I want to get a longboard for cruising that's basically just a giant skateboard so I can transfer my existing skateboarding skills to a longboard.

Something with big wheels that would make a decent commuter would be ideal.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Edit: Thanks everyone! I think I'm going to go with the Arbor Shakedown. Going to keep this up in case others have suggestions for people in the future (or maybe I'll need a backup board lol)

Update: Aw shit, I went with the Arbor Shakedown but it's basically a normal sized board. That said, I'm still probably going to keep it because it seems like a pretty nice cruiser. Guess I'll have to pick up a long board some other time.

Feel free to make more suggestions, I'm still in the market lol

34 isn't really a longboard but I like mine, go with that 37 or maybe the Breach Foundation if you don't mind a small nose and want a proper longboard. Maybe a Landyachtz Coffin XL?

Yeah I found out the hard way but I like it too much to return it. Maybe I'll buy the 37 or something else later on.
