I’ve had one of these for about a year in the UK and it is sooo good for moving around small towns or a big city. Screw it I’ve even bombed a grassy hill in my time of having this! I’ve taken this to London in the past with no problems whatsoever, it’s good for bombing hills with time and practice, one suggestion I would like to make is to bend your legs a lot more on hills and creating an almost, “S”, pattern. This will help curving the hill almost like snowboarding and thus controlling your speed! So much fun in a playful size would definitely recommend if you are in the market for a cruiser that you want to pop a couple ollies every now and then as the boards tail will wear quite easily!! Great video though, I really want to try longboarding in the future sometime as it looks a lot more stable on the hills.
@@joshmahler1113 Yeah! you definitely could do that! But if you're planning on riding it for 40+ minutes without break, I'd look into a longboard instead, because the dinghy can be sore on the feet for really long rides. But for around the neighborhood? yeah, I think you'll have a lot of fun! Just make sure you're practicing a lot, because smaller boards are trickier when it comes to balancing, so its gonna take more practice to become comfortable on it.
Hey man great review! I used to rock a cheap plastic penny board for like, two years, but it recently died on me Anywho, your vid convinced me to buy a turbo king too :)
Great video man. Greatly detailed and making me more excited to receive my board. Keep it up. This is the type of original/detailed content we need on youtube :)
I'm thinking about getting one of these for myself now, I have never learned how to skate before, but I would love to get this to learn and eventually use it to skate to work instead of going by bike. Most of the way has just some sidewalk and then a nice smooth bike lane and I think it will be a lot more convenient, since I would'nt have to park my bike somewhere and then walk the rest of the way to work, instead I'd be able to go right up to work and just store it in the office right near me! Maybe it will even help me get there quicker at some point too, I have a lot of trouble with losing stamina on my bicycle because of my asthma xd
@@OgdenSikel thanks man , dont know why you dont have more than 8 milion subs you have sooooo much potential your my Favourite CZcamsr and i only started watching you yesterday,keep up the good work👍🇿🇦
I was conflicted between the newest version (Dinghy Fender, idk why they keep renaming it) and the drop car which also has the thicc wheels but went with the Dinghy Fender and put some bones ceramics on it and it cruises like a dream and handles cracks which was my main concern, thanks for the vids I know there old but I just got to college this year 😅
I've been thinking about getting a cruiser board and I think the dinghy is my best option here. I have to walk to school Wich is a mile. My main concern is that there is this one big hill on my way there so maybe I'll have to change my walking route next year. I don't want to do alot of tricks mabey just a simple ollie. Plus it's my first skateboard so it might be kinda hard for me to learn at first but some of my friends know how to skate and they said that they'll teach me :) Thank you for the great review now I just have to convince my mom to buy me one 🙈
I’m thinking about getting my first board and was looking at penny boards at first. Now I’m thinking about the dinghy.. I feel like I want a cruiser deep down but scared to spend $150 on something I’ll regret
Hey! So a dinghy is definitely going to be much better in a lot of ways than a penny board, but also if it’s your first board, just know that it might be more tricky to learn how to ride, because the smaller board requires better balance than other boards. This could make it a little more dangerous too because it can be easier to fall off. That being said, you still can learn on these, just be careful. As to your question, if a cruiser board fits your needs more than a skateboard and longboard, then I don’t think you’ll regret the dinghy. These things last years if you take care of them, so it’s an investment that’s well worth it! Hope that helps, feel free to ask other questions.
I bought this board a couple weeks ago. It's definitely a really good GOOD board. Definitely worth sinking the 150 for it. I learned how to skate on the small penny board. It's ight for cruising. But extremely hard to do any tricks on it. The dinghy is the perfect mixture of cruiser and trick board
Ah rip, I was gonna see if I could get one but they're out of stock ಥ_ಥ Gotta wait till they're back in, I like the vid, I've been trying to find an easy skateboard and I havent tried to skate since I was 10 so I'm pretty new to it and think itd be nice to get one of these 😁
Update: I now have a skateboard and have been using it for a few weeks, absolutely love it and its made going to the shop much easier, i now hate walking 🤣
My ATV Cowboy came in, and it’s a lot of fun! I was finally able to Ollie after thinking I just wasn’t good, but the board quality is amazing. It has nice smooth cruiser wheels and a deck that pops really well!
Awesome, glad you explained the differences between a cruiser, longboard, and skateboard! I want a longboard but..not so long but also want it to be maneuverable ahhh 😭
@@OgdenSikel I bought a 35" longboard before even noticing your reply! I'm glad it goes with what you recommended. It'll be my first longboard and from Landyachtz. I can't wait to get it!
Well, I know I'm here two years later, but if it helps on anything, try getting the Schooner from Landyachtz. It came out this year and seems to be a really amazing board. I mean, it's a dinghy shaped board, but it's 32"
I was thinking about getting away to get sting you but then I decided to just build my own mini cruiser. I have some pretty good parts such as hogs wheels
Hey man, Great review. What size risers are on the turbo king? just wondering cause I've heard that with the 72mm plow kings and the risers, the board feels like it sits very tall.. almost too tall. Do you find that to be the case? Also, are the wheels so heavy where its hard to do flip tricks? I'm someone who likes to cruise as well as flip my board around, do you think this will be an issue. I've been looking into the same board lately, and I don't know if I should pull the trigger or not.. Any helpful thoughts?
