@@freeair7292 im out almost every day with the dog, letting him half and half drag me 😁 I can cruise fairly well but i do choose routes i know will be less crowded and such! Its great fun!
Just got my Ditch Life ATV and it's a hoot! It's what I like about my Dinghy Classic but more stable!! My #1 favorite is still my Drop Carve, I can push 20+ miles and have a great time bombing paths with confidence because of how low it is, versus a top-mount like the Ditch Life and Dinghys.
My all time fave Landyachtz is my 38" Drop Cat from the first year of Drop Cat production. It feels more agile, capable of tighter turns, than the 38" Drop Cat from last year (I guess that's down to the 2 degree difference in truck angle?). I also have (and love) last year's 33" with the Vibes graphic. It rides almost exactly the same as my older 38", I just pick the one that best matches whatever shoes I'm wearing :P In any case, the Drop Cat is a lovely board, I would recommend the current 33" Drop Cat to just about anybody looking for something fast and stable, good for commuting, and generally just a joy to ride. Also Landyachtz completes are so good, just buy a complete board.
My second ever board (after a cheap amazon drop through) was the Stratus 46 spectrum since I knew I wanted to do dancing. It's an absolute blast and my favorite purchase of last year hands down. Every day I can I go out and practice around 2 hours! I've transitioned into freestyle too so I'm eyeing the Tony Danza for that shorter, lighter setup.
Not realizing was a thing, and slowly inching towards what I'm actually looking for/what works best for me, has been my whole journey so far. First, it was, like, "I want to skateboard", then it was, "I probably just need a cruiser, actually", then, "A longboard is kind of awesome". At this point, "I should have a cruiser and a longboard, and practice with both" is where I've settled. I wonder where I'll find myself next month...
Easiest cruz for me is the low riding Switch. I have plenty of other boards but The Switch 40 from landyachtz has always been my favorite daily commute. Honorable mention to the landshark Been using the same one for about 10 years cause that 10 ply canadian maple is solid.
choose surfskate :) personnaly, i've tried the steet skateboard in first, but i didn't like it, and, then, i've tried surfskate (I have a Triton by Carver 30" with CX trucks) and I think that's versatile and really cool to use !
Hello there, I am one of your favourite fan of your CZcams channel, I like skateboarding very much, your video are very informational and educational, thanks so much.
@@JedEdmondson good looks. I’ve been looking into the drop cat because I don’t have crazy steep hills and I feel the like the cat would still be nimble but obviously handle hills way better than the dinghy. Honestly I’ve got an addiction of buying boards at this point so I’ll just get them both eventually lmao. Definitely will look into the evo
The Drop Cat is so good, I don't think you'll be disappointed if that's what you pick. I like the feel of the 33" over the 38" myself, the 38" is maybe a little too stable and not so turny. If you're very very tall then maybe the 38" is the better choice just to give you the larger standing platform. Personally I wouldn't pick the Evo unless you're actually planning on going blisteringly fast down crazy hills, although even if that's your plan, there are other boards that can do that and more these days. The Evo is very heavy and not a great cruiser. Using it to get around town is like taking an F1 car to the grocery store, it's out of it's element and will struggle with curbs and driveways. It's so dedicated to being fast and stable downhill that it's not very good at doing anything else.
@@Draxzy Don't get the drop cat if you are planning to downhill. The drop cats are very bouncy boards, they will still handle very mild downhill but I don't recommend taking it past 20mph. It a phenomenal board for just about everything else though, I love the feeling of it under my feet!
@@maxthrust976 The Evo most definitely can do everything else and would be great for commuting longer distances. The wheel base is a bit longer than a normal board so commuting in crowded streets or narrow sidewalks won't be as good as another board but still a great board overall.
My first board was a Big W board, with ass bearings and terrifying flex. My second board and current board is named Susan. Susan is an Uska cut deck from fluidelongskate, caliber 50 II 44 deg trucks, bones racers and abec 11 slide wheels. It's a freeride beauty and handles big hills with ease. Longboarding has become my meditation and I'm grateful for Susan every day
