Description

The C7 is the original Carver truck — the one that launched the surfskate movement in 1996. It's a traditional kingpin truck mounted on a pivoting swing arm, creating two independent axes of motion: the arm swings laterally while the truck itself leans through the kingpin. The result is a ride that feels strikingly similar to surfing — that smooth, lateral sway you feel as you pump for speed on a single-fin longboard.

The patented second axis doesn't just increase your turning radius — it lets you snap the nose and pivot your turns off the tail, creating thrust that drives you forward with increasing speed. Both axes are independently adjustable, giving you a wide range of fine-tuning to dial in your exact feel. Paired with the C2.4 rear truck, the C7 set has made surfskate training the choice of pros and amateurs alike.

You'll Love This If…
  • You want the smoothest, most surf-like feel on pavement.
  • You use surfskating as training for your surfing and want the closest replication of that feeling.
  • You prefer long, flowing turns and like to fine-tune your setup.

Dual-Axis Surf Motion

The swing arm and kingpin work together to create two dimensions of motion — sway and lean — for the closest thing to surfing on land.

Independently Adjustable Axes

Fine-tune the swing arm tension and kingpin lean separately to dial in exactly the ride you want — from loose and flowy to tighter and more controlled.

Smooth, Drawn-Out Turns

The fluid lateral sway of the swing arm creates long, flowing arcs — smooth, connected, and expressive.

The Surf Trainer's Choice

The striking similarity to shortboard surfing performance has made the C7 the go-to setup for surf training among pros and amateurs worldwide.

Matched C2 Rear Truck

Comes paired with the C2.4 rear truck for a complete, balanced setup that's fluid and responsive from the first push.
