There is nothing on the street that so closely emulates the feeling and "stoke" of surfing or snowboarding. There are so many down days when you just can't get a surf or snowboard session and you're just itching to get in some turns. With a little imagination and one of our boards, there is always a couple of feet of fresh powder or 6-8 foot glassy sets coming in right outside your door.

The idea was conceived by Brad and Joe Gerlach nearly nine years ago, with the main objective being to create a board which enabled beginners to pros, the ability to work on their surfing or snowboarding on the street. The traditional skateboards and all-terrain boards did not give you the turning radius, extreme rail to rail capabilities, or lateral grip which they envisioned for a true simulator.

The patented design for both the Carveboards™ and Carvestiks™ used years of research and development, while working with some of the top pros in both surfing and snowboarding feedback. Anyone who has had the opportunity to get a session on the boards walks away amazed and almost in disbelief. We hear it over and over, that the experience couldn't have been understood even in their wildest dreams, until they actually rode them.

The Carveboards™ and Carvestiks™ are so different in design and the way they perform, that the similarities between normal skateboards and their boards are only the fact that they have a wood deck, two trucks and four wheels - they are more a surf or snowboard for the street. All parts are from moulds designed just for our boards, and are made in the good ol' USA. Experience the ride and you will understand.
