Can I do freestyle on a Cruiser deck?

I wanna setup a board for freestyle and to take it to the skatepark, and I've noticed that specially for freestyle there's a lot of usage of the nose. The thing is that I also would like the board to double for cruising since that's my main activity with the hobby, and I'm not sure how comfortable a popsicle deck will be for that.

Plus, I also like the look of cruiser/old school decks. And I have big feet.

We did a thing in Venice Beach

It was a freestyle skateboarding competition called the U.S. Open of Freestyle. This was the first year that the USA Freestyle Skateboarding Association ran the event and we’re leaning a TON. Our big takeaways: keep scoring brief and transparent, splurge on a sound system, and make time & space for folks to skate together.

If you entered the contest, please check your email inbox. You should have an invite to participate in our post-event survey. This helps us make a better contest each year.

Looking to sell my board.

Bought it with the intention to use it, but I got in an accident and haven't been able to skate since then.

The board is on Sweden and I'll be able to ship it if the buyer pays for the shipping.

I'm asking $100 for it.

Better nose hook wrap?

Worked on my nose hook impossibles today, I think I found the technique to do a much more better wrap, or atleast get my back foot under the board more consistently. I just wanna know peoples opinion and possible tips I could apply to get a better wrap. The clip above was one of my best attempts that I landed, even if sketchy.
