Hey, im new to longboarding and i want to start. i love to snowboard so i figured it will be like snowboarding on pavement. where i am there are small hills and flats. i want a board that can handle hills and the flats and something i can pump on. I also want it under $160. Im thinking about the earthwing superglider but im not sure. any suggestions? thank you

Under $160?
Do you mean deck or complete?
If you mean deck, the Landyachtz Battle Axe is great for all of those, and is a great beginner board.

The Superglider or Supercharger would be at the top of my list.

Where are you located?

I snowboard too, they're similar, they aren't identical; you may overweight your edge on a turn, since you're not strapped in. I guess you want to go fast since your a rider, so I would agree with the Superglider for what you want to do. Look into trucks with medium bushings and grippy wheels.
