It’s super fun. It’s like the Landyachtz ATV Classic. They have wheel wells unlike most popsicle decks to avoid wheelbite so you don’t have to use crazy tall risers with thicc cruiser wheels
Hey, thanks for these reviews! I ended up getting this board over the Dinghy due to the historical role the company has played in being eco friendly, and digging the look of the artist board with grip tape. The quieter marketing approach for comparable boards was also a bonus in my eyes. First board at age 30, so a portable deck with a smooth, but nimble ride was the priority. I got no need for tricking ability beyond the occasional ollie onto a curb, and Ive read this board can handle that just fine.
I've got a couple of Arbor boards: the Double Drop Picture, and the bamboo fish pintail. Agree about the wheels, they're great boards for getting from A to B, but some modding is required if you want to get spicy with it
I have Arbour's pintail board from this same bamboo design line. It's actually my first board, and I was discouraged from getting it as a starter board at first but I'm actually really glad I did! It's harder to balance on than a drop through, but the carviness is a huge payoff.
I have the Arbor pocket rocket. It has the exact same wheels and I love them. Very comfortable and can handle almost any rough surface! I also have the LY ATV and the ride is not as comfortable as the pocket rocket.
Definitely on the way. After we buy and review a few more cruisers, we'll put together a long video going over the best of the best, comparing them all
I’m not a fan of the spray on grip arbor uses but I like that it’s not directly competing with the dinghy having a higher centre of gravity and stickier wheels for a completely different ride style.
This is exactly the board I bought as Dinghy was not available at the same price range at my location. My downside is precisely the wheels. They do ride smooth, but also too sticky! Nice vid bro, as usual
Great video as always! I have both the Pilsner (bamboo same as reviewed) and the classic Dinghy. I also prefer the Dinghy, but my girlfriend prefers the Pilsner. They are pretty similar cruisers, but the nimbleness and look of the 105 mm trucks with the beefier Hawgs wheels gives the edge to the Dinghy. Then again, the Dinghy Blunt with the 130 mm trucks and slightly larger deck should be even more similar to the Pilsner.
@@concrete-waves hey speaking of which, I've got a pretty easy video idea. Probably don't even need to buy anything. I was wondering if you could talk about how bushings work and what types and durometers you should use for different board setups. I've already done my research and figured out the problem I was having, but it would have been great to know about the correlation between weight and bushing durometer before I got wheel bite and completely ate it on my new board lol. Turns out, super squishy bushings don't work for a 260 lb guy 😂.
I've got an Arbor Axis 40 and I absolutely love it, the wheels definitely will slide after you break them in a bit. The only problem is that the grip they use comes right off after some harder riding, so it's probably good to have some spray-on grip on hand if you get one. Beautiful boards, though!
This is awesome insight. Thanks for sharing. There have been a few others that mentioned the grip wearing off quick. Seems to be a problem with spray-on grip
I hope the wheels break in soon cause I literally have up on trying to do any reverts or speed checks so I been just bombing full speed 🚄 straight down hills and it's getting a little sketchy doing that instead of zig zagging and really enjoying the ride
This is an interesting board man! I just got the ATV Dinghy Ditch Life (Night Fox) and dang…… fast and nimble- been busting my A hahaha I’m coming from the Drop Hammer. Freggin love that board man. Digging these shorter cruisers more and more and I like how companies are allowing the market to open up on these. Means more fore us hah. Dope video- much love from Tejas.
Great review as always. It might be worth pointing out that a lot of Arbor boards also have variants with conventional griptape. The Pilsners with the 'Photo' or Artist deck art for example have regular griptape. Not everyone appreciates the spray on grip. Looks great, but doesn't always last as long.
Really solid insight. Thanks for this. I noticed quite a few people already complained to me about their spray-on grip wearing off. So if anyone is reading this, I'd recommend going for the models with traditional griptape
Thank you so much for making these reviews! I was going to ask how it compares to the Landyachtz Tugboat but then I found the Arbor Oso and now I realize that I’m more curious how that Arbor cruiser compares to the Tugboat. You mentioned in (I think?) your Tugboat review that you got an Oso - is a review for that still on the horizon? :)
Happy to help, thanks for watching! Both Landyachtz and Arbor are solid brands you can't really go wrong with. The Oso review is coming, but probably won't be for a few more weeks. The main difference is the deck width. The Oso is 1" wider (10") compared to the Tugboat (9"). Personally I like a wider deck since it's easier to carve/ balance on, but it's all personal preference
@@concrete-waves Awesome, thank you so much! I’m leaning towards the Arbor Oso after hearing that - I wish there were more Oso reviews out there, but it seems like they’re both great bigger cruiser boards and I’d be happy with whichever I end up going with.
