What Constitutes a Complete Longboard?

A complete longboard refers to a fully assembled longboard skateboard. It encompasses a deck, trucks, wheels, bearings, and grip tape – all curated for optimal performance and balance by professionals. There is no need to assemble the longboard yourself. Simply select a complete longboard that fuels your passion, unbox it, and you are ready to go.

Reasons to Opt for a Complete Longboard

Whether you are acquiring a starter longboard or advancing for a particular style, you will find a complete longboard that suits your demands.

You can later enhance or refine your longboard by adding wheels, trucks, riser pads, and other components of your preference – enabling you to modify the longboard as your skill enhances and your tastes shift.

What Varieties of Longboards Are Available?

Our collection includes a wide array of longboards catering to every discipline. Below is an overview of the most prevalent types of longboards:

Longboards for Cruising and Carving

If achieving a surf-style sensation on flat terrain or mild inclines intrigues you, then cruising and carving longboards are ideal. These boards excel for commuting, boardwalk outings, or leisurely rides around the neighbourhood. With responsive trucks and flexible decks, they provide smooth, flowing turns.

Longboards for Freeriding

Freeride longboards are crafted for sliding, switch gliding, and innovative hill-based descents. They are designed for balance and control at moderate to fast speeds. If you desire a longboard that facilitates learning slides and combining them with downhill techniques, freeride offers an exciting mid-point.

Longboards for Downhill

Downhill longboards embody speed and precision. These boards are built for stability and control at elevated speeds. Featuring rigid decks, low centres of gravity, and grip-focused configurations, they cater to those seeking adrenaline.

Longboards for Dancing

Dancing longboards are tailored for a fusion of footwork, balance, and graceful motion. These boards possess lengthy decks that offer ample space for cross-steps, spins, and manuals. Longboard dancing is creative, expressive, and oriented more towards rhythm than speed. It is an exceptional choice for enthusiasts of technical manoeuvres seeking a platform to craft their personal style.

Longboards for Freestyle

Freestyle longboards are engineered for tricks, flips, and overall versatility. They usually feature symmetrical designs with kicktails on both ends – allowing bi-directional movement conducive to mingling technical tricks with conventional longboarding.

Are Longboards Suitable for Beginners?

Longboards are certainly a beginner-friendly gateway into skateboarding. Their larger decks and softer wheels offer enhanced stability and smoother control compared to shorter skateboards, simplifying the process of gaining balance and confidence on a wheeled board. If you are just starting, a longboard is an excellent option for building assurance.

Longboards are less manoeuvrable compared to trick-centric skateboards. A symmetrical popsicle-shaped skateboard is advisable if your interest predominantly lies in technical tricks, vert skating, or street skating. If cruising is your priority but you seek more agility than a longboard offers, consider exploring cruiser skateboards.

Which Longboard Is Ideal for Beginners?

The ideal starter longboard should feel stable, demonstrate ease in turning, and manage uneven surfaces effortlessly. Many longboards crafted for cruising are perfect for delivering these attributes. There is no necessity for an advanced longboard as a beginner – a well-balanced, economical longboard will meet your needs from the start, allowing for parts upgrades as you progress.

We stock a vast array of beginner-friendly complete longboards. Each setup is thoughtfully chosen to instil initial confidence and control.

Are Longboards Appropriate for Children?

Indeed, longboards can very well suit children – particularly those more inclined to cruise rather than master tricks on a conventional skateboard. Choosing a model specifically designed for children can simplify the process.

When purchasing a longboard for a child or young newcomer, size and stability are vital considerations. Aim for a deck length between 28 and 36 inches, providing a perfect balance of manoeuvrability for smaller skaters.

The Benefits of Acquiring a Longboard for a Child

Longboards generally present an easier control option for children. Their expansive decks and extended wheelbases facilitate balancing. The large, soft wheels absorb vibrations and smoothly traverse small obstacles – like pebbles or pavement fissures – minimising the risk of abrupt falls.

Cruiser skateboards also present a viable option for kids inclined towards cruising rather than mastering technical tricks. These boards often share the smooth, stable rolling nature of longboards but in a more compact format. A cruiser can serve as an excellent compromise for kids with shorter legs.

Finally – always prioritise safety by ensuring your child wears a helmet and protective gear.
