Longboarding - Where to ride for different styles

There are many places to longboard, but it all depends on what type of longboarding that you like to do. If you are looking to just cruise around with the wind in your hair then flatland is for you. If you are into going fast with sharp hairpin turns and big predrifts then you would be looking for hills and mountains. If you like what we longboarders call dancing then flatland or a hill with a low grade is just what you're looking for. One last style called freeride, this means you like to do everything within the longboarding family, you would choose anything between a 35% grade mountain road or a flat road for cruising.
