Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The WhipTide Dual Deck Carve Board features the newest, hottest technology in street boarding. Its unique design and engineering feature dual decks and four pro-style 80mm inline wheels for maximum control and stability. It also offers a patented flex neck design and lightweight, 360-degree pivoting aluminum trucks, which allows you to create a snowboard-like carving motion, so you can make sharper, smoother turns. Just carve and go like you are on a real snowboard or surfboard riding the wave.

Riding the Whiptide is like a combination of surfing, snowboarding, and skating, although it's more flexible than a longboard and more durable than other street surfboards. The Whiptide is a dual deck board that has four super high quality, 80mm in-line wheels with high performance ABEC 5 bearings and lightweight and inclined 360-degree pivoting aluminum trucks. The decks are larger than the typical street surfboard, giving you better stability, and are made from practically indestructible ABS plastic. The grip tape gives you perfect hold, plus the spiked traction zones give you great foot control.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you are choosing between a Ripstick, Wave or Whiptide.., March 19, 2008

This review is from: WhipTide Dual Deck Caster Carve Board (Multiple Colors) (Sports)

this is the board to buy if you value the following:

Ease of learning (better balancing, ease to kick off and get started)

Smoother ride - extra wheels gives it a smoother feel to the surface, especially on a blacktop surface - think like inline skates...

Easier to propel (use of your body motion) as a result of having more flaxibility in the torso part of the board and having 2 additional caster wheels

Easier ability to turn - flexible torso between the boards permits a bend vs. the fixed torsos from the other boards

It looks more difficult but is easier, goes faster and is more comfortable to ride. I am 44 and use this while my son rides a Wave. he prefers that board...I think because the other kids have those and he likes the color! At my age I go for the better product!

In our famiy, we own several traditional skateboards, a Flowboard and two Wave StreetSurfing boards. We just bought the WhipTide and overall it is the best of the bunch. Its four in-line wheels give it a smoother and more stable ride than the Wave, though the Wave is a bit more responsive and slightly better for tight 360's and jumps. The Whiptide is better going uphill and faster over moast types of surfaces. It's our preferred board for long rides.

The Whiptide is an unbelievable piece of machinery that can't go unnoticed! I can't ride more than two feet without someone stopping me to ask to try it out. I have a ripstick as well, but after purchasing this dual deck ultimate flex board I feel like just giving away my ripstick! I was an avid gym goer before I bought the whiptide but now I find myself getting an amazing cardio work out after just an hour on this board. And it's such a blast just to whip up and down the street. Going to class has actually become something I sort of look forward to... sort of! I can't explain enough how much I love this board and all it has to offer!

If you're considering one... stop... just get it, you wont regret it!!
