New (to me) longboards
I was able to get a couple of good longboards locally. Wanted to share.
I'm not sure the model of the Santa Cruz one, but I know the Arbor Axis 38 in the first pic. So far, been just learning around my block. Moving from esk8 into traditional longboarding has been interesting. I have the balance, but learning to push and stop are the most challenging things.
Both boards are smooth, though I think the Santa Cruz board, being older and more worn, might need bearings, bushings and wheel replacements in the nearer future. Also, the grip tape is a bit worn down so I might replace that right away.
