Lowrider VS. Dropdown Longboard (Differences in shape, cruising style and more)

Our lowrider and dropdowns are our best selling longboards, and for good reason. This video will break down the differences for each shape and what works best for you.

The benefits of these kinds of longboards is that you know exactly where your feet should be without even looking down because you can feel the bumps in the front and rear. Also peddling is easier because the ground is closer. The stability in turns are also improved because of a lower center of gravity. The only downside is that the bottom of the deck might scrape more over speed bumps or if you put too much weight in the center of the deck as you peddle because it will flex more if you stand in the middle part of the board.

during mid covid 2020 i was riding my favorite board, a lowrider, and i hit this nasty sidewalk bump that was higher than expected. Threw me forward and broke the front end off the board. Lowrider boards just hit me in such a way. I couldn't find that exact replacement board as the company that made it fizzled out maybe a year prior (go figure the time I found the board). Something about how it turned, the speed, it just felt so good. And what this board did that others keep doing and it annoys me was it was just flat. No special curves or ridges, just a flat board to stand on. It was comfy for my bigger feet.

I've been riding your lowrider for two years, I absolutely love it. The concave is super comfortable and it's much faster than my top deck, even drop downs or drop throughs. This board cruises at 12.5 mph flat ground NO EFFORT (pushing once every 10+ seconds), and can reach up to 24-25 mph flat ground due to how easy it is to push in quick succession. I'm very confident that someone could hit 30+ on flat ground with this thing. It's insane. It's absurdly stable too, I've literally never wobbled, so it's FANTASTIC for high speed long distance travel, but the turn radius is outright bad I'm afraid. Like, school bus bad. But that's a welcome tradeoff for the ludicrous speed and unrivaled stability, and the turns can be assisted by kicking out your back wheels to tighten your turns even at low speeds, so it's almost a non issue. That's how you cheat the bad steering on this thing, I ride 76mm 78a, and the back easily swings out to help you with corners while the front wheels tend to pivot in place more. I actually drift/slide like this more than I turn normally even while cruising. Mastering this is necessary for urban transport as you cannot rely on the Board's default turn radius. It can barely make 90° sidewalk turns without kicking the back wheels outward for assistance TLDR: SPEED 9, STABILITY 10, TURNING 3 (but can be cheated up to a 5)

What’s the name of the modell?

[@GT-Rev]

@@JDLFitnesss it's officially called the Yocaher Lowrider, but the type of board that it is, is called a "Double Drop"

[@JDLFitnesss]

@@GT-Rev thank you man!

[@outofsight...]

I have a board like this, but has a 2" drop

[@outofsight...]

You will get wheel bite the lower your truck angle gets.

[@Tyrannical_Teabagger]

Looking at buying a board to ride with my daughters to the park. Haven’t rode in years and this helped me a lot. Thank you. And send all the prayers and good wishes you can, I’m sure I’ll need it. 😂

[@danielhagans4304]

Bro I’m 35 and I’m looking for the same reason 👊🏻

[@Christopherjamesmurphy21]

​@danielhagans4304 33 yup kids go5 boards for easter. Good dads here fellas well done.

[@ultimobert]

Here 33 aswell, drop through for me xD kids to the skatepark and me cruising with them

[@SHDANK]

Praying now

[@bmx-rk5bs]

The low rider is my favorite LDP deck. Im 6'4", its plenty of room. I use paris tkp trucks and torque boards 110mm wheels. Its perfect! Low low and no wheel bite.

[@irvingcadena8638]

I recently buy a lowrider and don't know it, cause there's no much info about it, i tested it for a few days and i love it, my only complain is that i already scratch the graphics because how low it is 😂 i'm thinking about swap the 70mm wheels for a 100mm

[@borisnum904]

Nice video

[@Iliusblacck]

Hello Can I make track cutouts on the board myself? Using this video as an example, turn a Lowrider into a Dropdown. It seems to me that the tree must endure. Привет могу ли я сам сделать на доске прорези для траков? На примере этого видео, превратить Lowrider в Dropdown. Мне кажется дерево должно выдержать.

[@fictionalreality1010]

Bravo 👏

[@kylewattssurfing3266]

Coooooooool!!!!! LET'S GO "IE" SB CO..... COOOL BOARDS!!!!! MUCH SUCCESS!!!!!

[@eBoard3R]

🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@NeoVdV]

Can you use one of these as a surfskate - with Carver CX trucks ?

[@Dkhanofkhans]

they work great with the waterborne surf adapter and rail I have the dropdown you can get some good speed ,they do feel more like a snowboard because of how your feet lock on the edges but they work great.

[@DanielKwan]

Lowrider = double drop?

[@Sara-bm7vx]

Still works though

[@bjorn7187]

unfortunately the lowrider is not for sale in the europe / Netherlands. when are you selling these outside the USA?

[@YOCAHERSKATEBOARDS]

We might have a few sellers on Among and Ebay. Have you tried those? But as far as directly from our website, we're still working on opening it to international shipments. Currently, the clients / shipping rates are pretty crazy! But we'll keep everyone posted for any updates.

[@jrpondoc1715]

Spare me some Decks 😍

[@YOCAHERSKATEBOARDS]

We'd be out of business if we did that lol

[@justendorsey9520]

It doesn't look to me like the lowrider actually sits alf an inch lower, you just have half inch risers on the drop down longboard. If there the same hight without the risers I'd get the dropdown for the deeper pockets

[@erichodgson1020]

Bought my first lomgboard today. Had the option of lowrider or drop down and I chose drop down. Absolutely love this thing.

[@clubatleticoestrella]

Ponele subtítulos en español. No entendí nada gringooo

😂

[@Orcastruck]

Im broke send me some wood chikfe

[@YOCAHERSKATEBOARDS]

Lol welcome to the club

[@Sara-bm7vx]

Now try dancing on this shit it is all I have.. haha so yeah seems like low tide dancing is gangster and the coolest thing ever.. psyche

[@outofsight...]

Ive tried. Its kind of difficult tbh.

[@Sara-bm7vx]

@@outofsight... I do it, don’t have a freestyle anymore I gave it away… but I did it because lots of people give me boards and it’s actually kind of fun to learn to adapt my dancing to any kind of longboard. I feel like I am on fashion runway and the host is telling me to “make it work”

[@outofsight...]

@@Sara-bm7vx i have size 14/15 shoes on a 9.75 wide deck. Cross steps and peter pans and ghostride kickflips are difficult for me.😅

[@Sara-bm7vx]

@@outofsight... I am not even that far, my dude I didn’t start learning until I was 28. I turn 38 on the 17th, I have had to deal with a lot of family and people kind of thinking it’s strange to want to do something like that so ardently at my age, but this seems to be my life with most stuff I decide to do. Meh. The heart wants what it wants? They may diminish my childlike wonder down to a spark but that is still enough to refuel a flame to take on the world.

[@Sara-bm7vx]

@@outofsight... I mean not to actually burn the world literally it’s metaphorical destruction like hey your age and how you feel about it is the hugest difference in how your body functions. We are not phones or products made to break so easy and be replaced, we are humans and despite what people think evolution is suppose to happen no devolution our bodies regenerate to a certain extent we are a biological system, we evolve and adapt and survive, the only things that holds away from that is when we are told and believe that isn’t the truth for us…. Okay wait got to down a rabbit hole. Uhhh longboard or bust! Byeeee
