Skateboard Express have 6 different skateboards/longboards on sale. Good value at 50% off. I own the Vault Fish (not on sale) and the Vault Fibreflex 28 (on sale, not quite 50% though) and I've been happy with both. List of boards on sale is on the front page of the website. Prices include shipping.
can u give any ideas on research? I'm an old skater from long back but am looking at these long boards to have a bit of cruisy fun down the streets :-)
It's somewhat tricky I guess as some of the boards are a bit 'noname'. Try to reach out to forums / youtube about the board itself then separately about the parts (eg: is the rigidness/weight of the board meets your preference? /I prefer rigid boards for instance/ Is the wheel soft enough / hard enough? Are the ball bearings top quality (ABEC ratings)?)
I hope it helps somewhat… :)
Just noticed that they really should invest in a decent calculator that works okay with the /2 operation every time…. ;)
Radical.
Are the boards any good? How do they compare to brands which I recognise and can get it other places like Sector Nine or similar?
I can only recommend Skateboardexpress - very friendly crew. However, do your research on specific boards before buying them! :)
