The Carver 30.5" Lost Puddle Jumper C7 Surfskate. We love these here at Vandem.
This is the CX edition with Carver CX trucks beneath it. The same deck is available with C7 trucks - if you've got this far without choosing which trucks you want, now is the time!
Newly graphic'd up for 2025 with a nice resin tint style finish.
What makes this one really stand out from the majority of surfskates out there is the lovely rockered deck.
Just like your concave is surrounding your feet, toe to heel, the rocker adds an extra dimension of comfort and confidence in your foot positioning. Like a hug for your feet.
And on a surfskate where you're putting so much force through them as you build speed and make turns, it feels just awesome to have that extra feedback and to know that your front foot especially is in the right spot to crank the trucks over - just like they're designed to be.
30.5" long is a fairly compact ride - together with the rocker your feet and knees will feel quite close together. Which feels rad, to be honest. Super stylish.
10.5" is pretty wide, but it doesn't hold that width throughout the board so don't worry, you don't need big feet to make it work!
Proper griptape which we always like to see on a surfskate - combined with that rocker, your feet aren't going anywhere. At least, nowhere they shouldn't be.
Inspired by the real Puddle Jumper surfboard from the mind of Matt Biolos. I've surfed one of these from junky Cornish beachies to delicious Moroccan pointbreaks and... they work! The surfskate edition is no exception. A great little rockered surfskate.
