Lately a lot of rich teenagers from the suburbs are coming into West Side Skates for a longboard setup . These kids buy the best , including Powell Ceramic bearings , Orangutang Yellow wheels , Original Trucks , Loaded Dervish decks , etc..
I only have one problem with longboards...the people buying them are not skaters , nor have they ever set foot on a deck , and think they're gonna " Bomb Hills " . Lame .
To me a longboard is just another skateboard , one I don't ride but don't hate . Besides Being 33 , I'd look like fucking Skatemaster Tate on one . :lol:
