Well, on the video it looked easy - dropping in on a ripstick, that is. So I gave it a try. The best thing was the strange looks from the kids and others in the skatepark. You don't see many ripsticks at Five Dock, let alone many dropping in.
To be fair, I tried to drop in off a very small ramp, but a ramp none the less. Anyway, after that I took it in the shell. I'll try and get a photo - it's a funny little bowl type thing - it was a surreal feeling heading off into this thing on a ripstick and, most amazingly, I almost made it back out again and only fell on my arse a few times.
I haven't bought one yet, but you never know...
