Selecting Your Initial Longboard Dance Companion
Before you dive into the dance, selecting the right board is crucial. Beginners often face two primary options in longboard dancing: opting for a complete dancer longboard or crafting a custom configuration.
For newcomers eager to start longboard dancing, complete dancer longboards are generally the best and simplest choice. These boards are intentionally crafted for dancing, featuring a longer wheelbase for added stability, a deck with flexibility for smooth carving and footwork, and are typically pre-assembled with components suited for dancing. A complete setup eliminates the challenge of individually selecting components, allowing you to start practising without delay.
While a custom longboard setup may eventually pique your interest as you gain experience, initially, it may be overwhelming for beginners. The task of choosing the correct deck length, flex, trucks, wheels, and bearings necessitates a greater understanding of how each element impacts the board's dancing performance. However, as you grow and develop a personal style, exploring custom options may be beneficial in perfecting your experience.