@@OgdenSikel Hey, thanks for the reply and info. I just thought of the other thing I wanted to ask.. Since it has that layer of fiberglass on the bottom, do you ever get fiberglass splinters from the board? Those annoying little microscopic splinters that come from fiberglass. Thanks again for the help man.
I got this and it's nice, but there are a few things that bug me. First, the trucks squeak a hell of a lot on mine; admittedly I ain't rode it much yet, but were yours like that out the box? Also, the trucks are kinda heavy, which is good for traction, but I'm not great at ollies, so the weight and huge wheels make it a little difficult when it comes to ollieing curbs. Awesome diy graphic btw. Could you link the tailguard also pls?
Hey thanks for the comment! First off, I just linked the tailguards in description! I will say they aren’t the best at staying on though, and require a clamp to really lock them onto the board. As for the trucks, mine didn’t squeak initially but after painting and reassembling the board they for some reason started to squeak....I’ve read that paraffin wax can get rid of the squeaky sounds...actually I’ll probably make a video on this soon. As for the ollies, I agree with you on that; you definitely can learn tricks on it but it’s a little more difficult and because of the lack of a raised nose, it’s easy to miss your landing and get Injured. My advice would be to focus more on your pop of the board, because the back tail is extra tall and can help you get those tricks higher in the air. Keep practicing!!!
@@OgdenSikel Ty. I'll stick with the board cos it's great for strapping to a backback. I'm sure over time I'll improve with it and the squeak will die down after a lil wear and waxing
Hey dude! Cool video! I liked and subscribed. :)) I’m a new skater, I’ve actually never skated in my life, and would really love to get into cruising. My plan is to purchase a landyachtz dingy BK that can last me a couple good years. I really want the turbo, but I don’t know if I should. I’m from Australia, so it’s 300 ish AUD for this board, the turbo, maybe 380 AUD. VERY pricey. Do you have any recommendations? I want this for afternoon cruising, learning a couple tricks and riding with my friends.
hey im just wondering how long is your tail guard im getting a dinghy and i want to get a tail guard to. btw nice vid really helped me out picking my board (hope you awnser)
Hey, can you do powerslide with it? i've been thinking to get one once it's back on stock but like the wheels are pretty big and heavy and i guess it's a little bit harder to powerslide..
Flute Spell you can, and the wheels are actually pretty decent at sliding. But yeah it’s a cruiser so sliding will always be a little difficult to pull off effectively
interesting! The only thing I don't like about arbor boards is the clear spray on grip. It is really difficult to replace if you needed to, but that's just a personal preference!
Hey great video my guy! Quick question I’m remodeling an old longboard of mine and I’m looking for some new trucks I see that you recommended the Paris ones could you give me their exact spec? Like size and stuff thanks!
Hey thanks! The Paris ones on my longboards are the Paris V2 180mm 50degree trucks, but the Paris V3’s are the newest version with same specs. Either will work well for your board I’m sure!
What do you think about the tugboat meowijuana ? I thought about getting this but now I'm not sure.. I have a Longboard but with that I can't ride to school because I can't put it there.. so I need a cruiser to put in my Spint
The tugboat is a little larger than the dinghy, but I think the slightly smaller wheels will make it weight about the same. It's going to be a little more stable than the dinghy, and probably pretty comparable in features. in conclusion, they're pretty similar, so I would decide which one you want based on size.
What tail and nose guards are you using on the Turbo King? I’m about to receive my Turbo King this Friday and would like to add some of those guards. Thx :P
Great vid been looking into the Dinghy coz I’ve had my drop down longboard(which I learned how to skate on) but I kinda want something a bit more maneuverable coz my long board is hard to make sharp turns coz of its drop down but I’m still wondering if it will be a good board for me since I’m probably accustomed to riding it low where the dinghy looks a bit higher... still though, I think imma get one but just been watching reviews to help me decide
Yeah! The dinghy will take some getting used to for sure as there are definitely some differences between a cruiser and longboard. I think cruisers are great to have though because of their small size and portability!
Ogden Sikel just got my dinghy it’s pretty nice ngl still feels like a longboard when cruising but it has this feeling as if I was on high sensitivity mode on a video game , like it feels more responsive then a reg longboard. Really enjoying it ,still getting used to it tho but I just love the fact that I’m gonna finnaly be able to do some tricks with it and that’s what motivates me even more to get on it and learn. But honestly tho great board if you on the fence about it.
I have a question, how long does it take until you get tired of pushing with the dinghy turbo and would a different board be better for an all around board that can do everything? Specificity I’m thinking of getting either the drop cat 33 or the turbo dinghy. I like them big wheels and they’re on both of em.
I can ride the dinghy for 7 or 8 miles before I can start feelin it in my feet. The drop cat would definitely be more versatile but I depends on what exactly you want to do with your board too
I've always been rly into skating but I never learned how to skate and my parents would only buy me decks from toysrus or target. I'm 13 rn but I'm hoping when I turn 16 I can start working so that I can make money to get this board. I just rly wanna cruise around the city in a fun way. I'm gonna start practicing on my target penny board. Do u have any tips on how to ride?
