[462hellboy]

what board at 0:16 plz tell me

[QurbStomp]

what colour is the standard wheels for freeride 38 (ape)

[Originalskateboards]

@QurbStomp the Kryptonics come in different colors- red, blue, clear, black.. depending on whatever the manufacturer sends us. If you want to get a guaranteed wheel color then you may want to upgrade.

[QurbStomp]

@Originalskateboards how do u do that?

[QurbStomp]

@Originalskateboards i want a orange ;]

[QurbStomp]

@Originalskateboards Thanks ,love

[ET3RN4LSN1P3Z]

Can someone help me... I want to get a longboard but I don't want to pay more than around £70

[sleasy69]

Got to ride a vanguard with s10 trucks on it. It was disgustingly turny and divey....I loved it :)

[Maxturneris]

i am 4'8 and 12 can i still slide on a arbor board

[Maxturneris]

@Maxturneris and its a fishtail

[SNAILMAIL1234]

hi im 5'2 and 123 pounds what board would you reccomend just thinking about carving and cruising

[NeenaAndEmily]

@SNAILMAIL1234 Hey look at the Pintail 37 or 40!

[Dspivz03]

I need a durable board for a low price?

[TheGroupVids]

Hi im 5'5, and im 145, which board would u reccomend? i am thinking about getting the pintail 43

[Originalskateboards]

@TheGroupVids Pintail 43 will be pretty stiff for you (good for stability, not as much power for carving) at 145 lbs. If you want something with flex then go with the Pintail 40.

[TheGroupVids]

@Originalskateboards well i want somthing more cruising, i dont really carve as much though. but my main concern is control and stability. Can the Pintail 40 do all that or can the Pintail 43 do all of that? and what does original mean when you are buying a board, and it asks you if you wanna get "Blem" graphics? And THANK YOU

[Originalskateboards]

Pintail 40 is more flexible so, not as stable.

[Replayzify]

@Originalskateboards HELLO im 4'8 im 13(short) what board is good for me ?

... ive been looking through stores and i found the "Dregs 36 rat Rod ". Is that board right for me or is there another choice please response... i want use this to go to school.. there is an awsome hill going to my school.. thankx!

[1b1enjamin]

can i use a crusing board for small downhill action ?? please answer Thanks

[Originalskateboards]

@1b1enjamin Sure- just work up to it and consider some heavier springs like red or white for added stability.

[vidgamesanlyrics]

Hi Im 5'6 and 95 pounds. Which board do you reccomend. Im digging the graphics on the torpedo40.

[Originalskateboards]

@vidgamesanlyrics

The Torpedo would work for you, but you should also consider the Custom 35 or Derringer 28

[AdamSc00ts]

hey original skateboards, i really like the derringer and i was wondering what its good for? im 13 and i was thinkin bout buying it

[Originalskateboards]

@AdamSc00ts

The Derringer is great, but it's sold out right now. You should also check out the Custom 35 or Torpedo 40

[Santimartigarri]

@Originalskateboards I have a derringer and its a great board for carving! i love it. im going to buy a bigger board for some bigger stuff but the derringer has served me well!!!!

[kahkistarfish]

hey im new to longboarding just wondering what a good board would be for carving downhills im 5 10 and 155 pounds

[fulontos]

i am 5,2 and i weigh 113 lb

[fulontos]

hey, i have a question which longboard is better apex 34 or apex 37 please let me know

[Originalskateboards]

Hey fulontos,

If you want to get into cross stepping, go with the 37, otherwise at your height and weight, the 34 is the way to go!

[SuburbanThreat1]

Hey Original, im 6ft 187 i ride a sector 9 with 70mm weels i fly down hills but cant carve for the life of me is there certian weels that make it easier to carve? hope to hear from ya thanks. Your vids are awesome

[Originalskateboards]

Hey ST,

A grippier wheel like Abec 11 Grippins or Gumballs might help, but the reason why we have such good carving capabilities in our videos is due to our patented carving trucks. Check them out and let us know if you have any questions!

