Longboarding

Teach me and I will give you my conclusion :slight_smile:

Is it remotely like snowboarding? (dont know if you snowboard or not, just throwing the question out there)

I dont mind teaching ya. Its a blast! I do not snowbard often so its hard for me to say. Cruising on a regular skateboard is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy more work and much less comfortable.

Awesome! Yeah I figure this would be easier but idk by how much.

Well it is that time of year. I love a nice evening cruising around the park drinking some beers. YES!

So my girlfriend got me a longboard and we were messing around on it today. Wow, it’s a lot more fun than I imagined! and very easy to just cruise around :slight_smile: I just need to get the hang of it. How do you stop though? The kid she bought it from - who is a mutual friend - said to just jump off or go into the grass lol…

i usually stomp my kick foot on the ground to slow down

Im going to have to give that an X2. Newman very soon i’ll be bothering you a LOT on what to get.

Newman and I cruised about 12 miles from my house to my moms the other day where my gf met me and gave me a ride home. He met up with GV and they skated back.

Also I stop by just dragging foot or if need be you just jump off/grass.

Yup 13.6 miles of hell on your board FGGT!

I felt fine shortly after. My board is sweet for cruising but Newman likes to go at a retarded fast pace.

It is deff not the boards fault.

I’m bummed that it’s supposed to rain all weekend

thach what area are you in? Are you more interested in cruising or raging on some hills? I like to do a little of both but I mostly just cruise now(see: old).

I’ll be buying one some time between now and may 26th ish, I want it to cruise around Cali with

I’m in buffalo about 5-10 min from the galleria mall. today was the first time I’ve ever been on a longboard so I’ll stick to cruising for now haha.

Yeah we deff hauled ass the whole way.

Yeah I’m moving into an apt near there in july so I’ll def be around a lot