That’s great that you wanna get more into skating!! I’m actually coming out with some beginner guides for learning how to skateboard, but some advice would be just keep practicing your balance and practice pushing around on flat areas. Put most of your weight on the foot near the front of your board also...but yeah keep a lookout for the beginner guides I got coming! Should have some more up within the month
@@OgdenSikel Alright thank you thanks to you im getting the loaded tantien and the turbo king your reviews rly helped me decide i want to get into skateboarding and made finding which boards best easy
would you recommend the dinghy or the tugboat for someone who's 5'2 with a shoe size of 6 women's (which is size 4 mens I think?). I'm looking for a board that can handle rough terrain around my neighborhood, and don't plan on doing anything crazy like hills or tricks ( at most ollies). So basically just for getting from place to place. I live in the suburbs which has so-so roads. I can ride a regular skateboard pretty comfortably, so I'm not a complete beginner. Ty in advance! :]
I’ve never owned one of the landyatchz cruiser board and I was looking at buying one that wasn’t the turbo dinghy. Does the fiberglass make that much of a difference that’s I should turn down that board and look at the turbo dinghy?? Please reply
Good question! While I do not own a regular dinghy, I would bet that it does make a difference, but the difference will probably be minimal. Probably not necessary
Does the size of the board change the functionality of it? Because I'm a smaller 13 year old so should I get a smaller one compared to you or does it really matter?
Surprisingly, not at all! I actually loosened the trucks a lot and tried to force wheel bite but was unable to. The wheel wells and 1/4” riser pads work exceptionally well here
Ogden Sikel Wow-“tried to force wheel bite but was unable to”!?! That sounds awesome. I am still doubting between the Turbo King and one of the Coffin shaped decks! Kind regards from Amsterdam
so I already have a 40 inch Stella Longboard. I really want to get a skateboard for the sole purpose of doing some tricks and just messing around with my friends as well. I take my longboard on both long and short rides and I intend on taking it to college with me. Is a skateboard something I should invest in?
Yeah, If you like tricks, a skateboard would certainly be fun to mess around on. They aren't too expensive either. Now if you're talking CRUISER boards, like the one in this video, I think they are really good for college campuses because of their portability. Be warned though, learning tricks on this can be risky, because the board isn't very forgiving when you mess up. I should know...sprained my ankle on this guy and was out for over 3 months :/....Can be fun for simple tricks though. Hope this helps. feel free to ask anymore clarifying questions!
@@OgdenSikel Thank you that reply helped a lot. I ended up getting a Baker from my local skate shop. I built it and it was a pretty fun experience. Like I said I have my longboard for college, but I will definitely invest in the cruiser for my next board. Thank you for your help!
From the day I ordered it, it arrived in 14 days, including leaving the warehouse. keep in mind I got the board when covid-19 was relatively new, so right now the shipping times may have increased due to slower manufacturing speeds on their end.
@@OgdenSikel dang you just missed the worst of it then lol. im estimating mine to probably take a bit longer than 2 weeks. i got the dinghy coffin. cant wait to try it out.
Depends on the town; if your town has a large downtown area that you plan on skating the most, get the dinghy: its more maneuverable and easier to navigate around in condensed areas. On the other hand, if your town has a lot of long trails that you will be utilizing, a longboard will be more comfortable and stable for those long rides. My current town is like this so I use my longboard mostly, but I'm going to college this fall in a large city for a major downtown area, so my Dinghy will likely be used much more. Hope this helped!
Ogden Sikel it has crappy roads and sidewalks but some roads are nice. I usually ride on the sidewalks or the trail. Its not that big of a town. Does the dinghy have a smooth ride like a longboard?
Yeah it’s pretty smooth, but I personally still feel a little bit more stable on a larger board. The dinghy is very smooth though. Sorry for the late reply, I didn’t get a notification for your reply :/
My shoe size is 9, which means yours are probably around 2 inches longer lol....so I’d say you could still get by with this board but it may be a little small...maybe get one a little longer?
@@OgdenSikel yea, I was thinking about the Revival Birch Please, cause I like it classic and it's bigger, wider and still got good wheels. What do u think? Is it a good option??
hi! im trying to do research on buying a board for going around my college campus because i don't know anything about boards or boarding. would you recommend a landychatz dingy to a beginner? what wheels and other components are best for their prices too? (i did a lil bit of research and i feel like bigger, softer wheels are probably nice? maybe?) the shorter size of this kind of scares me but i trust your opinion if you think it's easy to adjust to.
oh also! if it's at all possible for what you suggest to be under or around $150, that'd be so helpful :) subscribed and liked for all my future boarding needs
Hey thanks for your replies, all great questions! I actually bought this landyachtz board for college next year in a big city, so yeah, I think that this board would work great for campuses. The only thing that would make me hesitant to recommend this to you is the fact that smaller sized boards are definitely more difficult to learn as a beginner. the smaller size means that your center of gravity doesn't have as much room to shift around, so your balance has to be pretty good. If you can comfortably ride around on a normal sized skateboard, or a longboard, I think you will be fine with adjusting to this....but if not, then you're just going to need to practice a bit more first. It I definitely possible to start with one of these though, but spend a fair amount of time practicing first before going to college. Another board that I haven't personally tested, but I've heard great things about is BoardUp, and It might be a perfect board for colleges, and for beginners. Its bigger than the dinghy, and folds up so you can carry it. You can also get this board down from $180 to under $150 by using their coupon code things on their site. Here's a link to their site: goboardup.com?ref=38 As for your other questions, two wheels I like come to mind: 1. Orangatang 4presidents loadedboards.com/products/4president-70mm-longboard-wheel 2. Hawgs Plow Kings landyachtz.com/product/plow-king-72mm/ I've used both of these and they're big, soft wheels perfect for cruising. To conclude, and dinghy boards are going to be great for cruising, and for under $150. The BoardUp could also be the solution you're looking for, as it can be bought for a little under $150, and folds up smaller and is a little more stable. Hope this information helps you, and feel free to reach out with more questions!
