Amazon.com Product Description
Everyone's talking about the Wave street surfer inline action board, which blends the sensations of surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding in a single fun design. The Wave--which runs on two wheels rather than four--gives you the ability to perform precision 360s in small spaces, carve downhill, and even ride uphill, making it a blast for riders of all ages. And, of course, riders can perform all manner of skating tricks, including manuals, board leaps, ollies, acid drops, kick flips, and more. The Wave is distinguished by a spring-oriented torsion bar that controls the flexible front and rear panels, along with a pair of fully rotating 360-degree wheels with ABEC-5 bearings. Once on the board, the rider merely twists his or her hips back and forth in an S-shaped motion to propel down the street, with no foot propulsion required. Even better, it takes only a few minutes to learn how to ride the Wave. Within a few hours, most riders will become proficient. Riders needn't worry about the Wave's durability, as the platforms are made of a virtually indestructible ABS plastic, while the steel torsion bar never wears down. In addition, the 77mm wheels were selected based on a tenuous balance of durability and traction. The Wave measures 35 by 9 by 5 inches (W x H x D), weighs 10 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty.

The Wave is also becoming popular with skaters who like the board's ability to do tricks, sharp turns, 360s, and the fact that the rider s feet never touch the ground. The board is propelled using core movements of the body, making for an excellent workout on top of being just plain fun.

Awesome fun! January 8, 2009
Kimberly E. Howard (Hebron, Maryland USA)
My 15 year old can't get enough of this board! He has turned the entire neighborhood into wave board fanatics! The whole group has a blast trying to out maneuver one another! There is only on drawback to this product, the rear wheels wear out rather quickly.I did however, order an extra set when I placed my original order for this board. My son stated, "Mom, this board gives me one heck of a workout". What more can I say, money well spent!
 A Kid Favorite January 6, 2009
W. Basso
Sturdy, stylish, and loads of fun. To an adult, it looks impossible to ride, but it doesn't take a determined kid very long to learn and have fun. Promotes coordination and balance. A cool way to navigate for pre-teens and teens. Safety is a concern- address that with your kid, and you will both be happy.
BUY THIS!!!!! IT'S THE BEST TOY EVER!!!!!! December 28, 2008
I got my Hi-Tide for Christmas. It is awesome!!! I got really upsessed with it by my friends and wanted it for so long!! Now I got it for Christmas and I ride it multiple times a day! I just have to say 3 words:
GET A HI-TIDE!
The Skate Board For A Blader December 12, 2008
God (Florida)
TOTALLY AWESOME! The wave carves, slides, moves sideways, and even does 360 Degree turns! The maneuverability on this thing is amazing! It can easily change direction, almost literally on a dime!
I've had this for about a month, and it is an awesome product. I've found it to be fun no matter where you use it, though going uphill is especially tiring. I like the way it carves down hills, and it manages to pick up speed well. In terms of color, I'd recommend this black one, as it is uncommon, and other people with wave will be awed by the pitch black. It's also just plain cool!
The only problem I have, is like may other users, The wheels run out very fast. If you do not plan to buy extra wheels, do not buy this! The back wheel runs out much faster than the front, which leaves the ride feeling lopsided, leaning backward. The wheel doesn't run totally out, it just grinds flat, and becomes slippery and hard to turn on. I have had the same wheels for about a month, and it works fine, except for the few problems mentioned above.
Over all, Great product, But be ready to buy extra wheels.

Your 9-13 year old son will love this product. It is easy to learn and fun to ride. Good exercize and my kids have never gotten hurt using it. It seems like the design makes it much safer than a skateboard.
