AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO PARENTS
GENERAL WARNING
This manual contains important safety information. For your child’s safety, it is your responsibility to review this information with your child and make sure
that your child understands all warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics. We recommend that you periodically review and reinforce the information
in this manual with younger riders and that you are required to inspect and maintain your child’s caster board to insure their safety.
Caster board riding can be a hazardous activity. Caster boards can, and
are intended to move and it is therefore possible to get into dangerous
situations and/or lose control and/or fall off. If such things occur you can be
seriously injured or die.
LIKE ANY OTHER MOVING PRODUCT, USING A CASTER BOARD CAN BE
A DANGEROUS ACTIVITY AND MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH EVEN
WHEN USED WITH PROPER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. USE AT YOUR OWN
RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
• Always wear proper protective equipment. Elbow and kneepads, long
sleeve shirt, gloves, long pants, shoes, and elbow and kneepads are
recommended. Wear athletic shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles).
Don’t ride barefoot or in sandals. Keep shoelaces out of the way of
casters and wheels.
• Use the caster board only on smooth, dry, level ground without loose
debris, such as rocks or gravel.
• Never use the caster board at dusk or night or in wet or icy conditions.
• Avoid water, speed bumps, sand, gravel and anything else that could
cause your wheels to stop. When in doubt, avoid the bumps.
• Do not exceed 220 lb (100 kg) total weight on the RipStik
®
, RipStik
DLX and RipStik G caster boards. Do not exceed 175 lb (79 kg) total
weight on the RipStik Ripster, RipStik DLX Mini and RipStik Ripster
Air caster board.
• Do not allow children under age eight (8) to use the caster board.
Children under age ten (10) should ride with adult supervision at all times.
• Never ride in traffic and watch your surroundings for pedestrians, bikes,
skateboard and scooter riders. Use the caster board in areas free from
fixed or moving hazards, such as poles, hydrants, parked automobiles
and traffic.
• Risk of injury increases as degree of trick difficulty increases. Rider
assumes all risk associated with trick riding activities. Be careful and
know your limitations.
• This product was manufactured for performance and durability but it is
not impervious to damage. Trick riding can over time stress or damage
any product, including the RipStik, and the rider assumes all risks
associated with high-stress activity.
FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THESE WARNINGS
FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR OWN
RISK AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE
OPERATION. USE CAUTION.
WARNING: ALWAYS INSPECT THE RIPSTIK PRIOR TO RIDING.
Properly inspecting and maintaining your caster board can reduce the risk
of injury. Always inspect your caster board before riding and regularly
maintain it.
WARNING: REGARDING USE OF NON-RAZOR PRODUCTS WITH
YOUR RIPSTIK CASTER BOARD. Your caster board has been built to our
design specifications. All the original equipment supplied at the time of
sale were selected on the basis of their compatibility with the frame,
casters and all other parts. Certain after-market products may or may
not be compatible with your RipStik caster board. Consult your retailer or
contact us prior to modifying or replacing any component with a non-factory
specified product.
WARNING: CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING CASTER BOARD
USE. Check local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use
your RipStik caster board legally. In many states and local areas caster
board riders may be required BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check local laws
and regulations regarding laws governing helmet use and caster board
operation in your area.
WARNING: Aggressive and other stunt-type riding reduce your
ability to maneuver and control your caster board. Take the necessary
precautions, such as wearing appropriate protective gear and practice in a
safe area for stunt riding and free from obstructions.
WARNING: You will see people on TV and videos or maybe even
people you know doing tricks or stunts on a caster board. These are people
who have been practicing a long time and who accept the risks of trick
riding activity. Do not assume that you can attempt to do the same tricks
without great risk.
