3. INTR0DUCTION I know how to ride a ripstik. It is very fun and easy once you get the hang of it. It only takes a couple of hours to get good at.

4. First for step one you just put your Ripstik on the ground. Just like it is up there. Make sure that the board is completly laying flat on its side. So you do not fall.

5. Then for step two put your left foot on the front panel like this. Make sure when your foot is on it you have good footing. That would be in the middle and not hanging over the edge.

6. Next for step three is to push off with your right foot once or twice. This moves the board forward. You push off like you would on a skateboard. You can push more depending how fast you want to go.

7. Next just lift right foot on the back panel. Do not forget to make sure that your right foot has good footing on the back panel. Becareful because sometimes your Ripstik will slide away and you won't land.

8. The next step is pretty easy. Just get balance becaue at first the board might tip to one of the sides or someting like that causing you not to keep moving. Then you simply just keep repeating step one and step two and step three until you are sucessfull.

9. Next you could just twist your feet in opposite directions like this shown above. If done correctly you should be moving in a snake like motion.

10. Or you can swivel your right leg back and forth shown in the picture above. This is probably one of the easiest ways. This is how I started.

11. Finally just get some speed. Now you can master the Ripstik.

12. Now you know how to ride a Ripstik. See all it takes is a lot of practice and it is easy. Thank you and I hope you enjoyed.
