Product Description
The revolutionary Whiplash scooter from Street Surfing® is part scooter, part wave board. It's designed with a self-propulsion system; the extra-wide flexing deck is fused with the handlebar to create a cool side-to-side, whip-like ride.
Amazon.com Product Description
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
- 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. - Push with your front foot and lean your weight forward.
Look straight ahead. Straighten your body and bend your knees slightly. - 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.
Best new scooter!!! March 16, 2010

Riding the whiplash is the most fun I have ever had on a scooter. Once you get the hang of it you can make your scooter carve down the streets like you were riding a wave in the ocean. I have never before tried something so new and innovative. This is great for anybody who loves to try new and cool things. The whiplash is the most fun I have ever had on two wheels!!!

We bought this as a birthday gift for our daughter. The item arrived as promised, and we left it in the box, etc., until she unwrapped it. Upon opening, we found the item marred from use, plus the book and the hardware were missing. We tried to find a replacement locally with no luck. Should have just done the Amazon return! The return was super slick! Easy to do, and the new item was sent next day air. As I said, should have just done that the first day!
Kudos to Amazon for GREAT customer service. Ughhhh to them for having not checked a return as being complete for reselling. But back to five stars for how QUICK and EASY they made the exchange!
Great Fun June 25, 2010
