I present the Landyachtz Tugboat thorough review. I primarily compare it to its little brother the dinghy. The dinghy was perfect in my opinion so when Landyachtz Team Manager Billy "Bones" Meiners gave me the opportunity to test out the Tugboat I couldnt resist. its a bit larger in every way but still behaves in the same agile manne.

These boards are great alternatives to step up from penny boards or nickel boards. They have much more grip and the decks don't flex so you can ride harder.

@FrostyAvenger 6 лет назад

I love these reviews! I'm learning things I may have never known like the bearings getting better as they start breaking in. Not gonna lie, I held a brand new Landyachtz in my hands and thought the bearings were bad because they weren't spinning like you said. Saved me some cash!

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

FrostyAvenger you're welcome and I'm glad it helped. Actually when I brought my first dingy I realize who ever assembled it tighten the bolts too much on three of the wheels. Backing the nut off slightly made the wheels turn freely. It's always good to go over the bolts when you buy a skateboard or even a bicycle

@AMMAZZARE 2 года назад

I have a tugboat for cruising around. Love that board.

@davidandhometech 4 года назад

Nice review Ray, hope you do more. The Landyachtz videos are great fun to watch and make for excellent marketing. But your videos speak to me a lot more to me as it makes things so much more accessible and realistic. Everyone has their own situation and needs and for me, considerably older than you, 5'11" 215lbs, skateboarding is a blast from the past that I am rekindling with my 13 year old daughter. I've just ordered a Landyachtz Dugout as I think the longer wheelbase will offer me extra stability. My daughter is going to make her decision once we've tried the Dugout. Needless to say we strongly encourage your to make more videos as they're informative, relatable and easy to listen to, great job!

@Raychristofer 4 года назад

Hey David I really appreciate that man because yes the landyachtz videos are very fun but I can't do tricks or many of the maneuvers those pros are doing so sometimes I feel left out also. I say it all the time that this is a photography channel but my 2 skateboard videos or more popular than anything else. I really would like to start a skate channel but I just don't have enough gear 2 review. Hey man skating with your daughter is a great idea and realistically it's good to have different types of boards for whatever mood your in. I have three different ones but 80% of the time I grab the dinghy. let me know how it goes when you get it and thanks for taking the time to comment. By the way you probably already saw my penny nickel verse dinghy

@davidandhometech 4 года назад

@@Raychristofer Hi Ray, yes I also saw the Dinghy vs Penny Board reviews. We actually have a Penny 22" board, it's a bit of a toy but my daughter uses it to tick-tack through the kitchen and living room. My daughter wants to try riding the Dugout first (hoping to receive in 10 days) and will then go from there. She is also enamored with the Carver setup which is quite a different board. This may be a 'mean' question as I reckon you 'would if you could', but have you considered reviewing a Carver board with it's surf like ride? Maybe the foks at Carver Skateboards and Landyachtz would be willing to send you a board to review. As you can see from all the comments to your 2 videos, there are a lot of folks keen to see your take!

@Raychristofer 4 года назад

@@davidandhometech hey you know I had a chance to try the Carver board once. It reminds me of a RipStik. It's a great carving feelingbut one thing I noticed is the top speed is not as fast as a normal board that you push. it would be cool if we both could shoot parts of a review and edit them together lol.

@ru9575 6 лет назад

Raychristofer Hi Ray! I currently own the Dinghy and I love it. But I'm a big guy too and I'd like to switch to the Tugboat to have a little bit more room for my feet. On the other side I'd really like to keep the bigger wheels.... I like riding a looser setup, so wheelbite could be a problem for me with the Tugboat. Do you think it would be overkill in terms of riding height if I added some spacers, to make room for bigger wheels and looser trucks?

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

deki mat Deki I had the same problem but I figured out how to use the dingy Wheels on the tugboat. The dinghy wheels are offset so I flip them completely around and put them on backwards on the trucks which makes them a little bit more inset. Only in extreme situations where I stand on the edge of the board I get some bite in the back. But to answer your question yes you can probably add 1/4 inch riser. It's one of those things you have to experiment with. I can't believe I forgot to mention it but this is one of the only tugboats that has the smaller Wheels if you look in the catalog you'll notice the other versions have the larger 63 mm Wheels. In an interview they said the smaller Wheel versions are best for skating bowls where the wheel will clear the coping better.

@ru9575 6 лет назад

Oh and thank you very much for taking time out to compare these two! Just what I was looking for!

I just ordered one! And I can't even skate!😂🤘 It looks so smooth and easy when you demonstrate it. Wish me luck, see you on the flipside! 😎🤙

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

Hello Andreas how are you? That's awesome man. Here's the tip. Start in a smooth flat concrete with no cracks or pebbles to throw you. Push off one time slow and make sure your feet are in the middle of the board if not you'll find yourself turning in One Direction or the other. You may feel weird at first but keep your knees bent and stay low so if you fall you don't drop from too high. One thing I didn't know when I made this review was the black Tugboat is the only one with the smaller Wheels. Where did you order yours from?

