Filmed a little bit on my trip to Japan. Where i got around on the best travel skateboard the Landyachtz Dinghy. All clips were filmed with the Gopro Hero 5. Instagram: wehrwolf93... Musik: Indigo La End
This is awesome my man. But I like is the amount of effort you put in placing the camera in many different angles I can imagine the amount of time it took to shoot and edit this, beautiful place. I also did a thorough review of this board on my channel feel free to check it out if you like. Looks like Japanese people aren't quick to fuss at street skaters also. Peace.
@@SkatingwithAaron hey thanks Aaron. One of these days I'm gonna challenge you to do something on your channel but I haven't got the idea fleshed out fully lol
@@SkatingwithAaron Nothing crazy, I challenge you to nose manual toward an empty soda can , nollie over it and land into a regular manual. im not sure if ive seen you manual onthe channel though
@@sarahj579 Nah. It's the perfect size for comfort and portability. I've even gotten a second one. Don't get a 22" penny though. Those are definitely too small for comfort, especially on anything that's not perfectly flat and without cracks.
@@tinku4271 I'm 186cm, on a lighter side. It'll take a bit to learn to skate, but that's a normal part of the process. The board is a really great one, go for it!
@@tsbohc i usually skate on my friend cruiser, its a 33" not that high quality but its a lot fun, also his wheels are 65mm, not sure what brand but thw dinghy has 63mm wheels , shouldnt the dinghy feel a bit rougher and not as smooth? I would love to get the turbo king but while im enjoying cruising on my friends board, i cant guarantee ill cruise a lot so i dont want to waste money on the more expensive turbo king
Thank you for making this, I've been considering buying this board and as I plan to live in Japan in a few years this pushed me over the edge to get one.
Man, thanks for making the effort to catch these clips on your trip. Awesome way to see Japan. Watching this in Australia (2021) with longing to get back to Nihon!
@@jewfrojoe3 Yes and no, I believe skateboarding is illegal to do in public places, especially in crowds or on the sidewalk. Think about Japanese culture--quiet and polite. Skateboarding is loud and brash (in an expresive way imo). However, if you skate in places where there's practically nobody it's sorta chill. Therefore, many Japanese skaters skate at night if they're out and about. You're really only allowed in dedicated skate parks. Source: a Japanese friend
@@savien1400 Yeah, it's considered rude, impolite, a disturbance. You should really go to a skatepark in Japan. There are also big sports centers. They often have a skatepark inside. Some quiet spots in the city might be cool too. But not roads, sidewalks, streets of any kind where people are living. Most people silently judged this person from the video :P It's just the way it is. In any case, the board looks fantastic. And I love the scenery. I'll buy it first thing next month
Great video! Just barely recovered from a bad knee injury so I can't wait to take my Dinghy out for first cruise by the beach. BTW... I love how the bug at 2:03 just barely made it.
Dang, I've never been to japan or on a skateboard, but everything about this is oozing with unalloyed good vibes and it makes me feel nostalgic to some extent (good visuals and music help a lot in that regard), the same way studio Ghibli's"whispers of the heart" did, lol. I may have to add skateboarding in japan to my bucket list. Such a fantastic video!
My review, would be defintely don't buy a penny board. I had a globe bantam wich is very similar and it's good to skate around, but the dinghy is definitely more. You can slide a little bit on it, use it in skateparks and its just more of allround talent with an amazing form factor. The shape is amazing, becauce they kept preety much normal dimensions of a skateboard and just cut of the nose. Thats why you have a tail that actually really works and it has close to the same feeling doing ollies on it as a normal skateboard. So if you are looking for cruiser to do a little bit of everything the dinghy would be the best choice. I havn't skated a better mini cruizer
@@jneff42 tbh, i think you shouldn't go for the dinghy if you actually want to go skate at a park, i think the ATV series from Landyachtz would be more beneficial, as those are meant to be allround boards. great for cruizing due to the bigger hawg wheels but still maintain the classic popsicle shape that a normal skateboard has (though some are slightly different, but you'll still have the same basic shape).
Great video! What do you think about angled risers on a board that small? It looks like you had no issues manuvering so I thought you may have some insight. I just ordered mine and wonder if I should swap out the flat pads for angled?
Looks very manoeuvrable! Since this is an old video, if you're still active on the channel, I'm presuming this is the original Dinghy and not the slighter bigger recent Blunt version?
I picked up one of these after not skateboarding for 25 years. I love the hawgs wheels. Complete boards were a not cool in the late 80s. The best part about this company is this popularity. I picked up 2 of these boards used for 60$, people try them out then leave them in their closet for 2 years. For the money these are good semi pro boards. Unless you plan on only park or pool riding, street cruises are where you take the Dinghy.
Awesome video! This is inspiring me to board more in Japan. And now I think I want a Dinghy, haha. Looks like so much fun. Just, I had a cruiser in college, and it was hella hard to ollie properly or use at the skatepark. So considering a popsicle deck with cruiser or longboard wheels + riser. Choices, choices... Did you get any problems from police or anyone in Japan? I heard skateboarding is technically illegal in Japan, reasoning is they don’t have brakes, therefore dangerous. Wouldn’t stop me from boarding, though.
Really cool video!! I'm also thinking about buying a Dinghy for my next trip to Japan. Seems easier to carry than an normal skateboard. Is it Takayama at 1:04?
And Matsumoto at 0:33 I believe it's the 3rd November when they have the festival there. Would definitely recommend going during the autumn leaves time - koyo Takayama is recommended for sure And Kanaza - you can head there after. Worth checking out the Shikoku island too - via Onomchi - head up to Takamatsu and get a ferry to Noashimi island - the art island. You can rent a bike there to cycle around and look at the exhibits, but you could skate it too. I didn't skate in Japan, I cycled - but it's very cycle friendly, and people let you do your own thing - but are super friendly and helpful when you engage with them. Cycling infrastructure is handy for skating, especially long distance longboarding. I didn't check out the southern most island, Kyushu, but it's meant to be great. The Shimanami Kaido - the island route from Onomichi to Shikoku island - a famous cycling route, could be pretty epic on a longboard. Would be too mental and long on a Dighy though.
I think you can take every normal size Sakteboard in a plane. I saw it in a lot of videos of pro skaters and other youtubers. I hadn't the balls to do it and just stored it in my checked in luggage, where it perfectly fit in.
I bring my skateboard in a skateboard bag (skate sauce skateboard bag) but not every airiline/airport allows to bring a board as a carry on. It's better to ask at the check in counter otherwise they can refuse it later at the security so you will have to come back at the check in counter (happened to me)
