Whiplash is an awesome scooter with a twist. I received one to review and all of the photos of me are embarrassing. I’ve been trying to work on riding it without the kids laughing at me. It is a whole lot of fun but I’m getting old. My balance isn’t as good as it used to be but it is encouraging to the kids to see their mommy playing and having fun. We’ve been spending more time outside since I’ve been working on this review. I would let them ride it but they are under 5.
Product Description:
The folding handle provides for easy travel and storage. Whiplash™ has a traditional 97 mm front wheel while the rear caster wheel that zips along on ABEC 7 bearings.
- Rear caster wheel with ABEC 7 bearings
- Extra long handle that folds for easy travel & storage
- Wave Torsion Self propelling technology
- Extra wide skate inspired flexing deck
- Reinforced & lightweight design
Assembly was quite easy. The handlebars are adjustable and they just snap in. To adjust them, you just push the knobs in and then slide it up to the next set of knob wholes and then it’s longer.
The handles on the handlebars can fold down, just by pushing the knobs in and poping them out. This makes for easy storage.
The skateboard part of the scooter easily screws onto the handle piece and all pieces are included. You don’t even need a screwdriver. When I didn’t have children crawling all over me the assembly took less than five minutes. Trying to do it with kids all over me, was next to impossible.
So using it like a scooter is hard, it’s much easier to put both feet on it and move your weight back and fourth, but like I said, I’m getting old and my balance has been a little tricky. I mean, I sometimes miss a stair taking the stairs every day.
