Surfskate or skateboard: what's the difference?
The surfskate has a pivoting front truck: it lets you build speed by pumping, without ever pushing, and link up tight turns just like on a wave. It's the ideal training tool for surfers when the ocean is flat — and a brilliant entry point into board sports for everyone else. Our four 31″ models (Timber, Horizon, Seaweed, Foam) share the same foundation: comfortable concave deck, surf trucks, soft high-grip wheels. To get started, begin on a smooth, flat surface with knees bent, and initiate the movement with your shoulders: the board follows, and the legs relaunch it. It's all explained step by step in our beginner surfskate buying guide, our how to surfskate tutorial, and our pumping guide. Designed in Hossegor, tested on the Landes coast.
