Longboard Question

get some abec 11 gumballs or something like those for wheels. and if you got some greenbacks to drop then get some ceramic bearings or swiss bones, but if not, reds will do just fine.

is there different softness's to them?

idk about long board wheels but for me swiss bones ceramic or reds are the best bearings fr my skateboard. i hear tensor is making some really dope fast bearings too.

reds are good, but for a longboard i wouldnt get ceramics because generally you are carving to slow down anyways.  I mean if you want to go faster just find a steeper hill.

if you want good wheels, like one person said abec 11 gumballs are good.  also satori big buds are very soft.

but actually my friend got a board from a canadian company called rayne, with a certain brand of wheel on it that is as soft as a gumball but even wider.  also the board is unlike any longboard I have ever ridden.  it goes faster than anything, never gets any wobbles, and never slides out.  basically it makes normal longboards look like shit.

Im also wondering where some good spots are in chittenden county, VT that arent busy like in burlington because i get nervous around cars
