Building on the success of the original Wave street surfing casterboard, the Whiplash Wave scooter continues to combine the natural fluidity of surfing with the maneuverability of snowboarding and skating. Offering a revolutionary new way to ride, the Whiplash Wave Scooter's flexing deck and handlebar fuse together to provide riders with a cool, side to side, whip-like ride. And you can self-propel the scooter so that your feet never touch the ground or ride it like a traditional scooter. The Whiplash Wave Scooter only takes a few minutes to learn, and after a few hours most riders become proficient.

The scooter handle adds an extra dimension to the tricks you can perform with the Whiplash Wave.

The handle folds for easy storage.

The platform is made of a virtually indestructible yet nicely lightweight ABS plastic, and it features a steel torsion bar that controls the flexible front and rear panels and never wears down. Other hardware features a rear caster wheel with ABEC 7 bearings and an extra long handle folds for easy travel and storage.

How to Ride the Whiplash

1. Place the Whiplash on a slight downward slope.

   Place foot in the center of the back platform and position the scooter so that it is level with the ground.

2. Push with your front foot and lean your weight forward.

   Look straight ahead. Straighten your body and bend your knees slightly.

3. Immediately after pushing off, start the twisting motion.

   To achieve an "S" shape, move your shoulders and your hips back and forth in opposing directions. Swing your back foot repeatedly left to right and self propel your Whiplash Scooter without ever putting your foot on the ground.

My nine year old son received the Whiplash Scooter for his birthday. This is his second scooter. He loves this one because he can do so much more with it. He rides it up and down the sidewalk without ever touching the ground and he does these really cool turns he couldn't do on his other scooter. It is really well made too.

We gave this to our son for his 7th birthday. He absolutely loves it. It was simple to assemble right out of the box. He can't get enough of it and his friends are jealous!! It was a great find.

OMG!!! Imagine my surprise when I went in to write my "disappointed" review of this product and I see not one but NINE other reviews stating exactly the same thing that I want to write about! As the other reviewers, my husband and I first opened this product late Christmas Eve in anticipation that it would be a quick assembly. We had no bolts, no instructions, no DVD and ours, too, looked as if it had been ridden before. The box looked to have been opened from the bottom and taped back. Needless to say, we were extremely ticked off. I order frequently from Amazon.com and always have great experiences, so I was pretty disappointed...so much more since it was Christmas Eve and no stores were open! Luckily my husband was able to figure something out using R/C nuts and bolts.

Since my husband was able to rig something together, my son was not disappointed Christmas morning. The scooter itself is great and my son loves it! Yet, I am still aggravated and will now think twice before ordering from Amazon.com.