Just had a friend from church gifted me an Arbor Pintail from the Artist Series. Ive only ever ridden skateboards, so it took some getting used to, but I freaking love it!
Do you have any maintenance tutorial videos on longboards preferably the Condor of paradise pintail board.. specifically the trucks and wheels and bearings and all that jazz
First ever deck I had I got for my 11th birthday and it was a dingy with that sick owl graphic, that was almost 6 years ago and I have fallen in love with downhill and freestyle. Just retired my old Sector 9 and started using a Santa Cruz that I have but I've been eyeballing the landyachtz switchblade for a while. Anyone have feedback on the switchblade? Is it a good board?
A friend of mine has the switchblade, I haven't ridden it much but the it felt really high quality and nice when I tried it. It's really low and stiff in the best way. Another friend of mine has an Arbor flagship double drop through, don't know what it's called exactly but it felt insanely good too :)
I got the landyachtz T-Rex tugboat cruiser skateboard probably about 4 years ago for my birthday and now its all beat up and the tail is boutta snap but i definitely had a lot of memories with it. Im trying to figure out what next cruiser board i wanna try, thinking about another tugboat crusier.
Hello 👋 I am looking for the longboard for my son. He is a college student and need one to ride to school and on the campus. He is a beginner, 6’4” tall, shoes size 14. I have no idea what to look for
For a first longboard check out our drop boards. Drop Cat 37, Top Cat, Drop Hammer, Battle Axe. All great for learning to push and carve, very stable. If they want a kicktail check out some of our Cruisers or ATV boards. Skiff, Raft, Perfecto, DitchLife, Dinghy Blunt. All are good options for a first board Here's a short video about some boards for campus: czcams.com/users/shortsGiSyIMvyD6U This one was filmed on campus: czcams.com/video/hlaqmOT6kB4/video.html
Big Dipper is an incredibly fun board! Great for carving and offers nice stability. It's one of the longest boards we make so it's not always ideal for commuting due to it's size (getting through crowds, carrying on the bus/in class). That being said, anything over 35 inches will be fine @@1977fala
Just picked up a sidewalker for my first board 6 days ago. Already got 27 miles on it and hit 25mph. I need to learn how to power slide. If I wanna hit more higher speeds what wheels and trucks should I set it up with?
I’m a beginner skater and I’m wondering what skate would be the best for commuting to school I think it’s between cruiser longboard or atv but I’m stuck
Honestly landyachtz whats going on with the downhill/freeride series, not everyone wants to just cruise and i hate to see how the sport is really slowing down in puerto rico and some parts of usa is hard to find high performance boards and when i try to buy them online theyre simply out of stock real sad dudes
in other way, I love the Landy's doing. as you know, downhill / freeride scene are shrink in world widly. but LY keep R&D Downhill category. and, more people who enjoy cruising, it will make bigger maniac board scene.
I love Landyachts let me say for starts, as expected y’all lead innovation, and quality boards. This comment is a little if not entirely corrective in pointing out a video like this highlights experience shredding. So much so it’s seductive and misleading. Maybe even dangerous to beginners, like whom you’re educating here. Tragic reality we know and seen firsthand that is unsettling and never escapes you. Riding discipline types vary and take months to years of solid dedication. Assuming the target audience doesn’t know basics, at least throw in some advisory jive. Simmer on that. Observation less safety in the community. Not good.
Just bought a longboard from you guys. Problem is, I’ve never been on any board before 😂. So hopefully I’ll be able to learn well
I bought a cruiser from them that is arriving this week, and ive never stood on a board before either!
Did you learn anything now? 😅
@@-Markus- how it went? Lol
@@freeair7292 im out almost every day with the dog, letting him half and half drag me 😁
I can cruise fairly well but i do choose routes i know will be less crowded and such!
Its great fun!
@@-Markus-I started the same way lol.....I remember going down my driveway was so exciting for me 😂
Y’all make a great product! I’m loving my Drop Cat Vibes!!
To which board do you compare?
Just got my Ditch Life ATV and it's a hoot! It's what I like about my Dinghy Classic but more stable!! My #1 favorite is still my Drop Carve, I can push 20+ miles and have a great time bombing paths with confidence because of how low it is, versus a top-mount like the Ditch Life and Dinghys.