Ogden Sikel Thank you so much! It means a lot you took the time to answer in so much detail. :) I actually had a friend recommend a board to me, it’s called a Globe Blazer XL? I don’t know if you’d have any personal experience with it but if you’re at all familiar or could tell me about it in comparison to the boards you recommended, that’d be great. I think this one is supposed to be bigger, but I’m not really sure how big is too big. 🤷🏽♀️ Thank you!!!!
Nicole Ruiz ok so I don’t have personal experience riding that board, but it seems to be about the size of the boardup one I mentioned in the last comment. I have two concerns about it: 1. Is the deck flexy enough? Since you’re using the board mainly for cruising it can be nice to have a flexier deck, or one made to dampen vibrations because too much ground vibration can make your feet hurt after a while. 2. My other concern is that the trucks it comes with are not reverse kingpin (google that if u don’t know), and personally I don’t like regular trucks on longer boards as much. They’re fine on small boards, but bigger ones turn strangely with them imo. Also the wheels on the complete are on the small side of things...just things worth looking into!
Ogden Sikel that makes sense! i thought it seemed a bit heavy and clunky; i think for right now i’ll purchase the boardup board and then maybe in the future buy a dinghy to ride on for when i’m more confident :) thank you so much for all of your help!
Hmmmm....I am still learning slide basics (ordered some slide gloves last week), but I’d say judging by the wheels, it could probably pull off some basic slides....I wouldn’t be taking this sliding down long speedy hills though, because I’d worry about speed wobbles.
If its wobbly just tighten the trucks!!! To quiet the trucks all u have to do is put some wax or bar soap in the pivot cup in the truck axle. Hope this helps!
There’s a custom paint job on the bottom, with a protective waterproof gloss finish...other than that no other mods currently. I made a vid putting longboard trucks on it once so if that counts (but they’re no longer on there)
@@OgdenSikel I think it's just that I've gotten so use to the setup, I've never had speed wobble but you're correct, those 105mm trucks arent the most stable things.😂
Surf skates, while look pretty much identical, have different trucks that turn drastically more and a deck designed for that. Cruisers have trucks and wheels more akin to longboards, but in a smaller form factor. I’m sure both are just as fun though!
Yeah definitely! The sector nine ones have smaller wheels and don’t dampen vibrations as much, so it can tire your feet after a short time. Also the wheels aren’t that great. I would definitely spend a little more and get the dinghy if you’re in the market for a cruiser board. I also heard that the loaded cruiser boards are nice, but haven’t tested them myself
When I can afford one, or better yet when a company sends me a review unit (wink wink) I would be MORE than happy to review and test the heck out of one! ;D
Ogden Sikel Lol hi... my penny board gave me the nastiest wound scratch, so i sold it to a friend... NOW I HAVE A LANDYACTZ CRUISER!! Got it for $140 CAD😝😝
I’ve had one of these for about a year in the UK and it is sooo good for moving around small towns or a big city. Screw it I’ve even bombed a grassy hill in my time of having this! I’ve taken this to London in the past with no problems whatsoever, it’s good for bombing hills with time and practice, one suggestion I would like to make is to bend your legs a lot more on hills and creating an almost, “S”, pattern.

Great insights! You get a pin so others can see this :)
@shroomy Boi it should be fine, I have the original dinghy and my shoe size is 10 so you should be good
Im struggling to understand the ollie sentence are you saying to do ollies or not to?
Your video quality is really good for someone with such a small following keep up the work and you’ll be big in no time bro. Respect
Thank you bro, means a lot 🙂
Ogden Sikel do you recommend the dinghy board for someone who is pretty much a beginner who wants to just ride around their neighborhood for fun
@@joshmahler1113 Yeah! you definitely could do that! But if you're planning on riding it for 40+ minutes without break, I'd look into a longboard instead, because the dinghy can be sore on the feet for really long rides.

Landyachtz is an amazing brand. I ordered a board off of the ATV series.

Ogden Sikel It hasn’t come in yet but I’ll check back when it arrives to describe how it feels. The only real board I had was a sector nine cruiser.

100% right about the speed wobbles lmao

Arent speed wobbles caused by putting not enough weight on your front foot?
I get wobble when the trucks were screwed down tight.
Awesome, glad you explained the differences between a cruiser, longboard, and skateboard! I want a longboard but..not so long but also want it to be maneuverable ahhh 😭
Haha yeah! Try to find a board around 34/35 inches maybe? Check out beercan boards..friend of mine has one and loves it

Hey man, Great review. What size risers are on the turbo king? just wondering cause I've heard that with the 72mm plow kings and the risers, the board feels like it sits very tall.. almost too tall.

