Took DJ's advice and I wear the crocs and my feet still start to get numb if I do not start using my feet to push. I guess you need to get off and walk around every so often. I can pretty much keep up with my son who doesn't want to use the stick while on the longboards.

Id say its the board/wheels/trucks picking up all the vibration..... the better these things the less you will feel any vibration in your feet and numbness .... try the kahuna boards makers of the land paddle it will just change the way you enjoy the sport...true and no i dont sell it :)

Hi Keys Sup, i agree with jasdeking ,try the standard Kahuna beach board the extra flex will give you a much softer ride and you may find it more manouverable
hope this helps

It was a joke to DJ. The Sector Nine Tyrlam is really flexable and the wheels I use are ony 78 durometers. This was a trip over two miles each way and I did not get off the board except for when I turned around.

Sounds like your having fun, went out today on free board with a stick and my son took his rip stick with a stick, getting better on the free board but still hard . But can say the rip stick is way more fun with stick . My son was having so much fun i had to give it go,

Ha.. .. Nice.

They've gotta be better than bare feet.. .. and the older they get the softer they get.
