I personally longboard, and I love every second of it. I ride a 46" Arbor Pintail Koa, or as my buddies call it "Pink Papa Bear"
The reason its known as the Pink Papa Bear, is I ride Randal trucks, but I ride the limited edition pink breast cancer edition trucks. Some of the proceeds go to breast cancer research, and since a close family member has had it, I thought it was appropriate.
My wheels are Abec 11 Gumballs. I love them, they're amazing for sliding and carving. Since I'm mostly into sliding/dancing they work wonders.
Here's some amazing videos for you guys to feast on that show longboarding in its wonderful style and flow.

That's tight. I used to skateboard way back in the day, but longboarding is just so much more peaceful. Idk it's not for everyone though.

i used to skateboard a few years back, dunno why i stopped but i just did. i think it had to do with WoW. but there is a skate shop near my house that is pretty sick, they make their own decks and have a mini ramp in the building that you can go skate on whenever you like. i bought one of their decks about 2 years ago i think, still havnt used it though here is their site http://hgskate.ca/ i also got a friend named simon richards who is in university in toronto, he skates alot and he's pretty damn good, here are some videos he's in
hes the one at 0:24 who falls on his ass Edit: nvm he wasnt in the second one, it was just his friends
now here are some homegrown videos

Ben, I remember when you had a quarter pipe in your drive-way when you and simon both skated a bunch.

Most decent skateshops have them. Trucks and everything for a decent board goes for around 200.

You bearing's should work, but my local skate shop goes ahead and installs abec 7's in their longboard decks without charging you.

I would just wait to get one in OKC. I know a great local skate shop in Edmond. It's called Flip'd.
