CX TRUCKS
This is Carver’s hybrid surf and skate truck. On the one hand it’s a lightweight standard RKP (Reverse King Pin) hanger and base, on the other it has a patented geometry that squeezes every bit of turn and pump from the system. This means that you can pump this truck like a C7, but it lands airs and rides fakie with more stability as well. This opens up aerial maneuvers, and keys in with the latest progression of airs in surfing.
Carver Surfskates
Den originale Surfskaten siden 1996.
Alt begynte en stille sommer i Venice, California i 1995. Greg Falk og Neil Carver hadde surfet hele vinteren og gledet seg til å surfe seg gjennom de varme sommerdagene ved Breakwater, men det var paddeflatt. Ikke engang en longboardbølge som kunne rettferdiggjøre å bli våt. Så, som de mange generasjonene før dem, tok de til gatene med skateboard på jakt etter bakker å surfe i. De historiske nabolagene Venice og Santa Monica er nærmest en skatepark i seg selv med bratte smug og skråninger, og da de satte utfor disse asfaltsbølgene, ble de slått av hvor ulikt surfing det var.
Det trengtes noe lateral bevegelse, mer som å dra nesen sidelengs mens man fortsatt er fullstendig i kontakt med asfalten. For å oppnå dette, trengtes det en slags fleksibel arm som tillot denne laterale bevegelsen, og etter utallige skisser, sveiset de sammen den første Carver-prototype trucken i den forfalne garasjen bak Neil's hus.
Det har gått over 20 år siden den flate sommeren, og Carver er fortsatt i full gang og vokser fortsatt. Carver fortsetter å lage det mest pålitelige amerikansk-lagde surfskate-utstyret tilgjengelig, utvikle banebrytende innovasjoner og drive fremgang for alle dedikerte surfere som stoler på vårt utstyr for surfetrening og ikke minst er ute etter en morsom måte å surfe gatene på.
