Understanding Complete Longboards

A complete longboard is a longboard skateboard that is fully assembled. It comes with a deck, trucks, wheels, bearings, and grip tape—all combined by experts for optimal performance and balance. There's no need for you to assemble the longboard yourself. Simply select a complete longboard that excites you, unpack it, and you’re ready to go.

Reasons to Opt for a Complete Longboard

Complete longboards are perfect for novices, but they are also available for seasoned longboarders. They save you both time and guessing as all parts are expertly coordinated for peak performance. No tools, additional components, or any assembly experience are necessary.

Whether obtaining your first longboard or upgrading for a particular style, you'll find a complete longboard tailored to your needs.

In the future, you can enhance or adjust your longboard by adding wheels, trucks, riser pads, and other components you prefer—enabling you to modify the longboard as your skills grow and your tastes change.

Various Longboard Styles Explained

We provide a diverse array of longboards suitable for every type of longboarding. Below is an overview of the most prevalent longboard styles:

Cruising and Carving Longboards

For a surf-like experience on flat terrain or gentle inclines, cruising and carving longboards are ideal. These boards are perfect for commuting, boardwalk outings, or neighbourhood exploration. With reactive trucks and flexible decks, they ensure seamless, fluid manoeuvres.

Freeriding Longboards

Freeride longboards excel in slides, switch manoeuvres, and innovative hill descents, focusing on balance and control at moderate to high speeds. If you’re looking for a longboard that facilitates the learning of slides and combines them with downhill techniques, freeride strikes a perfect compromise.

Downhill Longboards

When it comes to downhill longboards, speed and precision are paramount. These longboards are crafted for stability and control at high speed. They generally feature rigid decks, low centres of gravity, and setups focused on grip. If adrenaline rushes thrill you, this is your ultimate choice.

Dancing Longboards

Dancing longboards are engineered for a combination of footwork, balance, and graceful motion. These longboards boast long decks with ample space for cross-steps, spins, and manuals. Longboard dancing is as much about creativity and expression as it is about rhythm, making it a perfect choice if you’re interested in technical moves and want a platform to cultivate your unique style.

Freestyle Longboards

Freestyle longboards are tailored for tricks, flips, and overall versatility. Characteristically symmetrical with kicktails on both ends—unlike direction-specific designs—these longboards facilitate movement in either direction and blend technical skating with classic longboarding.

Are Longboards Suitable for Beginners?

Longboards undoubtedly offer a beginner-friendly introduction to skateboarding. Thanks to their larger decks and softer wheels, longboards provide enhanced stability and easier control compared to shorter skateboards, aiding the development of balance and comfort on a wheeled board. If you are new to it all, a longboard is a splendid choice for boosting confidence.

Compared to trick-centric skateboards, longboards are generally less agile. A symmetrical popsicle-shape skateboard is more appropriate if you're primarily interested in complex tricks, vert, or street skating. However, for those into cruising but seeking more manoeuvrability than a longboard, consider exploring cruiser skateboards.

Which Longboard is Best for Beginners?

Your initial longboard should offer stability, quick response to turns, and manage rough surfaces efficiently. Most cruising longboards possess exactly these traits. For novices, starting with a high-quality longboard is unnecessary; a well-balanced, affordable longboard will meet your needs admirably, with the option to upgrade parts over time.

Our collection includes many complete longboards that are beginner-friendly. Each configuration is meticulously selected to ensure you start with confidence and control.

Are Longboards a Good Choice for Children?

Indeed, longboards can be an excellent option for children, particularly for those more interested in cruising than practising tricks on a traditional skateboard. Opting for a model designed specifically for children can simplify the choice.

If purchasing a longboard for a young child or beginner, focus on the importance of size and stability. Seek a deck length ranging from 28 to 36 inches, ideal for smaller riders and easier handling.

The Benefits of Buying a Longboard for a Child

Children generally find longboards easier to manage. With larger decks and longer wheelbases, they enable a better sense of balance. Their large, soft wheels efficiently absorb shocks and roll smoothly over minor obstacles—like pebbles or cracks in the pavement—minimising the chance of unexpected falls.

Cruiser skateboards also make a viable option for children who prioritise cruising over perfecting technical tricks. Many cruiser boards embody the smooth and stable characteristics of longboards but in a more compact form. For children with shorter legs, a cruiser can be the ideal compromise.

Lastly, always prioritise safety: ensure that your child wears a helmet and protective gear at all times.
