So i tried to find a cheap longboard but no luck...

there are a list of things to consider for a smooth ride:
trucks-
you will want your trucks wide and loose, with good bushings.
bearings-
invest in good bearings. trust me. you'll want some that can last a long time, and of course, go fast. bones swiss are always a wise choice.
wheels-

Get soft wheels.
Riding with soft gelly-like wheels with absorb all the rocks and cracks on the ground which will give you a much smoother ride, even though it's a short board. You don't need longboard trucks. Regular short board trucks will do fine. I'd rather put that money towards some good bearings (like bones swiss, which are expensive

What length longboard skateboard should I get my son?
Nov 27, 2007 by tjsmom | Posted in Other - Sports
My son is 12 and wants a longboard skateboard for Christmas. I know he wants a Sector 9. He is 4'10" and about 88lbs. Very athletic and an intermediate skateboarder, but new to longboarding. Any advice?
this is the board i would sugest to any one allthough it is a little pricey.

but if you're sticking with sector 9, go with a bamboo board about 40 inches in length.
