The Black Tip skateboard is a pinnacle of innovation, combining advanced features to elevate performance and durability. At its core lies Durafusion laminate, a robust thermoplastic layer fused beneath the board, delivering unmatched strength, responsiveness, and extended lifespan. Further enhancing its structural integrity are the embossed channels meticulously integrated into the tail.
Crafted with the revolutionary Hyperspoon mold design, the Black Tip boasts a deeper nose concave and steeper tail, ensuring riders maintain a firm and stable stance. Complementing this design are the winged rails and coarse deck pad, meticulously engineered to provide exceptional grip, empowering riders with precise control during even the most demanding maneuvers.
A standout feature of the Black Tip is its choice of Carver’s CX and C7 truck systems. Renowned for their ability to emulate the dynamic and responsive feel of surfing, these trucks enable riders to execute tight carves and seamless transitions, akin to the fluidity of riding waves. This characteristic makes the Black Tip a versatile tool, appealing to both surfers seeking to hone their skills on land and skateboarders looking to experience the exhilarating flow of surfing on asphalt.
In essence, the Black Tip transcends the conventional notion of a skateboard, embodying a fusion of durability, performance, and surf-like fluidity. Whether you’re a seasoned surfer craving land-based practice or a skateboarder eager to explore new dimensions of riding, the Black Tip stands ready to elevate your experience to new heights.

CARVER C7 TRUCK:
The Carver C7 Truck is Carver’s Patented front truck which is 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. As a result, this gives the nose of the board lateral thrust, in addition to the usual rail-to rail turn.
The C7 dual-axis truck set is very fluid, like riding a single fin surfboard and replicating the lateral sway you feel as you pump for speed. The dual axis allows the rider to adjust both axis independently for fine tuning. It’s a bit heavier than the CX truck, but the internal spring system allows for a wide range of adjustment. The trailing arm and wide adjustment range make this truck better for faster speeds and fluid surfing.The arm rotates smoothly on precision industrial thrust bearings, and is dampened by a fully adjustable, heavy-duty internal die spring. This allows each rider to customize the feel of their board. But at its core, the C7 is still a skateboard truck, with a traditional hanger and standard new-school mounting hole pattern ( 2.1”, or 2 3/32” long).
