Hey man, craving a lot of longboard dance x freestyle videos lately. And luckily enough I found your channel. I live in the South East of Asia and its really hard to find good budget set-ups considering its expensive to ship from the US. I have seen your Trucks Video about some knock offs Paris trucks and was surprised having you reviewed it, considering it just a truck that costs 10 bucks here. I will also buy the orangutan bushings along with it. Would love to see a thorough guide on bushings in the future. With just one video I subscribed because of how clear and concrete your reviews are. Good luck with the channel, cheers!
I got my first one, a loaded tan tien, last month and I love it! Exactly what I needed at this time right here :D I broke my ankle a couple years back so balance can be a struggle sometimes, especially being 6'3", but so far the longboard has been a LOT easier to learn than skateboards
Thanks for video! Thanks to your previous video about pumping i finally learned how to do this thing. Actually it's not hard once you understand how it works. But I still make a lot of unnecessary movements and get tired quickly tho. My favorite setup for longboard and cruiser (top mount): Paris trucks: RKP and TKP Wedge front, deWedge back truck via angled riser (i always use button head hardware specifically for angled risers to prevent damaging deck) Front trucks with barrel/cone bushings with cupped washer for more rebound (i use otang knuckles) Back trucks with double barrel with flat washer. This setup carve like crazy while having a lot of stability.
Love your vids man!!! Just discovered this channel and you explain things super well. Love how much you cover too, and I learn concepts that I've never been introduced to as a beginner.
Hi dear, how to determine the nose and tail of a long board, and while loosening the kingpin for more curves,do we have to loosen both nose and tail ? Thanks
Hey Ogden, great videos! Thank you!! As a beginner I got Loaded Dervish Sama prior to watching your videos. The guy sold me a Flex 1 which is for people much heavier people than my 140 lbs self. Wondering what impact that will have on my pumping. Any thoughts?
I have no skateboard experience. 6’6” 285 and thinking about getting a longboard for cruising and a little winding and pumping on the local greenway. Would you recommend any drop/double-drop board made for bigger folks? Beercan boards pop up often in my searches. Do you have any experience with them or have other recommendations?
Hi folks! Please help me make a choice! I'm trying to choose a versatile and fast board that can handle all kinds of terrain and also allows me to do basic tricks like Ollie, kickflip, shuvs and so on. I plan to use it to move around town and do some tricks for fun. What should I choose? Landyahtz Dinghy or ATVX Classic?
Is the 70/30 weight rule just for pushing or should I try to maintain that while carving, etc? In general, do I keep my weight on the front foot while they are both perpendicular to the board?
Question, do you need to loose your trucks first? Longboard trucks are tight to prevent speed wobbles right? And I put all my weight on one side just to turn slightly, do I have to loosen it to pump?
My trucks came very loose and I tightened them a bit because I was wobbling like crazy just to go straight while pushing. Unless you go really fast down hill I keep them loose enough to make a full turn with leaning on your toes and heels. But I'm a beginner not an expert.
question, while pumping are you getting the extra push from your knees or hips? when I carve my legs feel like they do an S motion but no rotation on my ankles.
*Not sure if encourin people to shower on one leg is the best advice* 😂 considerin grip isn't great lol. But yeah in general, practicin balancin on one foot is great, when makin breakfast, when waitin around, etc
Got my first longboard a few months back and have been having a blast. I ride anywhere I can now
I got bought a longboard for my birthday I'm on it now n I'm hooked this video is super helpful! Subbed 👌
@4:23 This is SO true and well worth mentioning - Good on you, Thanks!
These videos came at the right time

I just got my first longboard and I'm addicted! This video was super helpful. Gonna work on that pumping!

Thanks man!!! big fan from Argentina 🙂

Found your channel from r/longboarding
Great vids
Cool, any specifics things for the santa cruz pintail?
1:20 Nice of you to visit Little Prince’s planet for this vid!
Great videos, have learnt a lot watching these! Can you do a video on how to slowdown going downhill by carving on a cruiserboard/longboard?

Really great video series Ogden! Thank you! I think the only part missing is the footbrake :D
How similar is it to riding a casterboard? The motions seem really similar.
Guess I'll find out when it gets warmer.

I’m a complete beginner. Do you think putting fatty hawks on my Dinghy would make it easier to learn and make it easier for city riding?
One more question, do you prefer 150 or 180 mm trucks for carving/pumping? Tnx
I have a drop hammer 36. I was wondering if I put 85mm wheels on it will I get wheel bite??

Probably more from my quads and upper leg muscles, I kinda push down with those to generate force while I’m twisting side to side
Letz gooo
Which set of wheels and bushings do you use??
Keep it real, bro.
Best from brazil.
