Carver 25" Master Blaster C5 Complete Surfskate

Carverʼs new Mini Series surfskate has been designed to fit the younger and lighter rider looking for the same high-performance Carver experience in a board scaled down to their size. With bright, fun graphics. The Master Blaster comes complete with our low-profile C5 truck set, 81a Soft Carver bushings, and 60mm/81a durometer Roundhouse wheels. The result is a surfskate thatʼs lower to the ground so itʼs easier to push, and is set up with softer bushings to loosen the rail resistance so it takes less weight and effort to carve a turn. It is also pressed in 6 ply maple to scale it down to grom-weight.

Skateboarders have invented many great tricks since the early days, and a truly modern surf skate needs to incorporate this history of progression. And so the C5 System (C5 front, C4 rear) is shorter and narrower, lowering the center of gravity and giving the tail more pop. You get higher ollies, and better control.

And the narrower hanger and deck keep it light and maneuverable. This is the next generation of surfskate, blending tricks and flow into a complex, creative expression across the urban landscape. We’ve made two completes with an equally versatile street board mold made to give you the best of both worlds.

Carver Surfskate originated from the passion of two Venice, California surfers, Greg Falk and Neil Carver. In 1995, during a wave-less summer, they sought a way to replicate surfing on land. Traditional skateboards failed to mimic the fluid motion of surfing. This limitation led them to innovate. 

Determined to capture the essence of surfing, Greg and Neil experimented with skateboard designs. They realized that enhancing the front truck's maneuverability was crucial. This insight prompted the development of a unique truck system. 

In 1996, they introduced the C7 truck. This dual-axis system allowed fluid, surf-like movements on pavement. The C7's design enabled riders to pump and carve, generating speed without pushing. 

The C7's success marked a turning point in skateboarding. It bridged the gap between surfing and skateboarding, attracting both communities. Carver's commitment to quality and innovation resonated with riders worldwide.

Building on the C7's success, Carver continued to innovate. They introduced the CX truck, a reverse-kingpin system offering a snappier ride. The CX provided a lighter, more responsive experience, appealing to a broader audience. 

Carver's product line expanded to include various board shapes and sizes. Collaborations with brands like ...Lost and Channel Islands showcased their versatility. These partnerships blended surfboard design with skateboarding technology.

The company's influence extended beyond products. Carver played a pivotal role in popularizing surfskate culture. Their boards became training tools for surfers and a new avenue for skaters. This cross-pollination enriched both sports.

Carver's dedication to community is evident through events and collaborations. They sponsor riders and support grassroots movements, fostering a global surfskate community. This engagement has cultivated a loyal following.

Over the years, Carver's designs have evolved, incorporating new materials and technologies. However, their core mission remains: to deliver the surfing experience on land. This focus has solidified their position as industry leaders.

In recent years, surfskating has experienced a resurgence. Carver's early innovations laid the foundation for this growth. Their commitment to authenticity continues to inspire new generations of riders.

Today, Carver Surfskate stands as a testament to innovation driven by passion. From humble beginnings, they've shaped a global movement, uniting surfers and skaters alike. Their journey reflects the enduring spirit of creativity in action sports.
