{{Quote|Get my good side, fellas.|Ripslinger|Planes}}[[File:Meet Ripslinger - Disney's Planes|thumb|right|220px|Meet Ripslinger]]'''Ripslinger''' is the main antagonist of [[Planes]]. He is a black and green champion racer, who is a bully of the [[Wings Around the Globe (racing competition)|Wings Around the Globe]] racing circuit. Rude and obnoxious, he and [[Dusty Crophopper|Dusty]] are serious competitors, and Ripslinger will do anything to humiliate him.

Ripslinger hates Dusty Crophopper, a crop-dusting plane who wants to compete in the race but is seriously afraid of heights, out of the fact that he thinks that crop dusters are not meant to race. Because of this, Ripslinger along with Ned and Zed plot to disqualify Dusty by cheating in every race. Dusty loses his second race in Germany to save a British plane named [[Bulldog]] from suffering from an oil leak, much to Ripslinger's delight. But as Dusty begins to win more and more races during the competition and falling in love with an [[India]]n plane named [[Ishani]], Ripslinger becomes more and more furious with the crop duster. So as a result during a race over the [[Pacific Ocean]], Ripslinger orders Ned and Zed to sabotage Dusty by knocking off his navigation antenna in order to make him lose communication from the other racers and therefore making him get lost. After he is given spare parts from the other racers including Bulldog, Ishani and [[El Chupacabra]] due to crashing into the ocean during a storm, Ripslinger and his henchplanes then try to attack both Dusty and Skipper on the way to the finish line of the final race, and once he thinks that he had finally gotten rid of Dusty once and for all, Ripslinger strikes a pose in front of the audience only for Dusty to overtake him and win the race without the villain noticing. But by the time Ripslinger knew what was going on he forgets about where he is going, he ends up crashing into some portable toilets and landing in a pile of sludge. Because of this, Ripslinger's arrogance and cruel behavior ultimately led to his downfall, and was called "Ripstinker" by [[Roper]].

In the [[Planes: The Video Game|video game]], he tries to get Dusty banned from the WATG rally by causing destruction in [[Propwash Junction]], painting graffiti of Dusty on the [[Great Tread of China|Great Wall of China]] in a Dusty disguise, as well as attempting to have the other racers turn against Dusty by spraying paint on them. He even causes trouble for Ishani by ruining her favorite holiday the "Festival of Colors", spiking her fuel with his own illegal mixture, and having the Diwali racing festival sabotaged with help from his minions. When his plans to ruin Dusty failed, he destroyed an entire course for the WATG Rally, though it was not left unnoticed due to cameras set up around the course. He was later suspended by two Race Official pitties for his actions until further notice. What became of him after that was unknown. Whether Ripslinger was free to race in the WATG Rally again or not is most likely still pending.

*Ripslinger is one of the many [[w:c:disney:Disney Villains|Disney Villains]] to be rude, and have a lot of pride.
