Ripstik is the newest craze at our house!

The latest craze in our town is the Ripstik. If you aren't familiar with one, it is like a skateboard, however it only has 2 wheels that toggle, and to ride it you must first learn to balance on it, and then twist your lower body back and forth to create a wave motion to keep the board moving. Brandon took a "wave boarding" class last week at school, so of course, the boys decided they wanted to all chip in to buy this latest "hot item". Matt and I spent quite some time today trying to learn to ride it, but you will see, there is no video of us! Not a pretty sight!

You can find out more information about them at http://www.ripstikusa.com/, then click on the "how to ride" link.
