Longboard skateboard question?

I recently got into longboarding but I've been using my friends board, and I think its time I got my own. I'm 5'7 and I'm not sure how much I weigh, but I'm pretty fit so I'm probably average weight. I'd like a board only for cruising, but can still go pretty fast, and that doesn't have like super wide turns. Tight turns please, :p. Thanks c:

Update:

I'm thinking of getting an arbor bamboo fish or a mission gt, what do you guys think?

    i think you should look at sector 9 boards. they are legit boards for around $100-250. there are lots diffrent kinds of them. I have a sector 9 36 inch fractal and I use it for cruising. its fast and turns pretty tight but you could always adjust it. im 5'6 and its done me pretty well xD I hope this sorta helped. im not to good with things like this cause I just buy a deck and upgrade from there. dx. www.sector9.com

    I agree with LindZay. Sector 9's are great boards for good prices. I have a Sector 9 Bamboo series Shipstern 38" and it's great for carving. You can always upgrade your trucks and wheels to get the exact type of ride that you are looking for. Good luck in your search.

    Go for a constant...lengthy forums are bigger for simply driving round, however you re younger, you have got time to get into the methods and stuff earlier than you knees supply out or some thing. Plus, they do have a better aesthetic high-quality in phrases of watching cool, particularly if you'll do even a couple of methods ;)
