ive never skated before though,so i have no idea what to buy, etc. I just want one for cruising around. I rode my friends sector 9 with orangutan wheels it was soo nice.
Well if you want it specifically for cruising I suggest getting a pre-made deck. Look for something that is somewhere around [url=http://www.daddiesboardshop.com/sector9-mosake-longboard.aspx]this board[/url].
The best thing you can do before ordering online is going on Google Maps and search for any skate shops in your area. I know Utility Board Shop carries some longboard gear and they're pretty helpful in telling you what you may need for the board you want. For example my board has 180mm Independent trucks with 75mm wheels from Orangatang. It's good for cruising and tricks if I bother to learn them.
Or you can just wing it and build your own and look cool doing it!

No offense to you, but just seeing this pisses me off beyond belief. I've noticed recently, at least in Michigan, a huge wave of wanna-be teenagers buying long boards. It's as if long boarding has become some sort of new fashion statement. It's ridiculous watching these people acting all cool riding one, and they don't even know how to turn.
But all the more power to you ordering one and getting into the sport. It's a wonderful activity.

well, no not at all. Barely anybody in maryland has one because they're all preppy people who thinks skating is fo scene kids. So that isn't the case. I tried my friends sector 9 and it was MUCH smoother than a normal skateboard and it was actually a lot of fun. Also watching cool videos like these make me want one even more

dude yeah longboarding to class makes everything so much easier. plus listening to music while longboarding just makes the whole ride better.
