Default which board to get

i have been wondering what kind of longboard to get. i have picked a few that i like but i dont know which are the best for the stuff i would like to do. i would like a board that has good push, good carving and cruising, and good freeride.

if you could tell me what type of board would be best that would be nice thanks!

Sounds like you kinda want an all-arounder.

How tall are you? How much do you weigh? Do you want a tail? What shapes do you like? Do you like flex or want the board stiff?
