Longboards - What's the What?

longboards are fun, I learned to ride on one and then kind of felt lame on it after a while. Now I have a normal board with some big wheels on it that I like to cruise on a lot more, its smaller, lighter, and more manueverable and I can plausibly do a trick on it if I ever practiced that. I had one of the tiny plastic penny boards as well and they are a blast I would use it to bar hop and never had a major issue even when heavily intoxicated.
I just got a unicycle which I am attempting to learn but the curve is pretty steep, Soon enough though I will be drunkenly terrorizing cars on one wheel rather than 4

Why are bikes better? Lol, they are much more safer. They have two brakes. A longboard relies on your foot/shoe so I'd say it's much more dangerous to ride in traffic on one.

This.

Have brakes, you can jump curbs, go through any terrain (and i`m saying ANY), climb streets, and a bike feels alot more "natural" than a longboard.

I've used to ride a BMX for a long time, gone through a trial, and not i have a MTB. But i'm thinking if i should get a skateboard or a longboard. They seem to be fun to ride, and i want to learn.

yeah how is this even a question?

Longboards can be good for short commutes and campus. Expect to pay no less than $190 for a quality longboard. Longskating is a hobby of mine, I don't use as transportation. Obviously bikes are better and safer for commuting.

If you got good enough to actually bomb hills, instead of cruising around like a faggot, you would understand.

If you dont start skating from childhood(15 at the latest), you have pretty much no chance of getting decent at skateboarding. And if you do want to get the hang of it, you are going to have to put way more time than you are probably willing into getting the hang of it.

tl;dr if you didnt skate as a child, dont start now unless you like fucking up your legs.

I wish I was good on one. Early twenties now and seems to late to learn.

Tried learning how to long board last year but steep hills everywhere plus was injured for a few months. Want try learning again but bikes be my fetish, also want to find someone who can teach me.
