Surfing Waves

iv been longboarding for about a year and i can handle it pretty well, but i wanted something for messy days of when i had to take the bus, so i got myself a 6'6" Bilbo retro bug and i only shortboarder for about half a year, but i found that i found it so easy, within an hour i was putting in some ok top turns and doing some good pumping. I do hi performance longboarding so i think that i might of found it easy because of that, but a longboard is very different for a 6'6" so it might not be. Anyone els found a transition for longboarding to shortboarding as easy as me?

well i made the transition from nothing to shortboard pretty quick if that counts? never ridden a longboard

you should, the speed you get is amazing

I'll let you know when I transition back to shortboard.

Went from short (25 years) to long (the past 4) and my surfing has definately picked up. I've been wanting to bring the shortboard out a couple days, though, but am a bit worried I might have lost a bit.
