This (in my opinion) has go to be the coolest ride on toy ever.
Merchant Info: Razor reinvents the classic three-wheeler of the 1970s with the Rip Rider 360, which replaces the large back two wheels with dual inclined caster wheels. The Razor Rip-Rider 360 Drifting Ride-On has been named a top toy for 2009 by both Parents and Parenting magazines. The casters allow resistance-free drifting and spinning action, and the freewheel system invites incredible coasting speeds. And the super-cool, steel framed design will make on-lookers dizzy as you spin-out. Designed for riders ages five and older, the Rip Rider will support up to 160 pounds and measures 38 by 24 by 24 inches. Some assembly is required.
