skateboarding

Requesting some suggestions … I have not owned a skateboard in decades but am considering purchasing a longboard for exercise and recreation, for use mostly on paved walking/biking trails and residential streets around the neighborhood. What make/model should I look at?

Details: 6-foot-1, 270 lbs, size 13 shoes, male, born in the 1980s, casual skateboarder in my youth but no recent board sports. I live in an area where temps often reach into the 90s and 100s F.

I asked my friend, he is a longboard professor👀 

According to your physical condition and needs, you need a longboard with a harder surface, wider and softer wheels with normal caliber

He recommended this one: Tesseract from Loaded

(used to skateboard at the uni, but yes  getting old and the pals of my youth are gone 🥲

Thanks so much to you and your friend for the suggestion!

I’m kind of leaning toward a symmetrical double drop like the Pantheon Nexus. Maybe with Paris v3 165mm 43 degree trucks, Seismic Speed Vent 85mm 80a wheels, and Zealous steel bearings. Seeking something stable and comfortable to push in a mostly straight line on smooth asphalt for up to several miles at a time.