@Andreasnordenstrom 5 лет назад

@@Raychristofer Hello! I'm good! The only option I had in my local online skateshop, was the Tugboat Chill Cat. It says 60mm(78A) wheels, would you reccomend bigger wheels for beginner. Or do you think it's good enough?😊 The price here In Norway is $210.. 😅

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

@@Andreasnordenstrom if the area you live has rough streets then a 63 mm definitely be better but otherwise you'll do fine with the 60, you just want to learn push over cracks and rocks rather than trying to skate over them

@@Andreasnordenstrom heck yeah you can put them on no modification needed. The only thing you may want to get his quarter inch risers just in case you get wheel bite but try it out without them first. Or if it didn't ship yet you can ask the company if they can swap out the wheels.

1:52 Big reason why the wheel difference feels so much more is because the numbers listed are a diameter measurement while at the same time they have a thicker ride surface so it's exponentially more surface area and therefore more grip.

@comicog3 6 лет назад

Maybe you're talking about the wheels as if they can't be changed because you're reviewing the complete only as Landyachtz sent it, but in case you don't know, you can add taller risers to the board so you can accommodate bigger wheels if you want a smoother ride on rough terrain.

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

Colin X you're right and yes I know about the risers I had to put quarter inch risers on the dinghy as well as I got some wheel bite out the box also. I think it's because I'm a heavy dude and it only happens in Xtreme leans probably a little kid would never come across it.

Don't waste time thinking about the negativity of others and do what you enjoy.

The Tugboat dimensions read as only a little larger than the Dinghy, yet the Tugboat looks huge in comparison. What's going on? Is that an older, smaller Dinghy? I thought the specs were something like 28" to 30" and 8" width to 9" width among the two boards. One of the quick question. Is that wave pattern a textured part of the grip or is it a painted design?

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

synapticflow you are correct it's 2 inches longer and a bit wider but it does feel a lot bigger. It's strange the griptape has that pattern built in. It's a good idea that they came up with these two boards being this close because it's good to have a choice in sizes

Great video! I have the smallest sized penny board right now but find that I get the death wobbles too often and stop suddenly on pebbles too much to be able to ride it to and from class on campus without almost eating it. I'm 5'9 and my feet are size 10 womens so I am looking for something more stable and durable for curbs, sidewalks, and tiled/brick roads. Would the tugboat be a good option as I already have a smaller board or is the dingy more stable in terms of not feeling every crack or bump? Thanks!

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

Hello thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment. Brick tiled roads that's a tough one I would almost recommend something larger than the 63 mm Wheels the dinghy comes with. I would say get the largest wheel you can for the size board you're looking for. Probably go to a Zumiez or a Ron Jon Surf Shop at a mall near you and you can get a better feel. Sorry about the rocks or Pebbles that's one of the worst feelings to suddenly stop and fall

Hello how are you? One thing I learned after shooting this review is this black Captain tugboat is different from all the other tugboats so, the wheels are smaller and the deck shape is different. The other tugboats have the same larger wheel as the dinghy. I wear a size 13 shoe and I still prefer the dinghy it's just more Nimble and fun. The size is not a problem. Watch Landyachtz promo videos of the dinghy to get a good idea of what it's about

So what wuld you recomend? Dinghy or tugboat i have been skating on my longboard for some years but im totaly casual no tricks. 40years old and your size looking to try a cruiser.

So I'm 6foot2, weigh 170lbs and I have a US size 11.... Im looking at both the dingy and tugboat. I'm kinda leaning towards getting a longer board as I'm slightly tall but I'd like to get the dinghy over the tugboat as it seems alot funner... What should I do?

@cassius969 5 лет назад

Dinghy vs tugboat is about how big your feet are, how comfortable you are on the board. If you wish the deck was wide get a bigger board. Being big is about getting the right duro for wheels and bushings.

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

Its not that simple boss, the tugboat is larger and has more space but I still prefer riding the dinghy. same goes for trick boards, some dudes with the same size shoes prefer wider or narrower boards

Sick review man! Out of curiosity, how did you get Landyachts to send those out for review? I'd love start up a review/beginner tips channel

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

Word up Joseph what's up and thanks for stopping by. About a year before this I did a review comparing my dinghy and Penny Nickel board. I emailed Landyachtz and ask them could I collaborate with them but when they saw how few views that video got they said they don't really do that. About nine months later that dinghy video had to reached 18,000 views and I reached out to them again and the team manager was impressed and he told me I could choose any board from their catalog so that's how I got the tugboat. This tug boat video is extremely popular as well but unfortunately when I emailed them back a few times I haven't gotten a response. My advice to you is if you want to approach companies it's make sure you have a solid body of work first so review the board gear that you have as best you can but honestly there's not a lot of skate companies I've been able to find to hook me up like this

Ray, for the bearings if they roll longer when you push'em with your hands doesnt mean they're performing in a better way, it just means there is less oil on them but it wont go faster. rolling with the hands actually doesnt mean anything for a skateboard's bearing. if you want bigger wheels on the thugboat you can still put 180mm rkp trucks and you'll be able to put 65mm wheels no problems (if you put risers can go to 70 easily) if will feel less turny though.

