Within longboarding, there are different styles of riding, with different styles of longboards to match. Whether you want to cruise campus on the way to class, bomb the gnarliest hill you can find, or session a drainage ditch or park, different boards can make all of these things possible with the best longboard. The first thing to take into consideration when picking a style is where you live and ride. If you reside somewhere flat, you probably won’t be bombing too many hills, and if you live in the mountains, you’ll most likely be hitting hills, flats, and everything in between. Keep this in mind, as well as what you find the most fun at longboardbrand.com.

Cruising and carving longboarding is all about carving down gradually sloped streets, ripping through the quad on your way to class, and long-distance pushes on flat or slightly sloped ground. If you’re just getting into longboarding, this is most likely the type of riding you’ve either already done on your friend’s board or what you’ll start doing on yours.

Downhill longboarding is all about bombing hills as fast as you can while maintaining control. You are usually in a crouching or tucked position on your board for reduced wind resistance and increased stability. Just like in freeriding, it’s not uncommon to break those wheels out in a slide to control your speed, so true downhill isn’t the best style of riding for brand new riders with Best Longboards Brands.
