Kids Who Rip is a DVD series that features young kids participating in extreme sports. Founded by Rod Parmenter in the 1990s, the films follow almost every non-mainstream action sport including skateboarding, snowboarding, motocross, BMX, unicycling and wakeboarding.[1]
The video series has an alumni list that now includes X-Games Winners and Olympic Gold Medalists, including Shaun White, Shane Bonifay and Parks Bonifay.[2] The all kids band Smoosh has had tracks featured in a recent KWR release.[3]
[edit] Online
In addition to the DVDs, Kids Who Rip is also a social network for kids. The site allows kids to upload photos, videos and music to their profiles. Many of the highly rated kids go on to appear in the DVD series.