I've been looking into the same board lately, and I don't know if I should pull the trigger or not.. Any helpful thoughts?
I’m pretty sure they are about 1/4 inch!
I don’t find it too high off the ground but it definitely is not the easiest to do flip tricks.
@@OgdenSikel Hey, thanks for the reply and info. I just thought of the other thing I wanted to ask.. Since it has that layer of fiberglass on the bottom, do you ever get fiberglass splinters from the board? Those annoying little microscopic splinters that come from fiberglass. Thanks again for the help man.
you can look look _ overland or Carver 32'' Impala C5
I got this and it's nice, but there are a few things that bug me. First, the trucks squeak a hell of a lot on mine; admittedly I ain't rode it much yet, but were yours like that out the box? Also, the trucks are kinda heavy, which is good for traction, but I'm not great at ollies, so the weight and huge wheels make it a little difficult when it comes to ollieing curbs. Awesome diy graphic btw. Could you link the tailguard also pls?
Hey thanks for the comment! First off, I just linked the tailguards in description! I will say they aren’t the best at staying on though, and require a clamp to really lock them onto the board. As for the trucks, mine didn’t squeak initially but after painting and reassembling the board they for some reason started to squeak....I’ve read that paraffin wax can get rid of the squeaky sounds...actually I’ll probably make a video on this soon. As for the ollies, I agree with you on that; you definitely can learn tricks on it but it’s a little more difficult and because of the lack of a raised nose, it’s easy to miss your landing and get Injured. My advice would be to focus more on your pop of the board, because the back tail is extra tall and can help you get those tricks higher in the air. Keep practicing!!!
@@OgdenSikel Ty. I'll stick with the board cos it's great for strapping to a backback. I'm sure over time I'll improve with it and the squeak will die down after a lil wear and waxing
You call that rough surface!? 5:50
U r so under rated...
Hahaha but we growing fasttttt considering I started with nothing so let’s check back in a year 😁
Me too!
Hey dude! Cool video! I liked and subscribed. :)) I’m a new skater, I’ve actually never skated in my life, and would really love to get into cruising. My plan is to purchase a landyachtz dingy BK that can last me a couple good years. I really want the turbo, but I don’t know if I should. I’m from Australia, so it’s 300 ish AUD for this board, the turbo, maybe 380 AUD. VERY pricey. Do you have any recommendations? I want this for afternoon cruising, learning a couple tricks and riding with my friends.
Smilsey yo my board comes in tomorrow so I’ll update you!
Difference with these turbo and the classic with full maple and 63mm wheels? Only wheels and fiberglass?
I SUBBED! I like your vids and they are funny 🚫 🧢
Thank you sir!😁
hey im just wondering how long is your tail guard im getting a dinghy and i want to get a tail guard to. btw nice vid really helped me out picking my board (hope you awnser)
I just bought a hardly used one for $70
Wow!! Awesome!
Sweet
There was exactly 666 likes so I wasn’t gonna like but the video was good so I liked
Hey, can you do powerslide with it? i've been thinking to get one once it's back on stock but like the wheels are pretty big and heavy and i guess it's a little bit harder to powerslide..
Flute Spell you can, and the wheels are actually pretty decent at sliding. But yeah it’s a cruiser so sliding will always be a little difficult to pull off effectively
@ogden how difficult is it to Ollie the plow kings vs the typical hawgs that come with the dinghy?
It takes a tiny bit of getting used to but after a while it is really not much of a difference at all.
The Arbor Pilsner has Paris trucks and it's the same size
interesting! The only thing I don't like about arbor boards is the clear spray on grip. It is really difficult to replace if you needed to, but that's just a personal preference!
@@OgdenSikel Good to know!
They only have the turbo flight is this one still good
the turbo flight is just the 2021 version of the turbo king!
Hey great video my guy! Quick question I’m remodeling an old longboard of mine and I’m looking for some new trucks I see that you recommended the Paris ones could you give me their exact spec? Like size and stuff thanks!
Hey thanks! The Paris ones on my longboards are the Paris V2 180mm 50degree trucks, but the Paris V3’s are the newest version with same specs. Either will work well for your board I’m sure!
Here’s a vid I made about my Paris and bear trucks if u want more info czcams.com/video/lILtW5gwuE4/video.html
Ogden Sikel sick thanks dude keep rocking on
His voice is on the tipping point of deep boi
I am considering this cruiser board, I am worried a little about my height at 6’2 and my 11.5 shoe size. Do I need to worry?
Might be a little small. Doable but you might be uncomfortable....check out the tugboat if this is a concern for you
great review dude ! do u think this board is good for skate parks too ?
Thank you!!! I haven’t actually taken it to a skatepark for extensive testing (maybe future video?) I’d say it’s possible but maybe not ideal.
What do you think about the tugboat meowijuana ? I thought about getting this but now I'm not sure..
I have a Longboard but with that I can't ride to school because I can't put it there.. so I need a cruiser to put in my Spint
The tugboat is a little larger than the dinghy, but I think the slightly smaller wheels will make it weight about the same. It's going to be a little more stable than the dinghy, and probably pretty comparable in features. in conclusion, they're pretty similar, so I would decide which one you want based on size.
@@OgdenSikel okay thank you ^^
Is the Landyachtz dinghy turbo-flight the same thing as the Landyachtz dinghy turbo king?
