C7 Complete
The
Carver C7 is our Patented front truck designed to create the same fluid
dynamic for a skateboard that a surfboard has in the water. What gives
it this ability is the extra axis of movement provided by the truck's
rotating arm, giving the nose of the board lateral thrust, in addition
to the usual rail-to rail turn. With this extra turning capacity, the
back truck becomes a pivot from which to snap turns, the way fins hold
in the water while the surfboard's rocker slides on the surface of a
wave. This dynamic also creates the much sought after ability to pump
the board for speed, and is the feature unique to Carver that finally
delivers on the long-promised feel of surfing a skateboard. Riding
fakie is also like riding a surfboard, but backwards, where the nose
feels squirrelly, and for this reason the C7 is a front truck only. The
arm rotates smoothly on precision industrial thrust bearings, and is
dampened by a fully adjustable, heavy-duty internal die spring that
allows each rider to customize the feel of their board. But at its
core, the C7 is still a skateboard truck, with a traditional hanger and
standard mounting hole pattern that will fit any skateboard deck, while
preserving the original wheelbase.
CX Complete
The
Carver CX is our Patented front truck, designed to create the same
handling characteristics of surfing, but in a lighter, simpler
configuration. Five years in the making, it's the solution that bridges
the gap between a standard truck and our revolutionary C7. What we
wanted was a truck that shared the same sharp turning and lateral
thrust as the C7, but was a little stiffer, so it felt familiar to
skaters who weren't prepared for the extremely surfy feel of the C7 but
still wanted to snap their turns and pump for speed. By using a steep,
forward facing kingpin and setting the axle a little farther back,
we've managed to loosen up the geometry to give you unprecedented
maneuverability. Riding fakie is much easier on the CX than the C7, as
it is a much more stable truck, but we still recommend it as a front
truck only. On a shorter board it pumps fast, tight turns with ease,
and on a longer board the quick, solid handling opens up performance so
you can surf hills and banks with unprecedented fluidity and control.
