| Customer Review | By Bitoy (Manila, Philippines) February 11, 2010 Perfect For Beginners! This is our family's first Ripstik and all I can say is "wow". My eleven year old daughter asked me to get her this. I'm a 40 year old father and after a few hours, I'm hooked! The following week I bought myself a Ripstik-G (which I believe is similar to the original) and that's how I got to compare them. And oh, never try anything for the first time without ample protection. Wrist pads in particular. You'll find out why when you fall. And believe me, you don't want to. -The Ripstik Air is a tad shorter than the Risptik G. If you have a wide stance, go for G. -Air is also lighter than G, which makes it great for people who can do jumps which I can't... yet. G stands for "grind" which I don't do... yet. And yes it's heavier than Air which makes it more stable in my opinion. -Air has that sandpaper feel on the deck which gives a real good grip for almost any type of shoes and makes it safer especially for kids. I tried riding the G wearing cowboy boots and let me tell you, it's not a good idea. No, I didn't fall but it made me slow and fashionably horrible. -Air has "spring-loaded" wheels; they snap back to the center. This, in my opinion, lessens the effort of carving. A little tug or snap translates into a few feet! It's less frustrating for beginners. The drawback though is the loss of control. Since you have a tendency to go real fast real quick, turns are quite scary to do! The G is all about control. I scatter little obstacles like books, chairs, water bottles and the like in our living room and I'd be "snaking" around them real slow. It's like surfing in a pond! I can stay on deck for thirty minutes and it's beautiful! So that's what I think. If you go for speed, get Air; for control, get the G (or the original). Either way you'll have an experience like you never had before. Enjoy! |
