Compared to your typical street skateboards, also known as shortboards, longboards such as this 41-inch one, are great for both beginners and pros to skate with due to the comfort they offer. They are also wider, offering more stability and balance, which is important when speeding down hills.
Equipped with bigger and softer wheels, they are faster and offers better comfort when riding for long durations. All of these give longboards the edge for cruising as they absorb more shock from rough surfaces such as tar roads. This is a particular life-saver on the knees when cruising for long distances.
Costing quite little, it is a tiny penny to pay for your child's first taste of the skateboarding. Suitable for ages 6 to 13 years old, it also comes in either a spiderman and iron man print, depending on their favourite super hero.
