Beginners learn skateboarding first, so the length and weight of the long board and the softness of the wheels are very suitable for beginners, and the stability is far better than that of the double-upturned board, and they will not rely too much on flat terrain when going out (the double-upturned board is easily stuck by a pebble). So longboard skateboarding is not suitable for beginners.
Longboards, which were first born in surfboards and roller skates, are similar to surfboards/skis with wheels. Compared with ordinary skateboards, it has longer and wider board surface, bigger, softer and wider wheels, longer battery life, better road adaptability, faster starting time and better operation feeling. The length of the long board is usually between 33 and 59 inches (84 to 150 cm) and the width is between 9.0 and 10.0 inch (22.8 to 25.4 cm). The main materials include maple, bamboo, glass fiber, carbon fiber, metal and mixed materials.
The biggest disadvantage of long board instead of walking is that it is cumbersome and inconvenient to carry, and it is completely cumbersome to meet steps on the road.
