Carver’s new Mini Series is designed for younger and lighter riders who want the same high-performance surfskate experience in a board scaled to their size. The Zapper Snapper features bright, fun graphics and comes complete with Carver’s low-profile C5 truck set, 84a Medium Carver bushings, and 60mm/81a Roundhouse wheels. Engineered for easy pushing and smooth carving, this board sits lower to the ground, reducing rail resistance and making it effortless to turn with less weight and effort.
The softer bushings enhance maneuverability, allowing riders to flow through turns with ease. Despite its compact size, the deck is pressed in 7-ply maple, providing the durability and support needed for full-sized riders who want to join in on the fun. Like a crack of lightning, the Zapper Snapper zips down the street, leaving seared wheel marks in its wake. It’s a jolt of energy packed into a small but mighty surfskate that even parents might want to take for a spin—if their kid lets them.

CARVER C5 TRUCK:
Skateboarding’s evolution is a testament to human inventiveness and the relentless pursuit of progression. From its humble beginnings as a pastime for surfers seeking to emulate the feeling of riding waves on land, skateboarding has grown into a vibrant culture of its own, characterized by its rich history of tricks, techniques, and innovative equipment.
The introduction of the C5 Truck System marks a significant milestone in the ongoing evolution of surfskate technology. Born from a deep understanding of skateboarding’s history and the desire to push boundaries, this system embodies the spirit of creativity and experimentation that defines the sport.
Crafted from aircraft-grade, industrial recycled A356 aluminum and heat-treated to Rockwell T6 standards, the C5 Truck System is not only durable but also environmentally conscious. Its shorter and narrower design lowers the center of gravity, resulting in enhanced pop and improved control. This allows riders to execute tricks with greater precision and finesse, while still maintaining the fluidity of motion essential for carving and pumping.
The patented geometry of the C5 Truck System, combined with its hollow axles and kingpins, represents a leap forward in surfskate technology. These innovations result in a truck that is not only lightweight and maneuverable but also incredibly strong and versatile. Riders can confidently explore new terrain and push their limits knowing that their equipment can keep up with their ambitions.
