How To Mod Your Original RipStik into a RipStik G!

 by Kid Ninja
This instructable will show you how to change your RipStik into a RipStik G!  The only other instructable about this involves cutting, making the rubber part irreplaceable and lowering any resale value it might have.  This shows a fully replaceable way to remove the rubber part.

This is my first instructable so please rate and comment!

wouldnt it work better if you took a copper tube or something and replaced the rubber with the copper...?

That would actually be the best alternative, to take some metal pipe with a diameter just above that of the plastic/metallic tube that the rubber piece rests on. Unfortunately, I didn't have any pipe, and I'm a cheapskate, so I didn't get any.

I was messing with my Ripstik and I did this, but after a while I wanted it back like it was. I advise not to cut it.

 I have to dislike this instructable due to the fact that I posted the same instructable and all you need is a knife

Yes you did make an Instructable on it.  Your's inspired mine.  Mine, in my opinion, is a little better because there's no risk of cutting your RipStik.  It's a small detail, but some people might care about it.