[nasf62]

Hey Original,

What's the song at the end of this video? I'm diggin it.

[det0x1]

Hey original!whu don't u guys sell the custom 35 deck cause i try to buy it and it don't let me.

Thank you

[maktheskankkiller]

when is the custom 44 coming back in stock?

[paintballer417]

i just got mine =D

[thehope]

Go to the "BeyondPhenom" website for the Best Personal Sports Highlights

[LongboardATL]

what board is best for fast quick carving? I might buy a mini but im not too sure which i should buy? I weigh 110lbs and am 5 6". Thanks!

[Originalskateboards]

@LongboardATL, I'd say go with the Hybrid 35, that is a pumping machine!

[TwoDayOldPudding]

@Originalskateboards is pumping an alternative to pushing?

[Kendrakinns]

Around 5'3, I might get taller though, and 114 lbs.

Sorry for all the questions, but will I go pretty fast with just the standard bearings on an Apex 34 or Path 37?

-Thanks again!

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Kendra,

The 34 would be the best choice for you and you will have decent speed with the normal bearings. Let us know if you have any other questions!

[Kendrakinns]

Hey Original!

I'm totally stuck on what board to get.

I was thinking the Path 37, Apex 37 or 34. I need a good commuting board, that can do tricks, and can carve. Where I live, there are only flats, and maybe a couple hills. Or, what would you recommend?

Thankyou!

P.S You guys are bombb :D

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Kendra,

Tell us your height and weight and we'll help you pick out the right board!

[Noise789]

you guys should put up videos of just the decks, can you?

[OriginalNJ]

you guys should come to holmdel.. there are some pretty sick hils here

[AngryGoblinFilms]

Hey guys, I know I've asked this before but would you happen toknow what sort of camera it is which you guys use to film all of your footage? By the way, I have my eyes on the Apex 37 at the moment, and as soon as I've worn out my current globe board, I'll try to get some money together to order one of yours in.

But yeah, please let me know if you find out the details of your video camera(s) because the tone is just beautiful and I haven't seen footage as rich as that in a while. Thanks heaps.

[Originalskateboards]

Hey AGF,

The camera is a Panasonic HMC 150

[AngryGoblinFilms]

Thanks heaps, I'll have a look at it online.

[iiNaThAnJ]

hey guys im thinking about starting to longboard any tips on what bored i should get to start off ?

[Originalskateboards]

@iiNaThAnJ Good to hear, a good idea would be to start with a cruising/carving board such as the Torpedo 40 or Malakai 40

[iiNaThAnJ]

@Originalskateboards Hey im thinking of buying the Torpedo 40 just wanted to know if you guys ship to england

[Originalskateboards]

Hey NaThAn,

Yes, we do ship to England!

[iiNaThAnJ]

@Originalskateboards is there a fee to ship it , if so how much?

[Originalskateboards]

60USD international shipping on any complete longboard

[aaronstory]

Hey original, I just got my custom 35 last week, damn this board is so sweeeeeet! This is the hardest carving board i have ever been on. I figured out that by loosining the trucks a little for flat land helps the carving and tightening them up a little helps for stability on the hills. I would like to know what to do as far as maintenence and greasing i couldnt find any info on the web page.

thanks!

[Originalskateboards]

Hey aaron,

Use "white lithium grease" (the kind in the tube or tub, NOT THE SPRAY) to the wave cams and that should be all you really need to do!

[pk3run1]

@Originalskateboards hey ik the owner of a local surf shop who stocks longboardsl. Can i get some profit or free merchandise by helping u guys get some buisness

[pk3run1]

ik=i know

[DARKSTAR256]

haha i didnt think he had sliding gloves on in the first sliding clip

[UCantLiveForever]

Im trying to add a malakai 40 to my cart but whenever i press add to cart it keeps popping up saying u must first select product options.. where is that? and i already picked out trucks and everything with the wheels and stuff is that it? if it isnt this website doesnt like me..! help!

