| Hey guys,
I was looking to get a new cruiser to use to just get around easy and fast. I have tried my friends penny and it seemed pretty good but I wasn't sure if thats what I wanted. Anyone have any suggestions of cruisers? |

| pennys are somewhat small, so if you decide to go with a plastic board, get the penny "nickel" series. or you can go with krooked zip zingers, theyre a lot of fun as well. lots of companies make cruisers, do some research before making your final decision. |

| If you just want a cruiser I would honestly just recommend going to every skate shop you have and asking if you can ride it around the store a bit.
Just find out what you are most comfortable on and go with that. They are a super big fad this year so you should be able to find some locally. |

| TBH the bantam is kinda bad... its super tiny with an even smaller kicktil than a penny, and has no flex which makes the penny fun. If u arent a fatass like I am then you can get the stereo vinyl cruiser. it has a weight limit of like 180 pounds? idk, its basically the same as a penny but its cheaper and comes with a sweet set of shades. personally i have a nickel and a kustom krooked zig zagger. |
