Getting Sponsered????

You gotta be at least pretty good to pick up a sponsorship. Post a couple vids, prove yourself, be an encouraging, positive rider, and somebody's bound to see you and consider you. Good luck!

Is anyone coming to NYC?

I'm pretty sure I'm going to go to NYC now. I talked to my dad last night, and he said that he and my mom both want me to go, and they know I wanna go, and there's an opening in our schedule to make…

Casterboarding is a SPORT. Treat it as such.

Profile Information

What RipStik Do You Prefer To Ride?
RipStik "G", RipStik AIR
Favorite Places To Ride:
Parks, parking lots, and neighborhoods is where I normally ride, though I like to go to skateparks. I like to find curbs and railroad ties and stuff to do tricks on.

In other words, wherever I am with my RipStik (which is just about everywhere)! =D
About Me
Hi, my name is Daniel, I'm 15 years old, in 10th grade, homeschooled, and a Christian. I was the first Featured Member on this site, and I like to be on RipCity whenever I can. My interests include casterboarding (of course), snakes, music (mostly Christian rock), paintball, and electronics.

I've been casterboarding for over two years now (started December 23, 2007, and minutes later broke my arm) and have owned four casterboards. I ride my boards (I currently have 2) whenever I can. I am not sponsored, but hope to someday get someone's attention.

I can ride and perform tricks in 'Goofy' and 'Regular', better in 'Goofy'. The tricks I'm working on right now are the kickflip, nollie 360 shuvit, and stalls. Every time I'm out casterboarding I try out and land something new, and I always find some skill to work on.

I like to post vids and pics often, if I have any real good ones.

Me and three other casterboarders, one of whom (Chad Quinlan) is on CA and RipCity too, form the Christian Caster Crew, or CCC. Check out our team blog at christiancastercrew.blogspot.com.

My cousin is learning how to casterboard, but he stopped because he can't ride uphill yet. I told him it takes a while, but he won't listen.

Yep, it's duct tape! My helmet strap broke, so I pulled out the roll of duct tape and made a custom one! It still fits fine.

Look guys, quit this, just be done with it. Potatoes, you were just being low, nasty and racist for no reason, and what makes it worse is that you make light of it. Everyone else, cussing like gangsters and calling each other fags doesn't help much,…

Kickflip Landing

Hey guys, I know I sound like a broken record asking for kickflip help, but I just need to know the final step. I can flip whenever I attempt now, so I have that part down pat. I just need to learn to land now, but that seems like the hardest part. I either can't seem to pull my front leg back in fast enough to land, or I instinctively miss the board to land safe, unfortunately not accomplishing anything. I land my back foot almost every time, but my front foot just ends up landing on the ground… Continue

RipStik AIR or RipStik Classic?

Hey, everybody, I have a problem. I need a new RipStik, as my 'G' is rather beat up: the back is nearly worn completely off from excessive scraping on tricks, it's noisy and rattly, etc. I need a new RipStik. I have two choices really, maybe three: blue RipStik AIR, blue RipStik Classic, or another black RipStik 'G'. I'll list my pros and cons I've figured out so far:

RipStik AIR, Pros:
+One board design
+Spring-loaded casters
+light design, making it easier for air tricks
Cons:
-Grip tape tear… Continue

RipStik AIR Deck Plates

I saw a movie earlier that had a kid riding a RipStik AIR, and he had the camera and was pointing it at the RipStik he was riding, and it appeared that the rear deck plate tape was torn or something. Are the RipStik AIR deck plates just colored tape, and do they tear with heavy riding? I'm thinking about getting one, so just making sure.

Tricks

I've been RipStiking for almost two years now, but I gave myself six months after starting to thoroughly learn to ride. I then started with the manual, and nowadays I can do loooong manuals, multiple board leaps in succession, acid drop (somewhat, I haven't really been to any skateparks), something I call the 360 switchover (you do a nose manual, turn around, do a manual, and turn around again in the same direction, and you end up going the same way you started out), and a turn on a manual/nose… Continue
