Carver Skateboards

Carver Skateboards is the pioneer of the surfskate movement, having invented the specialized 'truck' system that allows a skateboard to be pumped and carved like a surfboard. Founded in Venice, California, during a summer of no surf, the brand focused on creating a street-surfing experience that mimics the mechanics of ocean waves.

While the high-performance trucks and specialized components are largely engineered and assembled in the United States to maintain quality control, some components and deck materials may be sourced from international suppliers. The brand remains a dominant force in the global action sports market, maintaining its independence and core identity within the skating community.
