CRUISER BOARD OR LONGBOARD?!? 2021 Edition! (UPDATED)

[@BrianLeverett]

I recently visited Georgia Southwestern University to cruise around on my Dinghy. It was going well until I was stopped by a security guy. He told me there was a zero tolerance policy on all skateboards, shooters, or anything like it. I was like, what?! Be thankful you can ride on campus! Love your videos, by the way!

[@OgdenSikel]

Dude that’s horrible!!! Wtf that would actually suck 😔

[@LarsLarsen77]

A skateboard is a vehicle, you can ride it anywhere you can drive a car. Perhaps you can't ride it on sidewalks on private property like a college, but if they have roads that are open to the public then you're fine.

[@animalfinatic9366]

the dancing at the end is killing me it just screams vibey

[@OgdenSikel]

Ok but how many times did I say “chillin’ “ in this video 💀

[@MightBeCale]

Not enough tbh. Those are rookie numbers

[@animalfinatic9366]

take a shot each time

[@whiskers_n_lashes3513]

Nice! I love both my Cruiser and my LB, the cruiser is great in the city but more challenging for a beginner like me (3 falls so far). The longboard however feels like home, know what I mean? Love your work!

[@evane2784]

A wrench in the debate that I have found great success with at my college (curbs aren't common) are "short drop throughs." I've been using the Arbor Zeppelin (32x9) for the past few months and its been a blast. The 65mm wheels are a solid size and the deck size allows me similar maneuverability to my Dinghy Blunt but is lower and has full size trucks. Looking back, I wish I had gotten the LY Drop Cat 33 (33x9.6) since its wider and has larger wheels (72mm). The Zeppelin and similar boards are overlooked and worth the attention of other college skaters if you're stuck between cruisers or a longboard.

[@OgdenSikel]

This is true!

You uploaded this at the perfect time my guy you don’t miss

[@Celestial_Lilly]

Yea I hate the rain I've had to stop riding my longboard a quite a few times because it started raining

[@OgdenSikel]

It’s always a love hate situation with rain 😔

[@postmodernjoe]

Lol I’m about to go hang with a friend and ride his longboard while he rides my cruiser cuz neither of us have ridden the other one and we both wanna know how they compare so that’s good

[@Ale-yu9du]

How’s it go

[@Artistic_Bunny]

I'm new to longboarding just bought my cruiser off Amazon. I can't wait to try it out 😁

[@Theleaver5088]

I'd not recommend buying a long board off amazon

[@gaptoothspongebob5145]

[@SO-ym3zs]

There's a middle ground: 32" or 33" drop-through longboards. Small, relatively light and maneuverable, with the extra-big wheels typical of longboards. No kick tail for tricks or kick turns, but that's a tiny price to pay for something small, fast, comfortable, and that can go over most terrain easily.

[@LarsLarsen77]

That's what I use. I neeeeeed big 120mm wheels to survive the wasteland that is the california road network. They don't repave at all they just steal the money.

[@SO-ym3zs]

@@LarsLarsen77 Big, soft wheels are your friend. They give you a fighting chance to go over rough roads, and on smooth surfaces, they just fly.

[@johnlowe-tq6ey]

Entertaining.......great .......TV needs you.

[@sebgoodm]

I get my dinghy tomorrow I am hype, coffin kitty!

[@MisanthropicalSilent]

Epic! I'm total beginner, got my LY longboard a month ago and its so fun. Hope ur balance is good To enjoy a bit smaller board.

[@goreyboggs]

You will love it! I have 4 boards, I ride the Dingy most. Tighten the trucks a bit & let r rip!!

[@maxjarvela4255]

Heck yeah! Ive had my kitty for a month, a tip is to flip the front washer and have the back truck a bit tighter than the front one, makes it turn more in the front and a bit more stable. It made mine feel really good ^^

[@sebgoodm]

@@maxjarvela4255 I just got maths board! It’s really good and smooth! I tightened the back truncks tighter and like u said it carves really well! What do you mean about the washer though?

