This guide is bad. I'll give it a shot: Kicktail: if it has a kick, you can do tricks like a skateboard. that's right. Pintail: these are for riding around in basic form, not many tricks, slides, high speeds. Just enjoying the ride. Drop Through (and drop down): good for some high speed, or for slides and freeriding. THEY DO NOT TURN SHARPLY. huge mistake by this video, they are harder to turn because they are made for sliding and speed, both of which require more stability. I hope this helps

Was he just skating on grass wtf

sondr yeah you can do that.

My type of videos- question->answer end of story :) Good job

Damn that actually helped

I'm just starting out and I got a kick tail... Never really went skateboarding but it feels good to ride with my back foot over the bolts and the outside of my foot on the base of the kick

A pintail is generally a cruising board, but if you are going to be pushing, a drop through board is more comfortable over long periods of time

I can't wait to get my sector 9 longboard but I have to wait till Friday because that's pay day and the one I want is 250$ lmfao

I liked this video, it was short and sweet.

I have been searching the internet for something that can tell me what kinds of longboards there so I know what I should get and this is the best I could find and it's not even a minute long! I mean how is a beginner like me supposed to know what types of experiences you get on the different types of boards with a one sentence description? Come on, whats wrong with making a 5 min video that goes into an in-depth analysis of comparing different boards so people like me know what we should buy?

Do you know anything that would help me ?

I'm a beginner and I have a drop trough.. and i'm happy with it.. I do want a pintail since I'll be using my longboard for healthy transportation :)

if i want to go for long distances, what board do i choose? freeride or cruising?

Wha'ever people tell, don't get a drop thru as beginner... They may slide easier at the beginning but the better you get, the worse gets the control over the board. Scince you asked this past a year now, what have you bought? I got a madrid Weezer (Topmount Freestyle) complete 180€ and put some shakejunt OG's and shockpads on it and it has probably the best ride feeling as its smooth with the cadillac wheels 80a 70mm's. I'm close to get into a slide (at least at ground like at a train station)!

whats the difference between pintail and freeride??

What if you're short.. But you also want sharp turns and just want to cruise around in your neighborhood? That'd be like 3 different longboards.. Drop through, pintail, and a freestyle 🙃😂 HELP what do I choose

nothing is wrong with being short.....ride wjatever u want to.......watch derriger 28

The drop down is my exact board the splinter 35

Drop down and drop through I can't find that board,anywhere anyhelp

pintails are better for cruising, drop thru is more stable

where can i buy a deck like the board in the middle 0:10 - 0:18 ( all white bamboo freestyle deck)

Erin Smalley thanks for the good word! Pintail 40 with S8s is totally a classic as far as cruising and carving. It's actually a super good board to teach someone on also if you are ever getting your friends into it, its pretty much perfect, or at least I like it haha

Gustavo Santa Depends what you want to do. There is no best board, only the best board for you and what you want to do with it. Figure out what style of riding you want to pursue and then post up with your height and weight, you'll get plenty of options.

You forgot dancer boards

go to silverfish. com. it's a forum specifically for longboarders. it'll help you learn a lot!

I have a pintail but im tall

wtf... why would he go through that puddle?

and downhill

that was fast :D

thanks i was gonna make a mistakes XD

Stop hating if you dont like the video move on and stop f****** hattiinngg

So I get that these guys are kinda not the best, but longboard4life97 I reminds me if truly on rye, covered in shit.

A lot of nonsense here.

what the fuck, have you ever seen longboarding thats not on a netball court?????

If you like mannies, get a kicktail. if you want to cruise get a cruiser/pintail if you wanna freeride top mount downhill drop through tricks freestyle you guys need to do research, and learn how to shred before making a video.

This is the best comment on this video hope everyone reads this

reddit .com /r/ longboarding

The fuck?

hahahaahahaha thats all?

this did not help me at all

What the fuck did i just watch

No. No. No No. No.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA really?

have you ever even ridden a penny board? the kryptonics boards are super cheap and crappy you would only think these boards were nice if you didn't know shit about skating. and this video is talking about longboards not 22 inch cruisers.

That is the worst attempt at carving I have ever seen.

this sucks

Good news is you got a $100 piece of shit for $10. Bad news is it's a piece of shit. But hey you could be doing worse and have a Krown board.
