I've been building and riding longboards for almost a decade now, but have never tried a mountain board. (the thread with the Trampa StreetCarver got me thinking...) I'm intrigued because the mountain board trucks look much simpler to machine, which would allow me to create a truck with the motor mount built right in.
Is there an advantage of one over the other? How is the ride/feel? Obviously some have bindings, but that seems over kill on the street/sidewalk. Any reason to go one way over the other?
