The Carson Proteus
David Carson has been pushing the boundaries of graphic design for decades, and created some of his most iconic work while telling stories of surf and skate in such seminal publications as Transworld Skateboarding and Surfer Magazine. He’s also been a lifelong surfer and skater, so it’s fitting that he would design a model for Carver. Showcasing his signature style of intuitive collage, Carson tells a story within a single image, here evoking a dreamlike sense of oceanic memory. Set on a mid-sized Carver Proteus shape, it provides lots of front foot area so you can really spread your feet out for a proper surfboard stance.
C7 Truck
The C7 is the signature truck that started it all. Still the smoothest turning, fastest pumping surf truck ever, it's at the leading edge of true surfskate performance. The patented second axis of this front truck not only increases the turning radius of our carve, but lets you snap the nose and pivot your turns off the tail. This dynamic creates thrust and drives you forward with increasing speed. The striking similarity to surfing performance has made the C7 the choice for surf training by pros and ams alike.
The CX Truck
The CX is Carver's hybrid surf and skate truck. On the one hand it's a lightweight standard Reverse Kingpin hanger and base, on the other it has a patented geometry that squeezes every bit of turn and pump from its simple design. That 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. This original Carver design is quickly becoming the most popular surfskate truck in the world.
