DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A True Fishbeard Shape
The deck perfectly captures the lines of the Channel Islands Fishbeard, delivering a ride that feels just like a surfboard. The wide fish tail generates power through turns while the narrow nose allows for quick transitions. On the pavement, this means fluid carves and efficient pumping, making it the ideal tool for dialling in your style between surfs.
Snappy Drive and Control with Carver CX Trucks
Carver CX trucks deliver a snappy, responsive drive out of every turn and offer incredible control. You'll feel the board react instantly underfoot, letting you link deep carves and cutbacks without losing speed. This setup is engineered to perfectly mimic the dynamic feel of surfing.
Roundhouse Concave Wheels for Grip and Speed
The 69mm 78A Roundhouse concave wheels provide excellent grip and a smooth, fast roll on different surfaces. They let you lay into hard carves with confidence and keep your flow for everything from technical moves to just cruising the streets.
Designed for Surf Training
With a 15.5" wheelbase and a durable maple deck, the CI Fishbeard is built for energy return and stability. It's the perfect platform for practising key surf mechanics like compression, extension, and body positioning to generate speed. It’s the best way to keep your muscle memory sharp between sessions in the water.
Materials and Finish
The deck is built from maple for the right blend of stiffness and durability needed for hard training. The griptape provides solid traction while still allowing for easy foot adjustments, and the bearings guarantee a smooth, quiet roll.
Usage and Versatility
Use it to train for surfing, dial in your style, or just cruise through town. The Carver x Channel Islands CI Fishbeard is ready. Its compact outline allows for tight, responsive turns while remaining stable and smooth at speed.
