DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A Lost-designed board
The deck features the iconic design of Lost Hydra surfboards, complete with a fish tail shape and a generous 10.5-inch width. At 29 inches long with a 16-inch wheelbase, it offers superb handling and is easy to take anywhere. Designed by Carver, this board promises flawless reliability and durability, thanks to its seven-ply maple construction.
The CX truck system in detail
The CX is Carver's innovative single-axis system. Its patented geometry positions an inverted kingpin at 90 degrees. This allows the hanger to pivot significantly more than a classic skate truck, and a precision pivot ensures immediate response when loaded. Carver likens the ride feel to that of a modern thruster surfboard: expect sharp turns, clean cut-backs, and fast, progressive riding. With fewer moving parts, it also requires less care than the C7 and matches the weight of a traditional truck. This makes it the ideal choice for shortboard surfers and riders who frequently hit the skatepark for transitions or aerials. The rear truck is a Carver C2 truck.
Original setup
Your board arrives fully assembled and ready to ride. It ships from the factory with 70 mm 78a Roundhouse Mag wheels, Carver ABEC 7 bearings integrated directly into the wheel, two 3/16-inch Carver risers (3/8-inch total), and 1.25-inch Carver countersunk mounting hardware. Roundhouse wheels are Carver's in-house line, specifically designed for surfskate. Their profile and compound prioritize grip when loaded and smooth rolling over pure speed. Nothing needs to be added or reassembled; just take the board out of the box and hit the pavement.
CX or C7: which to choose?
The CX truck system is specially designed for versatile surfskate riding. It's perfect for cruising sessions and surf training, and it remains accessible for a beginner rider who wants to carve. This board comes complete and ready to use. Carver itself summarizes the choice between its two systems: the CX offers livelier rail engagement, while the C7 provides a smoother, more extended surf feel. This model is available with both setups. If you're unsure, give us a call: we'll guide you based on your program, usual terrain, and surf practice.
