Longboarding



Ok, I've never owned one nor rode one, unless you can count 2 minutes on a longboard sometime in the 80's. But now when getting closer to the 4 0 (Harley Davidson comes when you turn 5 0) I've started to have the "urge" to own one.
As I am not a pro first thing I will look for is the aesthetics of the board. So when purchasing it I want it to look like me so a custom made it should be. I'm not saying it will be custom made but ... lets wait and see. And ideally locally made, read Made in Finland.
Here's few examples of locally made and from abroad.
