It depends on your preference, whether you would rather have a smaller board or a larger board. Penny boards are smaller and good for cruising, some may perform tricks with them, but they aren't really made for tricks. Longboards are larger than a skateboard, the trucks are different, and they are great for cruising and coasting long distance.

What type of wheels can you put on a penny board?
Longboard wheels have a small hub, or core, inside it. Skateboard wheels also have this. This allows you to put bearings inside of both of them and can interchange what trucks you put on it. Generally, longboard wheels fit on normal skateboard trucks but a problem you will encounter is wheelbite. You may need to sand the board for wheel wells or put big risers on your board. Another solution is buying harder bushings for less turn and lean.

What size tucks for a longboard?
