PRODUCT DETAILS
This is the signature truck that started it all. Still the smoothest turning, fastest pumping surf truck ever, it's at the leading edge of true surfskate performance. The patented second axis of this front truck not only increases the turning radius of our carve, but lets you snap the nose and pivot your turns off the tail. This dynamic creates thrust and drives you forward with increasing speed. The striking similarity to surfing performance has made the C7 the choice for surf training by pros and ams alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish and the Carver CX truck set?
The Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish features a patented dual-axis front truck with an internal spring-loaded swivel arm paired with a C2.4 rear truck, delivering a fluid, sweeping turn mechanism engineered for low-speed pumping and surf training. Conversely, the Carver CX utilizes a single-axis reverse-kingpin bushing design that provides a lighter, snappier lean optimized for skateparks, bowls, and higher-speed transition riding. The adjustable spring mechanism on the front C7.4 truck allows riders to tune turning resistance with a single tension bolt, whereas adjusting the CX relies on changing urethane bushing durometers.\n\n
What deck width, wheelbase, and wheels work best with the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish?
The Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish features a 9-inch axle width and a 2 7/8-inch truck height, making it ideal for surfskate decks between 8.5 and 10 inches wide. Pairing this truck set with a deck wheelbase between 15 and 19 inches allows the dual-axis swivel arm to generate smooth pumping momentum and tight, continuous carves. The included two 3/16-inch gasket riser pads and 1 1/2-inch black hardware provide necessary deck clearance to help prevent wheelbite when using standard surfskate wheels up to 70 mm in diameter.\n\n
Is the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish suitable for beginners and flat-ground surf practice?
The Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish is highly suitable for beginners learning to pump as well as surfers seeking realistic dry-land carving practice. Its patented second axis on the C7.4 front truck allows riders to generate forward thrust from a complete standstill through body rotation rather than foot pushing. While the active swivel mechanism requires more focus at higher speeds than a standard skateboard truck, it offers exceptional low-speed maneuverability and fluid rail-to-rail transitions on flat pavement and gentle inclines.\n\n
What components and hardware are included in the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish?
The Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish comes complete with one 6.5-inch C7.4 front truck, one 6.5-inch C2.4 rear truck, two 3/16-inch gasket riser pads, and one set of 1 1/2-inch black mounting hardware. The C7.4 front truck includes a 0.375-inch 95A conical top bushing and a 0.55-inch 95A barrel bottom bushing, while the C2.4 rear truck uses a 0.58-inch 89A conical top bushing and a 0.65-inch 89A barrel bottom bushing. Manufactured from heat-treated aircraft-grade industrial recycled A356 aluminum with a Rockwell T6 rating, the hanger, swivel arm, and baseplate are backed by a lifetime guarantee.\n\n
How do riders adjust and maintain the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish?
Tuning the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish is accomplished by turning the rear spring bolt on the C7.4 front baseplate to adjust spring tension, tightening it for increased stability or loosening it for easier low-speed pivoting. Riders can further customize turn responsiveness by adjusting the standard kingpin nuts on the front and rear trucks or swapping the stock urethane bushings. Maintenance for the Carver C7 Truck Set 6.5" - Raw Finish involves periodically checking hardware tightness and applying light silicone grease to the internal spring link and pivot cup to eliminate noise and maintain smooth articulation.\n\n
