I grew up skateboarding on the east coast and always loved it until I got into more traditional sports like Hockey and Soccer. And I have surfed and snowboarded my entire adult life. My army career has taken me to OK where there is very little Snow or Surf so on a whim I decided to try out longboarding. Its a more traditional type of skateboarding that uses a longer board because you do not really focus on freestyle type tricks, more to do with just cruising around and bombing hills. Since I picked up my first longboard from Flexdex a couple months ago and I have become obsessed, going out every night after work. I just picked up a hand made wooden board from this guy called longboard Larry. Beautiful stuff.

Anyone else ever get into this hobby? Brings back a lot of old memories from when I was a kid watching the Powell Bones Brigade videos.