@@LaurenFairwx Yup, they're both solid. If you're not looking to do tricks and just cruise, I'd definitely go for the Oso for that extra deck width. It'll be much more enjoyable to ride
Idk if you will see this but if you do I’d love to see a Tan Tien review and I think it would especially good because I think you said in a video you have had it for 8 years and I’m interested in a new longboard Much love my guy
2 weeks inbetween uploads? We need more content. I'm not usually for vlog/filler content, but I think you guys could pull off some fun personality driven stuff. Low editing needed work for extra engagement and brand building. Shredding/Hanging with Billy and the Bros.
Cools thanks for the suggestions. Definitely want to do more personality-driven stuff. Just tough to do it consistently since we all have different schedules. But it's in the future!
@@concrete-waves I have 2 Boards set up, cleaned, oiled up bearings and new bushings, and when i finish my last exam for this semester on monday... Damn right i will!
I’m looking at getting a cruiser to ride instead of my street board. I’m looking to do more riding than tricks. I’m trying to decide between the Pilsner and the oso. What would you recommend?
I was deciding between the Pilsner or Pocket Rocket to review because they're very similar. I think it's safe to say the Pocket Rocket has similar components but is just overall smaller (trucks, deck width, length, wheelbase)
Great channel! Started skateboarding pools/parks&ramps in the mid-70s then stopped after high school until taking an interest in longboarding recently and I replaced the old 1970's Tracker Mid-Track trucks and green Kryptonic 70mm pool/park wheels on my 1977 Alva Original #1 with 180mm Paris V3's and Blood Orange Liam Morgan 65mm 80A wheels. That deck is INDESTRUCTIBLE, 7-Ply Hard Rock Maple and it's almost 30x8", so why not convert it into a cruiser? *I also have an original Z-Flex Jay Adams 'fiberglass/aluminum honeycomb rib' deck too. It weighs a ton. lol Keep up the good work and have fun! *Liked&Subscribed
The spray-on grip will wear out significantly faster than normal grip tape. But given it is a cruiser board not meant for tricks, I don't feel I am missing/needing the extra grippiness.
Don't know if you still need it answered, but I put 63mm Fatty Hawgs on my Pilsner and I haven't gotten any wheelbite. I also ride the trucks semi-loosened, so it should do you good. Best of luck!
Hey, very thankful for your helping and great videos! I´m not a native english speaker, so what does "wheels with stone grounded contact patches" mean? I would appreciate a short answer!
I have an answer to a question how does it feel at high speed or speed wobbles. It feels pretty bad, especially dealing with a broken clavicle afterward🤣
Any recommendations for arbor replacement wheels for learning speed checks on a cruiser or longboard? I have the sizzler & Axis. Both sets of wheels are grippy like your pilsner video.
At this moment I have a Penny Nickel board and want to buy the Arbor Pilsner. Will it be an good upgrade? Do the wheels roll better than the Nickel board? I just want to cruise on it and have a comfortable ride (no tricks). Or do you recommend another cruiser from this size?
They're very similar... the Pocket Rocket has similar components but is just overall smaller (trucks, deck width, length, wheelbase). Prob won't do a separate review for it since it's so similar
Over here, i can get the dinghy for 200€, whilst i can get one of the Arbor Pilsner Boards for around 130-150€. I'm thinking of just getting the Pilsner and getting some decent wheels with, and then from the remaining budget get a T-Tool. Any input if that would be a decent choice, or other ideas?
Hello. Sorry for my english. How about the Madrid chroma grub 29? This board is 45 euros less expensive than the pilsner and seems like similary. I am 5'6 tall and my shoes 10,5. Do i buy pilsner ? Dinghy blunt? Or Madrid chroma grub 29?
Any suggestion for me that I just want to casually cruise and learn to carve and maybe learn to do a little bit powerslide and have a possibility to do an ollie on (not a must)? I was checking the dinghy series but I just had no idea what the small difference between different dinghy models is.