Yeah pretty much
@@OgdenSikel thank you!
我在中国🇨🇳，已经滑这个板子三年了 ， king 是我的新板子， 超❤️ 自由 的四处走走
What tail and nose guards are you using on the Turbo King? I’m about to receive my Turbo King this Friday and would like to add some of those guards. Thx :P
Never mind! You answered that in the video also lol
Great vid been looking into the Dinghy coz I’ve had my drop down longboard(which I learned how to skate on) but I kinda want something a bit more maneuverable coz my long board is hard to make sharp turns coz of its drop down but I’m still wondering if it will be a good board for me since I’m probably accustomed to riding it low where the dinghy looks a bit higher... still though, I think imma get one but just been watching reviews to help me decide
Yeah! The dinghy will take some getting used to for sure as there are definitely some differences between a cruiser and longboard. I think cruisers are great to have though because of their small size and portability!
Ogden Sikel just got my dinghy it’s pretty nice ngl still feels like a longboard when cruising but it has this feeling as if I was on high sensitivity mode on a video game , like it feels more responsive then a reg longboard. Really enjoying it ,still getting used to it tho but I just love the fact that I’m gonna finnaly be able to do some tricks with it and that’s what motivates me even more to get on it and learn. But honestly tho great board if you on the fence about it.
I have a question, how long does it take until you get tired of pushing with the dinghy turbo and would a different board be better for an all around board that can do everything? Specificity I’m thinking of getting either the drop cat 33 or the turbo dinghy. I like them big wheels and they’re on both of em.
I can ride the dinghy for 7 or 8 miles before I can start feelin it in my feet. The drop cat would definitely be more versatile but I depends on what exactly you want to do with your board too
I've always been rly into skating but I never learned how to skate and my parents would only buy me decks from toysrus or target. I'm 13 rn but I'm hoping when I turn 16 I can start working so that I can make money to get this board. I just rly wanna cruise around the city in a fun way. I'm gonna start practicing on my target penny board. Do u have any tips on how to ride?
That’s great that you wanna get more into skating!! I’m actually coming out with some beginner guides for learning how to skateboard, but some advice would be just keep practicing your balance and practice pushing around on flat areas. Put most of your weight on the foot near the front of your board also...but yeah keep a lookout for the beginner guides I got coming! Should have some more up within the month
Thx for the advice man!! I'm for sure gonna subscribe now!
Its sold out on that website where can I buy them?
Loved it
Hey it’s you again!
:O
I just found ur acc but amazing vids and a new subscriberr
Thank you!! :)
I got the exact same tail guard as you and a nose guard but the nose guard keeps on peeling of in a way. What do i do?
I can only find the turbo flight on there website am i missing something?
Nope that’s just the new 2021 graphic…same board!
@@OgdenSikel Alright thank you thanks to you im getting the loaded tantien and the turbo king your reviews rly helped me decide i want to get into skateboarding and made finding which boards best easy
would you recommend the dinghy or the tugboat for someone who's 5'2 with a shoe size of 6 women's (which is size 4 mens I think?). I'm looking for a board that can handle rough terrain around my neighborhood, and don't plan on doing anything crazy like hills or tricks ( at most ollies). So basically just for getting from place to place. I live in the suburbs which has so-so roads. I can ride a regular skateboard pretty comfortably, so I'm not a complete beginner. Ty in advance! :]
Dinghy would be fine for you but you’d be good on either. I have men’s shoes size 9 and I’m 5’11 and I have no problems with the dinghy size wise
@@OgdenSikel ah ok! Ty!
I’ve never owned one of the landyatchz cruiser board and I was looking at buying one that wasn’t the turbo dinghy. Does the fiberglass make that much of a difference that’s I should turn down that board and look at the turbo dinghy?? Please reply
Good question! While I do not own a regular dinghy, I would bet that it does make a difference, but the difference will probably be minimal. Probably not necessary
Ogden Sikel Thx for the help man I really appreciate it
Does the size of the board change the functionality of it? Because I'm a smaller 13 year old so should I get a smaller one compared to you or does it really matter?
I think you would be perfectly fine with this board! You’d be more stable than me too which is always nice!
where can i buy a tail guard for the dinghy like u do because when you do ollies it really makes the tail get ruined
Honestly I searched “skateboard tail guards” on Amazon and bought one that was around $10. You’ll find a lot of similar ones on there!
Thanks for the review. Normally the Dinghy comes with 63mm wheels-don’t these 72mm wheels cause way more wheel bite??
Surprisingly, not at all! I actually loosened the trucks a lot and tried to force wheel bite but was unable to. The wheel wells and 1/4” riser pads work exceptionally well here
Ogden Sikel Wow-“tried to force wheel bite but was unable to”!?! That sounds awesome. I am still doubting between the Turbo King and one of the Coffin shaped decks! Kind regards from Amsterdam
Ogden Sikel And thank you so much for the quick reply, by the way! ✌️
JD haha yeah it’s a pretty sweet mini cruiser! Thanks, and good luck on getting your board!! :)
so I already have a 40 inch Stella Longboard. I really want to get a skateboard for the sole purpose of doing some tricks and just messing around with my friends as well. I take my longboard on both long and short rides and I intend on taking it to college with me. Is a skateboard something I should invest in?
