The Sector 9 Striker Longboard is a textbook college cruiser. While it could be a little smaller, the Sidewinder trucks create a turn radius so sharp it may as well just be called a sidewalk surfer. The Striker also comes complete with a camber for pumping into and out of turns and keeping to the boards true nature of responsiveness.
A nice touch to the Striker is the fact that they made it with the drop through mounting keeping you a little lower to the ground for easier pushing and making the otherwise squirrely double kingpin trucks a little easier to handle (however the option to top mount it is always available with some tinkering). Throw all of that together with a little kicktail for some clutch situations with curbs or just for busting some manuals for the hell of it and you have yourself a spunky little cruiser.
