Bought the extreme coaster for my son for Christmas. He is 4 and was intimidated for most of Christmas morning. He rode for quite a while after that first ride. He loves this thing. I went against the instructions and rode it myself. The weight limit says 80 pounds. I wouldn't walk the steps at my weight (125) but I did jump on at the top and rode a few times. This thing goes far and fast. We are using it indoors and the ride goes from one end of the basement to the other. We had to use a sleeping bag for the kids to crash in to. Super fun and recommend.
