Cyclone" version of the Ripple, which is designed for riders between the ages of 5 and 14, measures 28 by 8 by 5 inches (W x H x D), weighs 8 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.

3 out of 5 stars Ripstik Rip-off???   July 4, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've purchased from Amazon before and never had any problems. The Ripstik I ordered came missing pieces so beware. The ad said it was new but when it was received it was missing an entire caster, axle, and wheel. I've spent a considerable amount of time trying to find repair parts to fix this "new" Ripstik.

I found this product to be well priced and quickly delivered. Our daughter tried her older brother's Wave but found it difficult to maneuver and control so we got her the Junior so they could Wave together. It's great balance and core stabilization exercise, and they have a great time together and with neighborhood friends (don't forget the helmet). Good, clean fun!

My son loves his Ripple. Great intro into this new type of street board. Much different than skateboarding.

Took him about a dozen attempts to get the hang of getting started. Best to practice on a slight downhill grade to gain momentum.

Highly recommended. Seems superior in quality/durability to Ripstik.



5 out of 5 stars Awesome!!   January 18, 2008
I bought this for my son after seeing it online. When we got it, I was a little concerned that it would be hard for him to do. But, after a little practicing, he was able to ride it with no problem. This is much cooler than other skateboards. I think it'll be a lot of fun.


5 out of 5 stars Just what I wanted   January 15, 2008
It was exactly what I ordered. I'm very pleased and happy that it came so quickly.