[@mauerderbauer3401]

That was brave of you doing this trick beside the car 😂

[@nickjohnson9368]

I'm just out here chillin

Yessir nother og flame vid😈

change 2x playback speed, and see og dancing

[@TrentAP]

Hi Ogden. Just started boarding and I’m really loving it. You’ve helped me a ton so thanks for that. But I was wondering about an issue I’m having with my board. My board is really hard to pop up. The nose and tail are completely flat. Is there a workaround to this, something I can attach to make it easy to pop or do I gotta get a new board? I’ve got a drop deck but idk if that makes a difference. Anything would be helpful. Love the vids man!!

[@epr8974]

I can see why you like longboard tricks, because towards the end there you definitely started dancing.

[@animalfinatic9366]

Those Longboards look great!!

[@frxst2997]

Hey I have a question is a drop through good for downhill and does loose trucks or tight trucks fo faster

[@lightningturnip4724]

Drop thru deck is lower to the ground and feels more stable, I prefer them to a top mount. Truck tightness won’t really effect speed but it will affect stability, at higher speeds you may want your trucks tighter, to reduce dem wobbles

[@henrykevincueto9307]

Another great video!

[@AP-wu1rv]

I might get a longboard from LandYatchz that’s where I got my cruiser

[@queeny5613]

I'm in England and rain is juts now accepted

[@IsaacFlores-ou2rc]

A longboard can do anything, it's all in the trucks.

[@moonliteX]

i prefer double drops with really turny trucks

[@noahramos1768]

I thought u were gonna do a year review on the bike backpack...?

[@OgdenSikel]

I am! Will be coming soon

[@isaiahbrewer8980]

I’m getting my dingy tomorrow

[@sugarglider5093]

Hey uh I can't afford a dinghy but I want a cruiser board is there any other recommendations you have that are like $60-80

[@OgdenSikel]

Check out my older video on the San view 28” cruiser, maybe that will be of interest?

[@sugarglider5093]

@@OgdenSikel tysmmm

[@IsaacFlores-ou2rc]

Cruisers are really a awful unless you're doing bowl skating. They have no room to do fun stuff, they're uncomfortable compared to longboards and they can't go high speeds. The only reason you should get a cruiser is if you're riding bowls. Plus longboards can do slides easier.

[@michaelhamill156]

Untrue - I've been rocking a LY Dinghy for the past two years and it's just a totally different experience to my Drop Hammer. For example, the kicktail of a cruiser just gives it a whole different dimension of maneuverability (kickturns) plus the small size allows for easier sliding/pumping/other techniques at lower speeds. I love both my boards equally for different reasons.

[@IsaacFlores-ou2rc]

@@michaelhamill156 the height of a cruiser makes it very grippy and makes it harder to slide, and they're easy to topple over. Of course you can master anything through trial and error, but when it comes down to it longboards are better for everything. For a cruiser replacement I would recommend the loaded omakase because the tail is fun to play with, and the size is very comfortable. No hate but I just don't really like cruisers lol.

[@animalfinatic9366]

@@IsaacFlores-ou2rc Longboards aren't better for "everything", there's different boards for a reason. Skateboards are tailored for extreme tricks, longboards are good for smooth roads traveling long distance, and cruisers are meant.....to well, cruise, hence cruiserboard. So unless you intend to compare apples and oranges, it all comes down to the person and what they want.

[@NeaLopezProductions]

so longboards are better for beginners, but cruisers are better for college campus.... im a beginner (as in ive never had one, rly, never could skate) looking for something for college campus (im a freshmen next semester) SOOO im kinda right in the middle there bro idk what to do lmao

[@omarouaidat739]

Same here, tell me when you get to know :)

[@CrazyGordon]

Get the tug boat

[@LarsLarsen77]

DB Mini Cooper 33 or Landyachts Ripper if you want a kick tail

[@AdamLorens]

Thx

[@QuartzTech]

wassup man

[@OgdenSikel]

How u doin

[@RandoManFPV]

Whichever you can do a kickflip on is the one you want Skaters have been doing kickflips wrong forever, they don't be landing their feet on the board before the board hits the ground Skaters need to STOP THIS 😡

This is…actually facts