All Dinghy models are similar and share the shape of the deck. The biggest difference is the width of the board, the width of the trucks and the diameter and wide of the wheels. - The Dinghy Classic is 8" wide, it has 105mm Polar Trucks and 63mm Fatty Hawgs wheels, 50mm wide. - The Dinghy Blunt is 8.6" wide, it has 130mm Polar Trucks and 60mm Chubby Hawgs wheels, 45 mm wide. - The Dinghy Turbo is like the Classic but has wheel flares that for more clearance and allow it to carry 72mm Plow King wheels, 62mm wide. - There are also variants of the Classic that share 105 trucks and 63mm wheels like the Dinghy Coffin, a little wider in the center and the Shape 9. All wheels are 78a durometer and stone ground finish for better an easyer slides.
@@ibonvicenteprieto3629 this is so detailed thanks!!! I don't understand why the Dinghy Blunt has wider trucks but smaller wheels? which one theoretically rides more stable? I have shoes size 44 should I just go for the biggest one?
@@wanchiz With your shoe size I would definitely go to the Dinghy Blunt. It is more stable and you have more space to place your feet comfortably. The Dinghy Blunt has smaller wheels because it is wider and has the same truck height as the Dinghy Classic, with 63 mm wheels you would have more possibility of wheelbite. There is also a version of the Dinghy Blunt, called Blunt Fender Paper Tiger that has wheel flares and even with the 130 mm trucks you can use 65 mm wheels or more.
What do you think about buying a surfskate (hamboard logger specifcally) for someone who's never surfed or skated before? I wanna get into it and surfskates really caught my eye but I don't understand how beginner friendly they are.
It's going to be a tough learning curve on the Hamboards HST200 trucks since they carve very aggressively. Is it possible to learn? Absolutely, but it's going to be challenging especially if you've never skated before. I put together an article that goes over the top surfskate brands that I think will be helpful for you - shredshack.com/surfskate/ I would probably suggest you checking out Carver skateboards. Those are a nice balance of carvey but offer more stability compared to most other surfskate brands. If you need any more help let me know (email, IG dm or here)
Hey, that's awesome! And yup, Arbor is a solid brand. You'll get a board that has good components with Arbor. Other brands you might wanna consider would be Landyachtz, Sector 9, Globe
Thanks for sticking around and supporting Austin. Appreciate it man. Both Arbor and Sector 9 are decent quality boards, so either would be fine. But if you want me to check out a specific board, drop a link or dm on IG. I'll help you out as much as I can
Classic dinghy decks are like 55-60 n then I think the turbo has fiberglass n is 90 USD for jus the deck n most take the same size trucks I love my classic it's the first top mount I've tried sliding n yesterday I put in a 20 ft heelside on stock bears with blood orange smokes grab a dinghy!
@@concrete-waves awwwww ❤ thank you bro love yo vids man and since my dinghy is the only topmount i have rn its my sliding board and you learn to lean and crouch for sure but i even got some white thanes today on it and some road rash
The Pilsner was my first board bought one year ago, never tried the Dinghy so I cannot make a real comparison. The technical differences seem trivial and it's a just a cruiser guys, don't ask for surfskate adapters and tricks. The wheels are quite criticized in the video but are the things I love more for their grippiness, color and expecially the sound they make when they roll and bounce. Also never liked the Dinghy graphics, too street-oriented while the Pilsner exudates the vibe I want for a board to cruise around chilling (I own a Photo Collection and the one chosen for this video is the ugliest one in my opinion). Thanks for you attention.
Can you make a video about longboard or cruiser wheels on a traditional skateboard.
This is a great idea
get a riser and put cruiser wheels and done. feels a bit tall but pretty good
I like this idea!
This is a really solid idea. Def on the list

Comet cruiser is high on the list. Definitely will do a review of it
Got my dinghy UV Blunt last week and glad I did over this just cause I do like my wheels and bearings. Plus the little wider deck
I've got a couple of Arbor boards: the Double Drop Picture, and the bamboo fish pintail. Agree about the wheels, they're great boards for getting from A to B, but some modding is required if you want to get spicy with it

With your shoe size I would definitely go to the Dinghy Blunt. It is more stable and you have more space to place your feet comfortably.

