> CASUAL BOARD??
im new to skating, soi dont know whats good and whats not. so i was wondering is there any cheap complete boards that are good for just skating, no tricks. i dont want to spend much because im not going to be using it everday. Any help?
cruiser boards are pretty good for chillin but expensive, you can buy some second hand parts off people to make a complete setup, i.e me if your in melbs
Get a regular board.
That way, you can start messing around with tricks if you want. Before you know it, you'll be skating properly and loving it.
Cruiser boards and longboards look stupid. You can 'cruise' on a regular board too!
Go to your local big skatepark and ask the best skaters there. They'll probably sell you some cheap stuff (courtesy of their sponsors).
no cruiser board and long boards have wheels that are actually conducive to a smooth fast ride unlike the usual rock hard 53mm wheels on your average board, try bombing a decent hill on both then start talking about it.
If you dunno what you're doing, then you may find a long board might pick up a little too much speed for a beginner going down anything more than a mellow hill. Get a normal board with some bigger wheels. I reckon.

Buy a nice and wide board, some reasonable profile trucks, and some mid size wheels.
I'd buy a scooter. Not only are they fun, you can fold them up and put them in the boot of your car.
AWESUM!
skateboards can fit in boots too
you don't even need to fold them up
you also don't look homo whilst on one
