Step 1: Select Your Surfskate Deck

Browse our extensive collection of premium surfskate decks from top brands, including Soulboardiy, Whitetail, Zenit, Carver, and Yow. We also offer longer wheelbase skateboard decks from brands like Alva, Madrid, and SMA, specially curated for their compatibility with surfskate trucks. Some decks will clearly show that they come pre-gripped, but if yours doesn’t, explore our collection of surfskate appropriate griptape options.

Step 2: Choose Your Surfskate Trucks

Next, select your preferred surfskate trucks from our high-quality range, featuring brands like Grasp, Curfboard, Yow, Carver, and Waterborne. These surfskate trucks provide the agile turning and maneuverability that define the surfskate experience. Each truck set includes both front and rear trucks, mounting hardware as well as risers ensuring compatibility with standard surfskate sized wheels.

Step 3: Pick Out Your Surfskate Wheels

Choose from our collection of surfskate wheels, with options from top brands such as Orangatang, Surfskate Love, Carver, Yow, Bones, and Powell Peralta. Our recommendations:

  • 69-70mm wheels with a durometer of 78-83a for longer rides and cruising.
  • 60-62mm wheels with an 85-93a durometer for skateparks and pump tracks.
  • 65mm wheels with a durometer of 78-83a for versatile, all-around performance.

Each wheel option provides different performance benefits, so choose the set that best suits your riding style and environment.

Step 4: Select Surfskate Bearings

Your bearings are crucial to a smooth ride, so choose from our top-quality selection, including brands like Zealous, Waterborne, Bones, Carver, and Loaded. All our bearings come with built-in half spacers to manage the unique lateral pressures surfskating places on bearings, enhancing durability and ride quality.

Step 5: Add Optional Surfskate Accessories

Finish your build with optional accessories for a fully customized experience. We offer aftermarket parts like Riptide bushings and pivot cups, which enhance responsiveness, and angled risers such as our Curfboard wedge kit. Consider adding a surfskate tool from Carver or Yow for easy adjustments on the go.
