    If you’re a surfer or you want to develop flowy style you absolutely must own a cruiser board. First time I ever dropped into a bowl was on a Santa Cruz land shark. They teach you how to maximize your comfort level on your board and are a thousand times smoother for traveling and bombing. I feel as if any skater will benefit from spending some time on a cruiser

  • @juststitches
    @juststitches Před 3 lety +14

    Another reason to have one is because it's fun... I like to try skating different boards/setups, even if it's challenging. Might make you look at things differently or do things you've never thought of/tried before. IMO.

  • @JDMricist
    @JDMricist Před 3 lety +1

    Not only is a cruiser board quieter it's also a lot smoother, could be turnier (depending on how it's set up) and it's a lot easier to pump and roll over bigger rocks and sticks because of the larger and softer wheels. It's such an obvious choice for people have have ridden a very well set up cruiser or longboard. How does one set up a cruiser? Find a shape that you like with a kicktail and flat front then put an angled riser on the front truck with some medium soft Venom or Reflex bushings. Makes turning at any speed much smoother and more controllable. Then some good quality bearings with the softest and biggest wheels that will fit and you have yourself a mind blowingly carvy/surfy and controllable cruiser. You might just end up preferring to cruise and bomb hills instead of street skating like I did.

My first board was a fishtail that I found when I was a kid, and though popsicles were already I thing I didn’t have one for years. I learned my first tricks on that board and will always have a soft spot for them.

It's a whole different feel. Some things are harder but that makes it more fun. It hones in your skills on a regular board. I have way too much fun on my cruiser boards.

      @@joehernandez1694 I know, but they're coming up with reasons to have a crusier board and all they come up with are the wheels. You can either have extra soft wheels or another popsicle deck with soft wheels and get the same result and still be able to do more tricks on them than a cruiser.
      The reason I want a cruiser is to have wider deck for bombing hills and riding on rough terrain. Also a board I don't mind keeping in my car.
