I have a decent amount of experience with traditional skateboarding and want to get into longboarding. I am looking for a symmetrical longboard with kicks, preferably shaped like a standard skateboard.
What do you think would be a good choice? This would be primarily for commute, cruising, and maybe some mellow carving.
Not really looking to do tricks, but after riding my friend’s longboard I immediately missed the kicks for pivoting quickly just getting around.
Update: After looking around some more, I found the Landyachtz Clark which looks a lot like what I’m after: https://landyachtz.com/shop/all/skate/boards/the-clark/
Thank you for all your suggestions, all these boards look awesome! This probably won’t be my last longboard either, so feel free to keep making suggestions.
Plus, someone in the future might find them useful too!
The higher up the board is the less you’ll get from pushing, but pumping might be viable if you have a wide enough stretch of pavement.