[UCantLiveForever]

nevermind it let me check it out when i picked the standard wheels maybe they were just out of the ones that i picked. :/

[AfroGelXT]

that happened to me i think they are out of malakias so i just decided to get a path 37 instead seeing as they are quite similar

[tileman9876]

@UCantLiveForever if you didnt select one thing out of all of them click on that one thing u didnt add and select no "name"

[illninja137]

probably didnt check your flex rating

[jsan130]

is this filmed near union county college?

[flightlessbird998]

wat is the song name PLZ!?!?!??!?!?!

[DansoRandom]

Longboarding looks fun I skate and I'm wondering how diffrent is longboarding to skateboarding?

[trickytree2]

i tried someone elses and its pretty similiar to be honest although if u wanted to do tricks it eould be hard

[sk8rforlife27]

i used to skate.. then i switched to longboaridng.. Longboarding is awesome!! Longboarding is alittle different depending on the boards..

Example:

Sector 9-Stiff board, feels like a normal skateboard without kicks..

Loaded-Very Flexy, feels alittle awkward switching from skateboardd to longboard.

i ride loaded since they have really nice carving boards and looking forward to buying a original..

[me629]

its mad different bro. Same concept of skateboarding (deck on wheels) but the trucks are desgined to carve a shitload more then traditional sktateboard trucks. It takes some getting used to but is deff worth it.

[UCantLiveForever]

less tricks faster and u carve

[solerrage]

i wish to longboard but i do not know what longboard to get im 12 and im 136 pounds

i also skateboard

[Originalskateboards]

Hey solerrage,

What does your terrain consist of?

(hills, flatland etc.)

[solerrage]

mostly flatland

[Originalskateboards]

I would recommend that you check out the Hybrid or the Derringer. Both will work great for you! Let us know if you have any other questions!

[GimusicX]

thanks, how do i order a board??

[Originalskateboards]

You can order one right on our website at:

ORIGINALSKATEBOARDS . COM

Let us know if you have any other questions!

[GimusicX]

hey originalskateboards i think i am gonna order a malakai and i wanna get the gloves for carving do you send gloves???

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Gimusic,

We will have gloves available in the future, but you can easily make a pair of homemade slide gloves using gardening/work gloves and gluing pieces of cutting board to the palm and fingers. Let us know if you have any other questions!

[ihatecheez123]

Hey Orgiginal Skateboards

ive never had a longboard and im looking for a mini longboard. i dont know how to pump or carve so i need a board that is easy and i can learn fast on

im 5'7 and 127 pounds

which board do you recomend?

thanx

[Originalskateboards]

Hey cheez,

The right board for you would be the Derringer. It's great for pumping, carving, and will fit you perfectly! Let us know if you have any other questions!

[STIMP989]

Hey Original. I know you're probably tired of hearing this but I need some advice on a board. I am 5' 6" and 125 lbs. I'm looking for a board for just riding around and carving.

[Originalskateboards]

Hey STIMP,

I think that great board for you would be either the Derringer or Path. Check them out and let us know if you have any other questions!

[Sismantha]

i am 5'11 and like 155 pounds

[Originalskateboards]

I would recommend that you look at either the Path or the Torpedo, both with S8 Trucks for added stability! Check them out and let us know what you think!

[Sismantha]

im looking for a board for new riders and for serious carving,, can you tell me what would be the best for me thnks so much hope to hear back from you guys at original

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Sismantha,

Tell us your height and weight and we'll recommend a board for you!

[maximepaquin1]

Hey OriginalSkateboards,

I just got an Apex 37, S8, normal 70mm clear wheels, cell swiss bearings.

I also got a Malakai 40 with everything stock except bearings for my girlfriend.