It's a blast

Hey man, I have the tony danza as my first board, and I can recommend it's great :)
I havent had another board, but I really love it!
just ordered the skeleton dinghy.. cant wait. short 5 min commute to work will be a blast and takes no gas!
The answer is both! Love you guys.
I have two of your longboards and a dinghy. Love my boards and you guys. Can’t wait to add more to my collection
Dude...I didn't realize atv was a thing and that's EXACTLY what I was looking for! Much much appreciated homie 🙏🏽

I tried cruisers first but totally prefer the ride on a surfskate... tho I personally picked the C7. Wanna try a CX sometime soon tho
Just bought a landyacht today I can't wait for it to come in
Still enjoying riding and dancing with my Stratus 46. 😊
Went with a standard Dinghy to a Coffin and ended with a Dinghy Turbo Flight. Hands down the best board money can buy. :)
i have the battleaxe shogun from like 4 years ago i have had it for 3 and love it
I LOVE my Condor Paradise Longboard!! so Fun! and Pretty! 💛💚
Indeed it is!
I would start with longboard first since it's the most comfortable and easiest option. Then cruiser.
Hello there, I am one of your favourite fan of your CZcams channel, I like skateboarding very much, your video are very informational and educational, thanks so much.
I gotta say I love my dinghy but I definitely want something more stable for hills. Definitely looking into it
Evo dude, can't recommend it enough. Both sizes are great and it's DUMMY stable. Fasr, stable, drifty. A true weapon of speed. Highly recommend.

Than you so much for the video! God bless 💓

I own a Dinghy Blunt and the 41" pintail.
YOO, I’m so excited I bought a new downhill board, it’s coming tomorrow😊
I literally found a battle axe 2014 bamboo landyachtz in the trash. spray WD-40 of the wheels and they spin very well great board

Great guide ! I didn't know ATV and it's what I searched !! What does ATV stand for ? Is the "Element Hatched Cruiser" a ATV ?

Another good place for boards is pawnshops. I picked up a basically brand new LY Switchblade for $60. I felt like I robbed him but I bet he paid $30.

What if i want a cruser that can surf but that can go down hill
Bastante completas las categorías.
Yo, what happend to the wolfshark boards. Want one but you cant find them anywhere.
My fav board is my current one. The Original Freeride 38 Owl
Just picked up a sidewalker for my first board 6 days ago. Already got 27 miles on it and hit 25mph. I need to learn how to power slide. If I wanna hit more higher speeds what wheels and trucks should I set it up with?
Would a drop through longboard provide a good cruising experience?
Yes! Super stable and the lowered platform makes pushing long distance very easy
Whats the best style of board for speed on flatground?
Landyachtz W
Do penny boards work as surf skates
What song is playing in the background? 🌿
I’m a beginner skater and I’m wondering what skate would be the best for commuting to school I think it’s between cruiser longboard or atv but I’m stuck
I wanna be the type of person that can ride anything due to adaptability
The answer is simple, cruiser always wins
Does gas out of my bôttöm maek my board faster
За 2 года увлечения, в коллекции 16 комплектов из них 12 от LY, спасибо за качество!

NEVER A LONGBOARD. A BOARD NEEDS A KICKSTAND. 🎉🎉🎉

WHY DID YOU GUYS STOP MAKING SKATE VIDEOS?
go out there and skate more shit pls
Or you could just buy a regular board
Neither. Grow a set and skate a regular board.
Forced dialogue delivery?
Longboards... For people who naive enough to think curbs don't exist
longboards are the wrongboards.....and don't a push mongo😢