Yeah, If you like tricks, a skateboard would certainly be fun to mess around on. They aren't too expensive either. Now if you're talking CRUISER boards, like the one in this video, I think they are really good for college campuses because of their portability. Be warned though, learning tricks on this can be risky, because the board isn't very forgiving when you mess up. I should know...sprained my ankle on this guy and was out for over 3 months :/....Can be fun for simple tricks though. Hope this helps. feel free to ask anymore clarifying questions!
@@OgdenSikel Thank you that reply helped a lot. I ended up getting a Baker from my local skate shop. I built it and it was a pretty fun experience. Like I said I have my longboard for college, but I will definitely invest in the cruiser for my next board. Thank you for your help!
@@OgdenSikel Also sorry about your ankle lol. But based on the video it looks like you're doing better so thats good
4:58 missed opportunity to say "break a leg"
I’m getting the same thing but it has a different design it’s the crown peak and I just need 20 bucks then it’s mine
im dumb, is this the turbo flight from their website?
No this is the turbo king, but the flight is pretty much the same board just with a new graphic for 2021.
dude how long did shipping take? it says on the site its going to be 14 days for it to even leave out of warehouse.
From the day I ordered it, it arrived in 14 days, including leaving the warehouse. keep in mind I got the board when covid-19 was relatively new, so right now the shipping times may have increased due to slower manufacturing speeds on their end.
@@OgdenSikel dang you just missed the worst of it then lol. im estimating mine to probably take a bit longer than 2 weeks. i got the dinghy coffin. cant wait to try it out.
Which would you recommend for cruising around town. Longboard or Dinghy?
Depends on the town; if your town has a large downtown area that you plan on skating the most, get the dinghy: its more maneuverable and easier to navigate around in condensed areas. On the other hand, if your town has a lot of long trails that you will be utilizing, a longboard will be more comfortable and stable for those long rides. My current town is like this so I use my longboard mostly, but I'm going to college this fall in a large city for a major downtown area, so my Dinghy will likely be used much more. Hope this helped!
Ogden Sikel it has crappy roads and sidewalks but some roads are nice. I usually ride on the sidewalks or the trail. Its not that big of a town. Does the dinghy have a smooth ride like a longboard?
Yeah it’s pretty smooth, but I personally still feel a little bit more stable on a larger board. The dinghy is very smooth though. Sorry for the late reply, I didn’t get a notification for your reply :/
Ogden Sikel alright thanks gotta wait til they restock tho
i was just wondering if this board size would be good for a size 10 foot ?
I’m size 9 and it’s good for me if that helps! Still have a bit of room but definitely pretty small
I have 14 shoe size, do u think I should by it, because I don’t know if it’s too small.
My shoe size is 9, which means yours are probably around 2 inches longer lol....so I’d say you could still get by with this board but it may be a little small...maybe get one a little longer?
@@OgdenSikel yea, I was thinking about the Revival Birch Please, cause I like it classic and it's bigger, wider and still got good wheels. What do u think? Is it a good option??
Looks cool! I have a feeling it’ll perform similar to the one I have, only it’s slightly larger...looks like a lot of fun though!!
@@OgdenSikel ok thanks man 👍🏻✌🏻✌🏻
hi! im trying to do research on buying a board for going around my college campus because i don't know anything about boards or boarding. would you recommend a landychatz dingy to a beginner? what wheels and other components are best for their prices too? (i did a lil bit of research and i feel like bigger, softer wheels are probably nice? maybe?) the shorter size of this kind of scares me but i trust your opinion if you think it's easy to adjust to.
oh also! if it's at all possible for what you suggest to be under or around $150, that'd be so helpful :) subscribed and liked for all my future boarding needs
Hey thanks for your replies, all great questions!
I actually bought this landyachtz board for college next year in a big city, so yeah, I think that this board would work great for campuses. The only thing that would make me hesitant to recommend this to you is the fact that smaller sized boards are definitely more difficult to learn as a beginner. the smaller size means that your center of gravity doesn't have as much room to shift around, so your balance has to be pretty good. If you can comfortably ride around on a normal sized skateboard, or a longboard, I think you will be fine with adjusting to this....but if not, then you're just going to need to practice a bit more first. It I definitely possible to start with one of these though, but spend a fair amount of time practicing first before going to college.
Another board that I haven't personally tested, but I've heard great things about is BoardUp, and It might be a perfect board for colleges, and for beginners. Its bigger than the dinghy, and folds up so you can carry it. You can also get this board down from $180 to under $150 by using their coupon code things on their site. Here's a link to their site:
goboardup.com?ref=38
As for your other questions, two wheels I like come to mind:
1. Orangatang 4presidents
loadedboards.com/products/4president-70mm-longboard-wheel
2. Hawgs Plow Kings
landyachtz.com/product/plow-king-72mm/
I've used both of these and they're big, soft wheels perfect for cruising.
To conclude, and dinghy boards are going to be great for cruising, and for under $150. The BoardUp could also be the solution you're looking for, as it can be bought for a little under $150, and folds up smaller and is a little more stable. Hope this information helps you, and feel free to reach out with more questions!
Ogden Sikel Thank you so much! It means a lot you took the time to answer in so much detail. :) I actually had a friend recommend a board to me, it’s called a Globe Blazer XL? I don’t know if you’d have any personal experience with it but if you’re at all familiar or could tell me about it in comparison to the boards you recommended, that’d be great. I think this one is supposed to be bigger, but I’m not really sure how big is too big. 🤷🏽♀️ Thank you!!!!