Riding with those boards was really nice, really smooth. I particularly love the Apex37.

The thing is, as a long time skateboarder, I just can't stand still on a board.

What do you recommend as a setup (keeping the apex, but I'm ready to change the rest) for tricks (shove-it and so on) and slides?

Thanks

Max

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Max,

I would recommend Red Springs for added stability for tech tricks along with Lemon Retro ZigZags. This will be the setup that you see in Brian Bishops video "When Push Comes to Shovit"

[USMC77777]

I would just like to thank original because for the first time in my life I was sliding and it was awesome I didn't even mean to do it but anyway thanks OS

[HolyCrapItsConnor123]

can you guys skate or just longbord

[Originalskateboards]

Many of us can skate too, and we're pretty good.

[FreestyleBmx100]

i bet im better...

[Funamiguy]

song.........please?

[youknowwhatsupdudes]

I need to be on this team!

[marcosisdecent]

hey im new to longboarding and i need help deciding on a board and probably something cheap.

reply plz!!

[Originalskateboards]

Hey marcos,

Tell us your height and weight and we'll hlep you find the right board!

[WhatAreWeDoingForFun]

5'6 175pds ? any cruiser i would prefer =)

[Originalskateboards]

Hey What,

I would highly recommend that you check out the Torpedo or Custom 35! Let us know if you have any other questions!

[WhatAreWeDoingForFun]

is the torpedo 40 good too?

[Originalskateboards]

Yeah, the Torpedo is a great board, especially if you're beginner/intermediate!

[ekasperovskiy]

Amazing!!! :)

[redhawke2000]

Hi Originalskateboards. I am inspired to skate again thanks to this great informative n fun site. cant wait to get out there and carve sum paths, glad I maintained fitness.

[Originalskateboards]

Sick, redhawke! That's great to hear!

[LARiptide2]

Would you suggest any wheel upgrades then? I have a board with 70mms.. 65mm seems pretty small.

[Originalskateboards]

Yeah, I would recommend upgrading to some 70mm wheels.

[LARiptide2]

I'm new to longboarding, I'm about 5'8 120 lbs. I have no idea what board to get.

[Originalskateboards]

Hey Rip,

I would recommend that you go with the Path 37 with S8 Trucks for more stability. Let us know what you think!

[JollyRoger7737]

this looks fun....

[ElijahHeartsNinjas]

who cares if they dont wear their helmets, the choice is up to them. awesome video! :D

[anticonformist777]

oh but can the hybrid carve hills to controll speed and if i were to put 90-95A wheels on it would it slip out

[goorackerelite]

you would slide all over the place, which is great for technical sliding, but these wheels would make carving near impossible. Also hit a tiny rock on these wheels at high speeds and prepare to eat pavement.

[Originalskateboards]

Hey AC,

Yes, you can carve off speed, just be careful!

[anticonformist777]

well would it be able to go down huge hills like in your neigborhood and can it get at a speed of 40 and be great without wobbles because i do pool,hill,slide,bank,and trick skating lol so would the hybrid be good for that

[Originalskateboards]

You should go with either an Apex or a Custom 35. The Hybrid doesn't do well with high speeds. Let us know if you have any other questions!

[anticonformist777]

i need help which one should i get the hrybrid or the custom 45 in your opinion

[Originalskateboards]

Hey ac,

If it's more flatland, the Hybrid. If it's more hills, the Custom 45.

[pat0791]

i weigh 152 pounds and im 5 11, should i get the hybrid 35 or the apex 34

[Originalskateboards]

Hey pat,

Go with the Apex!

[BearBoyProductions]

i need a commuter carver can you help pick a board im 5 foot 10sh and around a hundred pounds

[Originalskateboards]

Path 37!

[OMGZiCANTALK]

make slide gloves!

[Originalskateboards]

That would be Brother Brad

[kingoffall57]

it's deck bite not wheel bite... but wat evr...
