Surfskate skateboards

Surfskate skateboards in the Sportano shopSurfskate skateboards allow surf lovers to practice their skills and movements, even if they are far from the ocean. Thanks to their special design and mechanisms, these skateboards offer the unique experience of riding a wave but on tarmac. In the Sportano shop, you will find high-quality surfskate skateboards from professional brands such as Street Surfing, Cutback, Carver or Fish Skateboards.Construction and mechanism: what elements distinguish surfskate skateboards from traditional skateboards? When you look at a surfskate skateboard, you will immediately notice several characteristic differences compared to a classic skateboard. The key element that most distinguishes the surfskate is its special front truck with increased mobility. This unique torsion mechanism enables the rider to perform sharp turns and manoeuvres similar to those of a surfer on a wave. The deck in surfskate is often elongated, with bumps and indentations to mimic the shape of a surfboard and provide a better grip when performing manoeuvres. The wheels on a surfskate tend to be larger and wider, which translates into better grip and a smoother ride, especially during slides and turns. Another differentiator is the placement of the trucks - in surfskate they are often further out on the outside of the board, which increases the stability of the board and allows for wider turns. The materials used in surfskate are also chosen differently to traditional skateboards, with an emphasis on durability and flexibility, which are key during intense surf mimicking riding sessions. In summary, while a traditional skateboard is more versatile and serves a variety of riding styles, from street riding to skatepark tricks, surfskate is designed to mimic the feeling of riding a wave, which is evident in its unique construction and mechanism.Purpose and use: where best to ride on a surfskate? Surfskate is a unique type of skateboard that has been designed to simulate the feeling of surfing on land. Thanks to its specific design and torsion mechanism, riding it is smooth, dynamic and allows for a wide range of manoeuvres. But where is the best place to transfer this marine fun to the tarmac? The first and most important place is on smooth, wide pavements and park paths. They are ideal for beginners and advanced riders, allowing for easy turns, slides and carving. Particularly the paths along the waterfronts or city parks, which have longer stretches without obstacles, allow surfskating to reach its full potential. Car parks and playgrounds after work or school hours are other great places to practice surfskate techniques. They usually have plenty of space and are flat, which is ideal for practising basic manoeuvres and improving technique. For more advanced riders, empty, gently sloping streets or roads are ideal for riding at higher speeds and performing more complex manoeuvres. Hills and steep streets allow for a dynamic downhill ride, reminiscent of riding down a wave. Finally, specially designed pumptracks and skateparks can also be the place to go for surfskate, especially if you want to add some air and height to your tricks. Although not originally designed for surfskating, many of these venues offer unique challenges for riders. Surfskate is a versatile skateboard that will work well in many different environments. Choosing the right location mainly depends on your level of skill and what manoeuvres you want to practise. One thing is for sure: no matter which location you choose, surfskate will provide a unique riding experience.
