I am a new longboard riders. I have a pintail Longboard but recently the board was broken. But I want to buy a suitable longboard for Downhill Longboard. One of my friends advice me to Drop-through Longboard will be perfect for this purpose.
Can someone help me to find a perfect longboard for enjoyable downhill longboarding?1. What kind of trucks should I choose?
2. which bearing can give great speed?3. What type of wheel soft or hard will be good?

If some experts answer to these question I will be grateful.
Thanks.
