This is Carver's hybrid surf and skate truck. On the one hand it's a lightweight standard Reverse King Pin 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.
