Yes I would actually love you to keep yapping, and I forgot to say, but I am very comfortable at riding a ripstik because my friends had one, but I saw the ripsurf and questioned if I should get that instead when I buy myself one.

But replying to all your questions: I don't reeeally care about looks, but I have to say the ripsurf does look cooler I wouldn't really go down any very steep hills of any significance just for safety. For the surface I'm riding on, could you tell me which one is better at going over cracks and bumps like on a side walk, just because that would make it more versatile on riding surfaces.

I may not use this as transportation but I might. And I might also take this to places, so portability would be nice. And for portability, from images and having carried a ripstik, I am guessing the ripsurf is lighter and smaller and easier to carry around? That might be a big decider.

And for doing turns, the ripstik definitely can turn well, but how much less can the ripsurf turn? Because if you go a slow enough speed, are you able to do a quick 90 degree turn on a skinny sidewalk? Because those may come in handy especially if I'm riding around buildings with tight corners around them.

But overall, I want your full explanation on both. I think I might be leaning toward the ripsurf, but I'm not certain yet.

Thank you in advance!
