About
Longboarding
Longboarding is about movement on a board, not just tricks. With longer boards and smoother setups, it opens up styles like cruising, dance, freestyle and downhill riding.
What is Longboarding?
Longboarding isn’t “skateboarding but easier”. It’s a different style of riding in its own right. While traditional skateboarding often centres around tricks and skateparks, longboarding focuses on flow, movement and travelling across space. It includes everything from relaxed cruising and creative dance and freestyle, to fast downhill riding and freeride slides you might recognise from films like The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
At the same time, longboarding shares the same foundations as skateboarding. You learn how to push, carve, balance and brake, making it a brilliant way to build confidence and get familiar with the basics on a board.
Longboarding Styles & Disciplines
Cruising
Cruising is relaxed, feel‑good longboarding. Gentle carving, smooth rolling and enjoying the ride from A to B. Easy, accessible and perfect for everyday skating.
Pump Track
Pump track riding uses body movement to build speed through rollers and turns, no pushing needed. Fast, playful and brilliant for confidence, balance and flow.
Dance & Freestyle
Dancing is flowing footwork and movement across the board. Freestyle adds tricks, spins and technical flair. Different styles that often blend together, focused on creativity, rhythm and personal style.
Surfskating
Surfskating is all about deep carves and pumping from your body. Smooth, fluid and wave‑like, it’s about linking turns and finding rhythm on land.
Downhill & Freeride
Downhill is about speed and holding a clean line at pace. Freeride mixes in slides and controlled drifts to manage that speed with style. Both are technical, powerful and deeply rewarding.
