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

    Might not be quite what you’re looking for but Omen’s top mount bamboo longboards have a bit of a kick at each end. Definitely not shaped like a traditional skateboard but they are symmetrical and make a good commuter board. I ride mine once in a while when I’m not riding a bike or driving to work.
