I'm new to skate/longboarding and was thinking of getting something cheap-ish to cruiese around on. Would anyone have any recommendations? I was hoping to get something around $50-75 and around 30" or so.
Also, any opinion on this Quest Cruiser I found on amazon? It seems like something I might like. Thanks a bunch!
Hey guys, I am looking for a cruiser board. I have minimal experience with skateboarding (I can ride them, but can't really do tricks). I was mostly interested in using a skateboard as a transportation tool (can't stand riding on my old skateboard in surfaces that are not flat) and thought of getting a cruiser.
I am pretty tall (6'3) so I am not looking for a small board. I searched amazon and thought about buying this 'quest' board
Could anyone recommend this one for a newbie? It's a 34 inch long board. will it fit me well?
(already got some bad comments on the quest board. but I would like to hear more opinions / alternative boards in the $60 range if possible
I was riding this before the Shrike. I've noticed the board is a lot smoother to ride, I can go faster for longer off of one push, and I can actually manage pumping this board to maintain speed. The added length and concave also makes me feel more stable.
Board Question: I currently ride this Quest board that I got for $50.
I mainly use it for commuting around my neighborhood in the street and sometimes sidewalk. (never really over 1.5mi) I am also trying to teach myself some basic tricks.
Can I get some board recs? I was looking at Landyachtz dinghy, would that be a good choice for what I want? I like the price point of the Dinghy, and ideally would like to stay under $150, but I can go up to $200.
I just got into longboarding a few weeks ago, my girlfriend tried to get me into pennyboarding but my feet are too damn big, so she bought me this board as a gift and I immediately fell in love with riding. It's a cheap board and I expected it to ride like a cheap board, but I didn't expect to outgrow it quite this fast.
I lose so much speed so fast and rocky/uneven pavement is a nuisance on extended rides. I know I can correct both of those by getting new bearings and wheels, but I'm honestly not sure where to start when it comes to shopping for them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
As for just getting a new board - I actually really love the size of the board - it's small enough that I'd be perfectly okay riding it around my college campus every day and taking into class with me.
Don't own a longboard, Don't know much details about them. but I found this...
Is this a good board for someone who is just looking for something to get around campus on?

anything else I should know about it?
Hey everyone! I am looking at getting a long board for tooling around my area and maybe skating to work (roughly a mile). Now I don't live in the city so it will mainly be a mix of sidewalk and road boarding.
I have been skating normal boards for almost 10 years and am wanting something I can cruise along better with.
Any recommendations on a setup? Saw this link earlier and i liked the price point: http://www.amazon.com/Quest-Rorshack-Longboard-Skateboard-34-Inch/dp/B008EZNXHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1440912275&sr=8-1&keywords=quest+rorshack+bamboo+longboard+skateboard+34-inch&pebp=1440912288190&perid=0PBQXWHPXYKFT9JSVZ20
Note: I am not looking to get into downhill or anything like that, this is mainly for cruising around my area and just for fun joy-rides.
Thanks much for the help!
