I've been thinking of starting for a while, and was wondering if anyone has suggestions, I'll probably go for a long board not a generic though.

If you're looking to just cruise on a skateboard then a longboard will do for you, but otherwise you can't really do any tricks on a longboard. But if you are looking to skate I recomend the following: World Industries or Element board for start. Once you get better at it then eventually you'll have a unite choice of boards, trucks, wheels, and bearings.

As they said.
I had an Element Board.
Yeah, if your really skating, get an Element Board, some skate shoes, and wear a helmet, just for safety, they may think your lame, but it's better safe than sorry.
Unless you can land right, then you'll be "OK".

I would suggest a shorter board with wheels that don't go too fast...
Don't want to land on your butt too much XD
I'm still falling a lot due to my wheels...it takes awhile to get used to it.
I have an ML...it's a New York skating company...it was recommended to me for a beginner board.
