i've been skating for 12+ years. I started when i was 7. Dont get a worldindustries like above, those are terrible. Elements are fine, like the one you have in your link, but there are better quality decks such as Baker and Zero. It's all on preference but the element will definently do the job.

Hahaha man I was thinking about making a thread too, now that its getting warmer out. Been skating since I was like 10. Right now ive been skating Plan b boards, and grind king trucks. I went out skating the other day and landed a couple kickflips and varials so I was pretty pumped after not skating all winter to get back out and land something.

I use to skate a lot haha.
I loved my set up.
It was an element featherlight.
Blue Angle bearings (either go with them or Redz)
Independent Trucks, wheels don`t really matter, just if they`re hard or soft, but I had spitfire.
I`d suggest building your own complete setup instead of buying a complete though.

I don't skateboard, but I do longboard a lot. Nothing is better than the feeling of bombing down hills while high, it's priceless haha.
I had a pretty sweet Dregs board but it recently broke, so I'm looking for a new one. Dregs is the only type of board I will ride, they are like non other. Any other longboarders out there?

almost 8" resin 8 ply deck, royal trucks, reds and blank wheels and to finish the list off.... blown up knee
. if im really careful sometimes i can still get my fakie 360 kickflips. buy an almost deck or some other new technology deck and some rictas and some tensor or royal trucks and you'll have an amazing setup

haha, sounds good.
i was looking at long boards, but decided not to get one...not now anyway.
never tried one before, but they certainly do look like fun

They are pretty fun. Really smooth ride, it feels like your almost gliding. If you get one I would definetly recommend a Dregs, I had a Sector 9 once and it wasn't that great.
Longboards are really chill in my opinion. You can just cruise around and it will be fun haha.
