Longboard

Longboards and cruisers from Arbor and Penny for commuting, carving and relaxed rides around the city, from compact Penny cruisers to 40-inch Arbor decks. Complete boards come ready to ride; decks, trucks and wheels are sold separately in the parts categories.

How to choose: a longer board is more stable and comfortable for cruising, a shorter one is easier to carry and turn. Drop-through decks sit lower and feel steadier, top-mount decks turn quicker. Softer wheels roll smoother over rough asphalt. If you want a surf-like feel on land, see the surfskate category.