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

eferretti what's up bro, what I do notice is as far as the bearings is concerned my year old dingy rolled longer when riding it than the brand new tugboat not just in my hands. I actually figured out how to make the dinghy Wheels work they are offset so I turned them inside out bringing them closer to the center of the board and almost completely eliminate Wheel bite unless I Forced it. I have to review the board the way it is in stock form that's why I didn't talk about modifying it. Landyachtz did a very long video showing their complete 2018 lineup and they mentioned that they use smaller wheels on some of the boards for it to be more capable when riding bowls because it allows the board to grind the coping easier. So my all black Tugboat has those smaller Wheels but apparently the other models have the larger 63 mm version. I didn't realize that when I was shooting this review

@mulldriftyr 6 лет назад

yes they put a larger truck and a smaller wheel on this new thugboat compared to previous year, they did that too also on the beastwreck dinghy from 2018. if you enhance the trucks you have to put smaller wheels or put larger riser pads. i talked about rkp because they sit higher than tkp trucks. i turn my wheels inside out only if they're centerset, for the offset i would keep them in the way they're because turning them would mean less grip and more prone to deteriorate when you carve big or slide. smaller wheels also helps for the occasional ollie and stuff ;) landyachtz are awesome board builders

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

eferretti dude you really know your stuff. Now that you mention it I do remember people that do power slides mention that the offset of the wheel affects the grip. You really ought to do a video review as well. No pressure

@ItsDradem 6 лет назад

So loosening the trucks gives you wheel bite, even if you keep the same wheels on? Or only if you get bigger wheels? Also, will riser pads fix the wheel bite without sacrificing a comfortable ride?

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

Its D Big D what's up, yes even leaving the same wheels on I got tiny wheel bite in the back also when I got my dingy I got slight Wheel bite in the back. I'm a heavy dude though so maybe a teenager wouldn't experience that. On the dinghy I had to add 1/4 inch risers but tightening the tugboat pretty much eliminated the bite

@ItsDradem 6 лет назад

Thanks for the response man. And don't worry, we are in the same predicament, I'm also a heavy guy. Does the tugboat do good enough over cracks and pebbles?And can I add risers on the tugboat if I want to have the trucks loose on it without wheel bite? (My mind is set on the tugboat, not really interested in the dinghy.)

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

Its D check this out, this black Tugboat seems to be the only one with a smaller 60 mm Wheels if you want to go over rough payment better look at the website and look at the other Tugboat models, you will notice the wheels have a marble pattern in them those are the 63 mm wheels that are bigger. Also the tugboat and decks are ever so slightly different with the different models. This Black Tugboat has wide 150mm trucks and I think that contributes to the wheel bite so if you get the standard 130mm model you shouldn't have any problems

Hello yes definately it would. the reflexes to learn skating are the same no matter board you ride. I might even recommend you trying a long board with larger diameter wheels. if you get a landyachtz look at the specs to make sure its the 63mm wheels as many use the smaller 60mm which doesnt run over cracks as well

@FoolisH409 5 лет назад

Hi friend, I used to skateboard when I was young. Now I’m grown and have a child, me an him both are in the market for a longboard. I have been spending days researching different boards an honestly i am quite overwhelmed with the amount of different brands and styles of longboards and I am trying to narrow it down to a few boards before we go and make a purchase. I personally like boards with kick tails, I have so far been intrigued by these two boards as well as the more traditional looking choice of the Landyachtz ATV. I want something that I can cruise on and do the occasional trick on it. I should also add that me an him are both pretty big guys. As I mentioned this is something that we are new to, an would really appreciate any recommendations, I appreciate any insight. Thanks.

@Raychristofer 5 лет назад

Hello Caleb and thanks for stopping by. What I recommend is looking at boards in person. If you're in the US go to a mall with a ron jon surf shop or zumies and see them in person that's what I did. But if that's not possible I say buy whatever appeals to you and let your son choose for himself also so having two different boards in the house you will see what you gravitate to. Check out my dinghy verse Penny review if you haven't also. Let me know what you decide on

@Raychristofer 6 лет назад

neff you are very correct, the older model tug boats have 63 mm Wheels exactly like the dinghy and several of the older models are still available in the 2018 catalog. Landyachtz did a feature on all their new boards and they mentioned that some of the same models have the smaller Wheels to be better adapted to riding bowls and skate parks allowing you to get up and grind the coping Easier. I wish they spoke of those differences in the catalog because As you say the ride quality is a pretty good difference especially in gritty road conditions.

@jneff42 6 лет назад

Ahh ok. That makes sense. Maybe it will help me at the skatepark. Even with 60mm it is a beast to ollie, or maybe I just need to get used to it. Gonna put on some rails so I don’t destroy my beautiful graphic :) Thanks for your help! Really wasn’t expecting you to respond this soon haha.
