Yeah, I might have to just adjust to longboards I guess. Was hoping for more of a direct translation of skateboarding skills, but that's probably a little unrealistic.

To each their own I guess, I love it for the crazy amount of things it can do. Steep learning curve though.

I actually ended up becoming blind to Freddy because of how profoundly useless it was: Permanently blocked the webpage elements that showed it from my browser lol. I think Fresh since gave up.

Don't get me wrong, the rest of the service is actually pretty great and I'd recommend Fresh to anyone in search of a decent ticketing system. Freddy sucks though.

Sure, as long as it's not the same website every time.

Just don't spam and you'll be fine, reddit sucks and their broken-ass ban system is regularly abused by bots. They know and don't give a fuck about fixing it.

Yeah, I have an oldschool cruiser with risers already but I was looking for something a little longer and with biggerer wheels.

Also, the oldschool board is from the late 80s and is semi-retired. Landyachtz seems to have some interesting offerings.

It's all about being able to say, "Look, we have AI!"

Yep, we already wrote out all the documentation for everything too so it's doubly useless lol. It sucked at pulling relevant KB articles too even though there are fields for everything. A written script for it would have been trivial to make if they wanted to make something helpful, but they really just wanted to get on that AI hype train regardless of usefulness.

Looking like they were doing something with AI, no joke.

One example was "Freddy", an AI for a ticketing system called Freshdesk: It would try to suggest other tickets it thought were related or helpful but they were, not one fucking time, related or helpful.

Alright longboarders: I know you're out there and I need your advice. (fedia.io)
 

I have a decent amount of experience with traditional skateboarding and want to get into longboarding. I am looking for a symmetrical longboard with kicks, preferably shaped like a traditional skateboard.

What do you think would be a good choice? This would be primarily for commute, cruising, and maybe some mellow carving.

Not really looking to do tricks, but after riding my friend's longboard I immediately missed the kicks for pivoting quickly just getting around.

Looking for a longboard that's like a giant symmetrical skateboard or close to it. (fedia.io)

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

Bonded-ti ebike brings monocoque looks to fitness riding and commuting (newatlas.com)
 

Let's be honest … general-use ebikes are often pretty clunky, with their utilitarian welded aluminum construction. The limited-edition "monocoque-look" Avian definitely bucks that trend, as it sports what is claimed to be the world's lightest titanium ebike-specific frame.
