^^ think about the cost to get into longboarding vs skating

its the same as lacrosse or hockey... versus basketball and footfairy games

you could pick up an entry level complete for like $79

cheapest longboard??? not pennyboards cruisers etc

If you browse craigslist and local buy/sell/trade groups on facebook you could get a really good complete freeride setup in good condition for under 130. If you really looked you could find a good starter setup for under 100. Just briefly looking at one of the B/S/T's I'm in I could put a pretty sick setup together for 105 (20 dollar wheels, 25 dollar trucks, 30 for the deck, call it another 30 for shipping/hardware/bearings if you don't already have that stuff.

I'm surprised people don't get mad at down hill mountain bikers, "because it's just a more expensive version" like holy fuck, you guys have completely irrelevant arguments as to why longboarding sucks so much.

You referring to the USA B/S/T? I have the cover photo for that /claim.

But yeah, on those facebook groups, there are $200 setups going for half that on a regular basis. The people saying that it's only for rich kids just want a reason to hate it just because it strays from what you consider to be "skateboarding" It's just different. In street skating, hard falls come from gnarly rails and huge gaps/other street shit. With longboarding, they come from hauling ass into a slide or bombing a hill at 45. They're on completely different ends of the "skateboarding" spectrum, and shouldn't be compared as much as they are.
