I'd say recurve because it has far more utility when compared to a longbow.

Ditto.

The arc and flight time is shorter. fxck longbows. They're only useful for pulling.

We discuss now on what is the best skin between the two bow (since he has all type of bow), not what type of bow are the best. RECURVE BOW IS THE BEST AMONG BOW WE ALL AGREE WITH THIS. (I HOPE)

I prefere longbow for sp barrage 'cause if the group is moving with the high arc size of fb there are a lot of possibility to miss them even i've more time to escape, so imho flatbow are the best for pulling.
In pve i like to play splinter barrage so longbow is quite good for me, but i must interrupt then switch to destroyer recurve.

Recurve

Looks better and more useful for PvP.

I would have to say Longbow, as I generally dislike the shorter bow styles.

In any case if you like long/hornbow skin and you would like interrupt you can use Read the Wind that cancel any difference with the recurve.
If you have all type of bow you should make your decision based on skin-like
