C7 , CX 輪架介紹

C7 是雙軸設計裡面還有一個大彈簧華起來比較流暢,但角度會比較小,適合初學一點的,跟衝浪時的感受相較接近像是在玩復古的Single Fin. 如果在滑板場要玩U型滑板場,比較適合的C7,比較不會再迴轉的時候扭轉摔倒.

 C7轉動曲線更為滑順,額外提供旋轉動力,更多能夠轉彎時的續航力,像是衝浪板緣滑行在浪面上.

 

 

CX 是單軸設計 比較靈活跟衝浪比起來像是玩性能板,反應上更加迅速,可以練習更多犀利動作.

CX 增加迴轉角度,輪架增強彈性. 可更輕易增加速度,產生更多的推力.減少加速動作上距離所耗的距離及時間.

 

 

如何挑選板型

 

 

 

透過衝浪風格及常使用的衝浪板長度及板型,決定滑板板身的長度.

越長的板身,擁有更好的速度及穩定性.

越短的板身,迴轉半徑越小、角度越大，有較好的靈活性.

帶有Spoon Nose (寬圓板頭) Kick Tails (尾部翹斜面) 讓滑板更接近衝浪板的慣性.

Double Kick 的滑板,更適合滑板場,也更適合街頭滑板混合衝浪風格.

 

C7,CX Surf Truck

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.

The Carver CX.4 is brand new for 2013. We’ve made significant improvements to this front-only truck that gives it unprecedented thrust and pump, as well as increased turn radius and snap-back. With a few carves side to side you immediately begin to generate speed, and with a little more pumping you can gain significant speed. The thrust generated is so powerful you can even pump uphill. So whether you’re surfing the sidewalk, flowing through a skatepark or big-wave surfing downhill, you never have to put your foot down to make a section. For years many longboard companies have falsely claimed that their boards ‘feel just like surfing’, but we took that promise seriously. So while the CX may just look like a regular RKP (Reverse King Pin) style truck, the simple appearance of this patented surfkate hides its true performance. What you get is a truck that has all the thrust of a surfboard but with a lighter and more stable pushing platform. While these two properties would seem contradictory, through a careful pairing of both the thrust-prone geometry and a sculpted bushing cup that hugs the urethane bushings in just the right way, you get a truck that is both loose when you want to pump and stable when you want to push or land tricks. Plus without the swiveling arm of our C7 surf truck, the CX is both lighter and easier to ride fakie, opening up your ability to perform tricks involving reverse riding like 180 slides while still feeling that reverse-riding-surfboard feel.

Which board should I get?

Deciding on which board is right for you comes down to what kind of riding you want to do. The best rule of thumb is to pick your board according to the length of the wheelbase. The wheelbase, which is measured as the distance between the trucks, plays the most important part in the performance differences between the different models. The shorter the board, the easier it is to pump, while the longer the board the more stability is gains for speed and pushing. The shorter boards have a tighter turn radius and are very agile and so are great for flat land pumping and surfskating. The longer boards are good cruisers and can handle faster surfskating. The second factor is the shape of the template and mold. Spoon nosed models with kicktails are perfect surfskates and cruisers, while the double kick models are great for parks and street/surf hybrids.
