What is longboarding?


For those who may not know, longboarding is a sport derived from skateboarding, but has a different range of things you can do. Like the name suggest, longboards are longer skateboards, meaning you can go faster easier, and I believe its way more fun than just skateboarding.


In skateboarding, your main goal might be doing tricks at the park or on the street, or simply get from point A to point B. 

However, in longboarding, there are many more things you can do. It can be cruising, racing at 30 mph down a hill, or practicing sliding.

Longboarding is a popular sport all around the world, and the longboarding community is diverse, including ages from young children to some in their later years. 

Ever since I got my first longboard, it has been one of my favorite hobbies, and I go out and longboard with my siblings on my free time. I love the thrill, and I compare it to flying, except on the ground.
