Best “skateboard” cruiser

Hello guys!

I’m a beginner and I’m looking for the best cruiser for rough streets. I currently have a Penny 32”, but I don’t feel very confident on it and my balance isn’t great.
I’m not interested in tricks, just cruising on bad pavement: rough asphalt, cracks, small holes, uneven streets, etc.
I’m considering these boards:

1) Globe Big Blazer 32” — 62mm 78A wheels, 17.75” wheelbase

2) Santa Cruz Dot Dudes 34” — 60mm 78A wheels, 18” wheelbase, very wide deck

3) Arbor Groundswell Rally 30.5” — 65mm 78A wheels, 20” wheelbase

4) Landyachtz Tugboat Atmosphere 30” — 60/63/65mm 78A wheels depending on the shop, shorter wheelbase

Which one would feel the most stable and forgiving for rough pavement?
Right now I’m leaning toward the Globe Big Blazer or the Santa Cruz, but I’d like to hear from people with more experience.
