Cruisers

If you are looking for a skateboard to get around or simply a stylish board to cruise the streets, a cruiser skate is the ideal solution. At Hawaiisurf, we offer an incredible variety of cruiser skates that suit all styles and needs. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, our cruisers are designed to provide a unique riding experience.

The important features of a cruiser skate: size, shape, and materials

One of the first things to consider when buying a cruiser skate is the deck size. Cruisers often offer various sizes to suit personal preferences and different uses. A shorter cruiser will be perfect for quick maneuvers and city use, while a longer model will provide better stability for longer rides.

The shape, or form, of the deck also plays a crucial role in choosing your cruiser. A board with a pronounced concave will offer better control, especially in tight turns. Other models feature flatter shapes that promote a smooth and stable glide, very pleasant for long rides.

Cruiser skateboards can be made from various materials such as maple wood, bamboo, or composite fibers. Each material offers its own advantages, such as the natural flexibility of bamboo, the robustness of maple wood, or the lightness of composites. Choose based on your priorities: durability, lightness, or flexibility.

Differences between a cruiser skateboard and other types of boards

While the classic skateboard is mainly designed for the park and performing technical tricks, the cruiser is primarily intended for smooth urban commuting. Its wider shape and soft wheels better absorb shocks from uneven surfaces and allow for a more comfortable ride on cobblestone sidewalks.

The longboard shares some characteristics with the cruiser , especially for the sensations of carving and smooth sliding, but differs by its generally larger size and its tendency for fast downhill riding. The cruiser, for its part, remains attached to its mixed use as a daily rider / urban leisure board, equipped with dimensions combining maneuverability and comfort.

Choose your cruiser based on its use

For daily trips in the city, opt for a compact and responsive mini cruiser. Easily portable and discreet, this type of model allows ease in heavy urban traffic and slips smoothly everywhere without causing clutter when parking.

For relaxing getaways outside the city, opt for stable medium-sized cruisers that offer good abilities to glide for hours. Choose wheels that are soft enough to absorb vibrations on rough sidewalks, and invest in sturdy decks to keep them in good condition despite the miles accumulated season after season.
