Longboarding doesn't do it for me.  Cruisers on the other hand are so much more fun.

sean malto must have longboarded, it would explain his wide, saddle rash stance. he certainly wouldn't of have tricks in 'tentacles of destruction'.

Longboarding is fucking fun.
[close]

I agree, but a Zig Zagger is all I have, anyway isn't it funny how most of the people bashing longboards in this thread are the same guys calling out pro skaters for being jocks.
I have a Zig Zagger as well... super fun... it reminds me of the setups I used to roll on in the late 80's/early 90's.
I'm really not getting the longboarding hate though... it's just another version of skating. I mean, a kook is a kook, but the act of skating on one is just fun... it won't replace my need to skate on a regular board, but it has its own appeal.

a long board seems like it be tight if you were on vaction at a massive resort or something like that

i know a few long boarder guys who seem pretty tight but overall i don't get it. probably because i live in Houston and you pretty much have to drive everywhere in this town.

i don't see anything wrong with it but if you can't do an ollie or a kickturn, theres no point.
i'd get something half the size but nothing thats as tall as a snowboard.

Longboarding is fucking fun.

I second that motion.  One time I was in Toronto, I long boarded through traffic.  The city's so flat you can get hella speed.  And you need a bigger softer wheel to do it.  Granted it was at night and no one saw me except for my friends, but it was fun.

I see plenty of guys on "regular" boards who have a awkward push. Look awkward riding. And are constantly just walking around with their board on their hand.
But they are weaing the proper fashions according to Vogue Skateboarding Magazine.

But if all you do is longboard, well, your gay

I couldn't help myself...someone posted a link to this on Silverfish longboarding so I made a username to drop in my 2 cents.

If all you see in "longboarding" is hippies with no balance cruising around on long pieces of wood...well...I've got nothing to say to you.  There is so much more to "longboarding" than that.  For example, how many of you have ever tried doing a 1080 slide at 30mph with your face 5 inches from the ground?  Or tried slalom, boardwalking etc etc?

I understand that there is the stigmatism that longboarders are the pussies of skateboarding...but seriously...have any of you ever hit pavement going 55mph?  I have, and I can tell you that it's just a tad different than falling off a rail.  I don't want to come in here and bag on you guys because street skating is badass in it's own regard.  I can't treflip a 5 stair but I bet few if any of you would know what the hell to do if you were going 50mph on a skateboard and had a 180* hairpin turn coming up.  Stop being so damn concerned with the image of skateboarding and just go ride whatever it is you want.  What the hell do you care if someone gets their kicks by cruising around on a long piece of wood in sandals?

There is so much more to skateboarding than "shortboarding" and "longboarding".  You guys may think it's ridiculous when you see people at college cruising around but I assure you that there lots of people getting a kick out of watching 12 year olds throw a hissy fit after messing up a kick flip.  So stop worrying about whatever other people are doing...it's all skateboarding.

Love what you do and open up to the concept that there is more to skateboarding than you may think.  So yeah, don't be elitists and don't worry about what other people do to enjoy skateboarding.

P.S. I skate the local park everyday and don't wear shell necklaces.  I also race Internationally and am sponsered by 2 different companies.  Hope that blows your stereotypes to pieces.

i get stoked anytime i see anybody skating on campus, longboarders included. anything related to skating stokes me out still and as long as people are having fun, why hate on them?

edit: with that being said, many of these guys look like douche bags and push mongo.
