The skateboard is no longer restricted to youngsters doing tricks on street corners, many older riders use them for commuting to work or moving around campus when at college. The reason why many people choose a longboard skateboard over a bike is that it is more portable (it will fit inside a car) and is easily carried indoors at home, college or place of work. This reduces the prospect of the mode of transport being stolen.
The “40 inch Maple Longboard” from Volador is an ideal choice for a beginner of any age!
