CARVER x GRLSWIRL 29.5" SILHOUETTE - LIMITED EDITION
If you've been anywhere near Instagram in the last 6 months, you'll likely already know of GrlSwirl. Think "when you turn a corner and see a group of girls bombing a hill". Well, I'd like to turn more corners and see that!! And so here it is. We'd like to support more, but the other limited edition GrlSwirl graphics are already sold out!
GRLSWIRL MISSION STATEMENT:
Our mission to empower women, trans folks & non-binary people through skateboarding begins and ends with our rigorous grassroots efforts. Not only do we want to bring more people to the sport, but we want them to feel empowered to face their fears, be themselves and step into their power.
We don't know if and when there will be another GrlSwirl collab so if it is something that interests you: don't dither :)
As for the board itself, it's fairly short as surfskates come at 29.5", designed with ladies in mind. The good width (9.75") is enough to provide confidence on the platform, whilst also being able to properly lean on the rails to get that surfskate motion going.
This setup has the Carver CX truck underneath. This is their updated and most popular model - always a good shout for tight turns with added versatility. If you're not sure which truck you want, we've reviewed the Carver C7 vs CX vs Landyachtz surfskate trucks to try and give you an idea of what the different systems offer.
The GrlSwirl Silhouette is a versatile surfskate that will work everywhere from the flat promenade to the slopey skatepark - from beginners to advanced users alike.