Nicole Ruiz ok so I don’t have personal experience riding that board, but it seems to be about the size of the boardup one I mentioned in the last comment. I have two concerns about it: 1. Is the deck flexy enough? Since you’re using the board mainly for cruising it can be nice to have a flexier deck, or one made to dampen vibrations because too much ground vibration can make your feet hurt after a while. 2. My other concern is that the trucks it comes with are not reverse kingpin (google that if u don’t know), and personally I don’t like regular trucks on longer boards as much. They’re fine on small boards, but bigger ones turn strangely with them imo. Also the wheels on the complete are on the small side of things...just things worth looking into!
Ogden Sikel that makes sense! i thought it seemed a bit heavy and clunky; i think for right now i’ll purchase the boardup board and then maybe in the future buy a dinghy to ride on for when i’m more confident :) thank you so much for all of your help!
Why can't I find these anywhere!? Would anyone be willing to sell me theirs?
You could check r/longboarding on reddit. they have a buy/sell pinned weekly discussion and you could ask on there! good luck to ya!
Do you think, the Dinghy is also great for sliding?
Hmmmm....I am still learning slide basics (ordered some slide gloves last week), but I’d say judging by the wheels, it could probably pull off some basic slides....I wouldn’t be taking this sliding down long speedy hills though, because I’d worry about speed wobbles.
Once the wheels break in they slide pretty well!!!
Was gonna get one but they outta stock :/
Nouuuuuuuuuuuuu hopefully theyre back in soon!
I just got my board today is your board supposed to be very wobbly and squeaky
If its wobbly just tighten the trucks!!! To quiet the trucks all u have to do is put some wax or bar soap in the pivot cup in the truck axle. Hope this helps!
Alex Savering thank you !!
Besides the tail protector, what other mods are on this board?
There’s a custom paint job on the bottom, with a protective waterproof gloss finish...other than that no other mods currently. I made a vid putting longboard trucks on it once so if that counts (but they’re no longer on there)
Is it good for doing tricks?
Yeah! You have to be careful when landing because of the extremely small nose, but tricks can definitely be done
@@OgdenSikel Great! Thanks!
And I believe for helping me ima give u a sub
i got the turbo cruiser and not the turbo king. is it still good?
Yeah it should still be quite good!
What are you talking about I bomb HUGE hills on my dinghy all the time😂
Alex Savering wow well I think my trucks may be a little too loose for that haha
@@OgdenSikel I think it's just that I've gotten so use to the setup, I've never had speed wobble but you're correct, those 105mm trucks arent the most stable things.😂
Cruiser is the same board as a surfskate? Is any differents in this boards?
Surf skates, while look pretty much identical, have different trucks that turn drastically more and a deck designed for that. Cruisers have trucks and wheels more akin to longboards, but in a smaller form factor. I’m sure both are just as fun though!
@@OgdenSikel ok thanks. That was realy helpful have a nice day/night
how much are the tailguards and how long do they last?
They’re around $10 on Amazon, and I don’t know how long they last but mine are still holding up. I’ll make a video about them soon
i have the same board and i am able to go down hills
me too! its just a little sketch at high speeds
Beware theres rona in the park 😂
Yeah😬 I try to go to secluded places as much as I can
would you recommend the dingy over a Sector 9
Yeah definitely! The sector nine ones have smaller wheels and don’t dampen vibrations as much, so it can tire your feet after a short time. Also the wheels aren’t that great. I would definitely spend a little more and get the dinghy if you’re in the market for a cruiser board. I also heard that the loaded cruiser boards are nice, but haven’t tested them myself
Ogden Sikel thanks! for the recommendation I just ordered the dinghy and I am very excited
That’s awesome! Hope you enjoy it!
Where can I buy it if their website is out of stock?
Unfortunately it seems to be literally sold out on the entire internet. Either check a local shop or wait til they restock :/
Ogden Sikel yeah it sucks. I check locally and it isn’t in stock anywhere
Do you get wheel bite with those wheels?
Luis Barnett nope! Not at all, they’re awesome

i need a tail guad for my pugboat, im murdering my tail trying to Manuel
I feel that...yeah tail guards definitely help with that, just make sure you get a good quality one
@@OgdenSikel any recommendations?
Check my new video! I linked some in the description that may be what you’re looking for
r u alone in this city ?
Livin at my parents house until I move to my university either next semester or next fall
I’m to broke for these boards
why have cool stuff on urs
hey! If you mean the design on the board, Its a custom design. Here is the video I made of the customization:
czcams.com/video/WY8OG600pTk/video.html
U should buy electric skateboard, the cheapest one
When I can afford one, or better yet when a company sends me a review unit (wink wink) I would be MORE than happy to review and test the heck out of one! ;D
I have a $30 penny board and i want a cruiserrrrrrrr but its 200 cad dollar☠️☠️☠️
Jad Pang yeah D: they’re definitely an expensive investment
Ogden Sikel Lol hi... my penny board gave me the nastiest wound scratch, so i sold it to a friend... NOW I HAVE A LANDYACTZ CRUISER!! Got it for $140 CAD😝😝
