Freestyle / Freeride

Freeride longboards are usually symmetrical, also called twintip. This means that you can skate in both directions without problems. Freeride longboards can be used for a bit of everything, but are especially good at performing lots of spins and tricks while skating. This, of course, means that freeriding is a little more advanced in comparison to cruising.
