What materials are skateboard trucks made from?
Long board wheels or any skateboard wheels are generally made of polyurethane, ore just urethane. Long board wheels are generally softer and larger than regular skateboard wheels. The softer the wheel, the smoother and quieter the ride is, but hard, smaller wheels are good for landing tricks, but go slower and bumpier. Since long boards are generally not used for flip tricks, they can focus on speed and ride quality.

Can skateboard trucks be used on long boards?
It depends. Without going into too much detail, all trucks are essentially the same, aside from length. If a truck is too short for a board, the wheel will hit the deck and cause wheel-bite. Wheel-bite can stop your board entirely when making a turn, potentially causing injury. If you can't afford to purchase longer trucks, buy some risers. Risers go in-between the deck and the truck to lift the deck and prevent wheel-bite. Just make sure that you purchase corresponding hardware to accommodate your new risers. Good luck.
Should i get a longboard or penny board?
It depends on your preference, whether you would rather have a smaller board or a larger board.

Longboards are larger than a skateboard, the trucks are different, and they are great for cruising and coasting long distance.
