caution.
Where and How to Ride
• Get familiar with your Rift scooter. Note the deck and the
caster-mounted back wheel make it different from a normal
scooter.
• Note there is no braking device.
• Center your front foot diagonally on the front half of the deck.
Grip handlebars firmly.
• Push off as you would on a regular scooter, then place your
rear foot onto the deck, lightly at first, and ensure foot is
centered. Once you are sure your foot is properly placed,
you can rest weight evenly on both legs. (Use caution before
placing full weight on back of deck; if placed incorrectly you
could fall!)
• Drifting: The inclined caster wheel allows the tail end to drift.
To drift out back end, lean the rear half of the deck in the
direction you would like to drift. Always keep the front wheel
headed in the direction you want to travel, regardless of where
the deck is.
• Stopping: Slow down by dragging your rear foot and step off
the deck when you feel like you are at a safe speed.
• Learn to fall (by rolling if possible) without the product.
• Learn with a friend or parent to help.
