It might be worth it for you to check out the section for Original products if you do decide to scroll down...

You're the one using harsh words... so you chill out and accept that Original sucks.

Original is disliked for a variety of reasons (search function will explain)
Pintails are also not very functional shapes in general (search function will explain)
Any further info can probably be found using the search function although if there's nothing positive about the product (ie deck, wheels etc.) then they probably aren't worth your money.

The company called Original skateboards is run by some less than kind people. If they decide that they don't like you, like on Facebook or Youtube, they block you and delete your comment. Also, if you ask a question about their logic, they will try to turn it around, making you seem stupid. It does not work, and makes them seem stupid, but still. We avoid them because they are very un-chill people,

I would look elsewhere, I've ridden both the 40 and the 37, both were low quality. the grip tape is a dysfunctional design and it comes up in several places. The tail chips and cracks easily. there is not a lot of EFP, so riding them is a pain. They are not very versatile boards, think of them as hard-core pintails, it sounds cool, but these boards just don't deliver. Not comfortable enough to be a good cruiser, and not high performance enough to really cut it. Stay away.

Alright thanks guys for en lighting me on original longboards, sorry for the harsh comment

. I dont own any original longboards I have a landyachtz and i was just wondering how there pintails stand on the market.

Don't worry about it. A pintail is a very simple, basic board. For the price Original charges for pintails, it should have a built in Lay-Z-boy recliner/

Long boarding is closer to sidewalk surfing. Long board equipment is similar to standard skateboard equipment, with the exception of slide gloves.Original’s Jack Darby and Kyle Gallagher compile idea from their busy summer. A visit to team mate Jon Sevik’s slidejam and road trip trek to meet up with the rest of the team at the 2012 Original Team picnic.
