Surfskate / Carver DIY (3 wheels)

Original video in italian:    • Surfskate fai date con 25 euro  

Perfect 3 wheels surfskate made with skate's leftovers on a budget of 25 euros. This DIY surf trainer very easy to make is actually a challenging one to ride for non surfers, will definitively improve your balance and confidence on the surf board, while if you are a surfer will bring back on land the joy of many aspect of surfing.

Surf style skate trucks (carver cx and c7, v-truck, smoothstar, yow) are a great invention, but still too much expensives and in many area due to economy and politics so many people wouldn't have ever access to them. This almost forgotten three wheeler surftrainer is not just super cheap and easy to make, but even a better surf trainer than most of the other on the market.

Materials:

- old cruiser board
- 1 wide revers kingpin truck

- forniture swivel wheel support

- 2 70 mm 78a longboard wheel

- 1 rollerblade or scooter wheel (as soft as possible)

- 1 plastic chop board (to cut in small layers in order to build an angled riser)

- long skate hardware

- gigsaw, sander, paint and griptape

This is a surf trainer and not the safest cruiser, however is super fun having as transportation a board where you actually would never have to push, not even on up hill
