Explain what are the different styles of longboarding eg cruising and carving?

Basically cruising just means casual riding.

Carving refers to swerving while riding a hill, the G-Forces of the carve make it fun, and it slows you down, similar to cutting while skiing/snowboarding.

Bombing is when you assume a locked aerodynamic position (usually low on the board) and ride a hill as fast as you can, for speed.

There are other trick carves also, google them if i didnt get it.

What do the degrees of a longboard truck change?

higher degree = more turning and more lean(helps with sliding) but less stability and a higher ride height.

lower degree = less turn although depending on your bushing(the urethane part) you can still achieve a good amount of lean, but increased stability and lower ride.


purely preference, some pro's race 100+ km/h on 50 degree trucks(basically the highest degree you'll want) and some chose to run 35 or even less(basically zero turn, all the turn is done by drifting your back wheels)


more turn=easier to dodge the unexpected though.

Can better grip tape help you ollie?

no it will not, only practice will. Grip tape causes your feet not to slide, if you don't have it your feet will not stay on the board. Grip tape is not a factor in your ollie.

What are the pros and cons of skateboarding in the public?

Pros:

  1. Get to show off your moves
  2. If you get hurt, you can get help quickly
  3. Some of the best skating spots are in public cities
  4. Your most likely gonna meet some awesome skaters in public areas.

Cons:

  1. Some public areas will not tolerate skating activity
  2. In an area with more publicity, some people will not like to have someone skating around back and forth(such as old people)
  3. You have the risk of being taken to jail if you don't know the public area's rules and one of them be that skating is strictly prohibited.

Well...that's all i can think of. To be honest, I skate public in areas that I know I won't get into trouble, so if I was you, I would proably skate in public. Hope you liked my answer.
