The "best" wood depends on if you want your longboard to be flexible, stiff, light, or heavy. Maple is a common wood used to build stiff longboards, it is a tad heavy but not really a problem. An alternative to this is Baltic Birch wood, it is cheaper than maple but a little more flexible. Bamboo is also used on longboards but may be harder to press and access. If you are going to make a longboard I would recommend using fiberglass on the bottom and maybe even top layer to add some strength.
bamboo is the best for a good flexable board, but if you cant get that maple wood is the second best
The disadvantages of using a cheap longboard are that they tend to be made of stiffer wood and when you ride the longboard there is no give or flexibility which gives a very unstable ride.
You can use a longboard on any type of wave but gently breaking waves are best.
It depends on the type of wood used to make it. It will probably range from 3.5-4.5 lbs.

No, you'll need some stronger type of wood.
If you want to try longboard surfing you should go to First Point, Malibu, California. Makaha in Oahu, Hawaii is also a popular place. Cardiff in California is known as one of the best places for longboard surfing.
There is no best or worst Sector 9 longboard, or any longboard for that matter. This answer is all about preference and riding style. If you are into downhill the best board will be different from someone into carving. I am personally into downhill and I like the new Sector 9 Downhill Division boards, they are really nice.
purple orangutans are good
