Anything by original skateboards.
there is no best longboard for anything there just different but a good crusing board must be quiet smooth and easy to push.

purple orangutans are good
Look in the silverfish classifieds for a good fast longboard that is affordable and fits your requirements.
There seems to be good reviews for the Santa Cruz Stormtrooper longboard. Many who have purchased this and tried it out have said they really like it and it is better than other boards they have had.
there not the best, but they are pretty reliable
Surfing- on the longboard- was created in Hawaii. It is the best.
longboard races
Ya I love mine I have the bamboo board with dolphins on it good for beginners :)