What do you think about buying a surfskate (hamboard logger specifcally) for someone who's never surfed or skated before? I wanna get into it and surfskates really caught my eye but I don't understand how beginner friendly they are.
It's going to be a tough learning curve on the Hamboards HST200 trucks since they carve very aggressively. Is it possible to learn? Absolutely, but it's going to be challenging especially if you've never skated before. I put together an article that goes over the top surfskate brands that I think will be helpful for you - shredshack.com/surfskate/
I would probably suggest you checking out Carver skateboards. Those are a nice balance of carvey but offer more stability compared to most other surfskate brands.
If you need any more help let me know (email, IG dm or here)
@@concrete-waves I'll check both out. Thanks!
Hi! I’m going to buy my first longboard! And In general is Arbor a good brand? I wanna make sure I don’t waste my money I just wanna cruise.
Hey, that's awesome! And yup, Arbor is a solid brand. You'll get a board that has good components with Arbor. Other brands you might wanna consider would be Landyachtz, Sector 9, Globe
@@concrete-waves ok thank you!
this was great, for a cruiser, how would you compare it to a sector 9 pintail?
Thanks for sticking around and supporting Austin. Appreciate it man. Both Arbor and Sector 9 are decent quality boards, so either would be fine. But if you want me to check out a specific board, drop a link or dm on IG. I'll help you out as much as I can
@@concrete-waves thanks bro
Classic dinghy decks are like 55-60 n then I think the turbo has fiberglass n is 90 USD for jus the deck n most take the same size trucks I love my classic it's the first top mount I've tried sliding n yesterday I put in a 20 ft heelside on stock bears with blood orange smokes grab a dinghy!
Dude 20ft heelside?! That's super impressive haha
@@concrete-waves awwwww ❤ thank you bro love yo vids man and since my dinghy is the only topmount i have rn its my sliding board and you learn to lean and crouch for sure but i even got some white thanes today on it and some road rash
The Pilsner was my first board bought one year ago, never tried the Dinghy so I cannot make a real comparison. The technical differences seem trivial and it's a just a cruiser guys, don't ask for surfskate adapters and tricks. The wheels are quite criticized in the video but are the things I love more for their grippiness, color and expecially the sound they make when they roll and bounce. Also never liked the Dinghy graphics, too street-oriented while the Pilsner exudates the vibe I want for a board to cruise around chilling (I own a Photo Collection and the one chosen for this video is the ugliest one in my opinion). Thanks for you attention.
How is tugboat with surf skate adapter?
I briefly cover that in the Tugboat review video - ruclips.net/video/Ic1ySjH47HE/видео.html

Is it better to switch the wheels with dinghy?
Depends on your preference, but I would
Is it that same shape as the loaded coyote
The Coyote is longer (30.75") and slightly wider (8.375")
Similar shape though. But the Coyote also has wheel wells that aren't grounded into the deck
@@concrete-waves thanks I was thinking about getting this bored and I love my loaded coyote
Nice & Thanks :)
Thanks Krishnan. Always stoked to see a comment from ya. Thanks for sticking around
@@concrete-waves Shred shack team is awesome & Kind :) Pleasure is all mine :)
What’s a stone grounded contact patch? For wheels
A wheel that does not have a shiny finish to it
Yup, what @D. P. L said. They basically sand down the contact patches of the wheels making it easier to slide without having to break them in
hey! great vid!
Hey thanks Madison. Appreciate that!
Looks like you need a durometert
To be honest. I watched many of your videos. Think you care and talk too much about the built-in spacers. Not a big deal at all
I swap out wheels and take a lot of boards apart. They’re a game changer in my opinion. From a riding perspective, they don’t really matter though
Awesome vid
Ayy thanks Rajesh! Appreciate you watching and dropping a comment
I'm not digging the look of the board. those Paris truck are about 1/4" taller too, so you're higher off the ground.
Ahhh you're totally right. Should've mentioned that. I agree though, I'm not a huge fan of the look compared to other cruisers.
Oooo great video
Thanks as always! Really appreciate you sticking around and showing support
Damg i bought this board …..
Hey I actually have this one haha
Nice! How long have you had it and how do you like it?
next time globe blazer?
Yup, got the Globe Big Blazer, Comet Cruiser, and a Sector 9 cruiser on the list. Any other recommendations?
First I think
Appreciate it bro!
