From a snowboarder....I've had this (R1X) puppy for about a year. It's a great all around board due to its size and abilities. It is not so long that you cannot take it anywhere. It is not heavy and it has those convenient deck handles to carry it. Shreadlights let you rock (and see..... and have others see you, too) at night. Wheels are nice and soft for going over all types of terrain and flexible for carving. It's nice to have a tail if you need to get over a larger type crack. Battery lasts a loooong time and I would not want to go any faster than its top speed unless I wanted to dress my body in pads and protective equipment. It's packs plenty of power for speed and getting up inclines 15-20% without issue. I love this thing especially during this lame COVID pandemic time. It's great to roll around the neighborhood.
This board is fast and so much fun. I love it and am so happy that I got one... honestly, hopping on it and cruising around brings me so much joy. Get one and experience all the uber fun it will bring your soul... and, wear a helmet. 😉
I absolutely love the Riptide R1 and cant believe I was able to buy such a high quality product for the price I bought it at. It has a great battery life that allows me to skate all day and maintain a high speed. The power behind this board is incredible, it never struggles to reach high speeds even while I'm riding it at 220 lbs. I'm very happy with my decision to buy from this company!
I ordered this skateboard during the week of Black Friday. My order was delayed because of so many other purchasers, but riptides customer service is amazing and more than accomidating and they took care of all my needs and worries. They made sure my board was delivered before Christmas. Very satisfied with my purchase. Board is fast and rides so smooth.
It’s the best electric skateboard out in the market so far without a doubt !
I was very skeptical at first and was afraid that the board wouldn’t be worth the purchase, but after buying it and charging it up, it was perfect for the price. Goes a bit faster than what I thought and gets the job done. Worth the $400 and love riding it around!
This isn't my first Riptide. I'm moved the 90mm ABEC11's over and it's even better than the first. If it weren't easy to put the ABEC11's on it, I would hold back a star. IMHO it needs the ABEC's to ride smooth enough for my taste; but I'm very picky in that regard.
My grandson receive his Riptide for Christmas and lives in Minn. so he hasn’t used it yet. He is very anxious for Spring to arrive so ask me after April, but s
I’m absolutely in love with this convenient and fun way of motor transportation. The design and feel of the board is of high quality from deck to wheels while in a light and portable form factor. I’m in love with my purchase and can’t wait for more accessories and support from the Ripe Riptide Team!
It’s fast, turns tight and brakes well. Had to get used to a slightly different stance (more forward leaning) because it’s a short board, but after that brief learning curve it was 100% fun!
Fantastic skateboard. Just love skating and watching people flip out on the board. I am very satisfied. Solid, good looking and best of all, fast.
Amazing board. My wife loves it. Compact yet still sporty. We ride boards every day now. It's an easier choice to get us outdoors
I skated a little bit when I was a kid. I spent an hour or so in beginner mode and was able to be in expert mode full-time shortly there after. It has turned my commute – something I used to hate – into something I now love.
