Uyini umehluko phakathi kokushushuluza nge-longboard nokushushuluza nge-shortboard?
Ukushushuluza kungumdlalo wasemanzini lapho "umshushuluzi" emi phezu kwebhodi, futhi egxuma phezu kwegagasi, ngokuvamile ehamba negagasi lisuka olwandle liye ogwini. Lo mdlalo uvame ukuhlukaniswa ube yi-longboarding noma i-shortboarding, yize kunamabhodi obude obuphakathi. I-longboarding iyindlela yokuqala yokushushuluza, futhi ngokuvamile ibhekisela ekugibeleleni ebhodini okungenani elingamamitha angu-8 ubude.  Ngenxa yobukhulu nomthamo wamabhodi amade, amabhodi amade azinzile kakhulu futhi anamandla amakhulu okuhamba. Lapho bebamba igagasi, abagibeli bebhodi elide kungathiwa "bagibela" futhi bagxumagxume njengokunyakaza kwabo okuyinhloko ngemva kokubamba igagasi. I-shortboarding ngokuvamile ibhekisela ebhodini elingaphansi kwamamitha amahlanu ubude, futhi ngobuningi obuncane nobude, abadlali be-shortboard bangashesha kakhulu, benze ukusika nokusika lapho bebamba igagasi.  Abaqalayo bavame ukuqala nge-longboarding, yize kungebona bonke abazoqhubeka ne-shortboarding, njengoba i-shortboard surfing ingabhekwa "njengokuqhubekayo" ku-longboarding, futhi abasubathi bazokhetha ukuthi yisiphi isitayela sokusebenza abazizwa besilungele kakhulu.
