Wing Skate Preview
by Connor
Taken to the streets I was blown away with the wind carver board. The set up was easy and the board rides great. Having a little skateboard background is key for set up and maneuverability. The wheels are great for riding over rough terrain. The parking lot I tested the product on had cracks, sand covered patches and small stones but the board was able to go through all that with little worry. Some things you might want to know for riding the Wind Carver with a wing are;
- Clip on a helmet
- Find a open spot with wind
- Watch out for others constantly
- Grab some wind and ride
All the tools are included with the package, there is a set up video on our website that is easy to follow. I just got into wing boarding and this product helped me learn what to do with a wing while going fast. I was used to riding the Slingshot Crossbreed with limited turning but this was a great level up. I can now make tacks up and down wind, ride in figure eight patterns, and even put the wing to my back and fly straight downwind. Thank you for reading my review and I hope this helped get you stoked to try this fun sport.
Board Detail and Specs
Wind Carver Longboard
The Wind Carver is the ideal longboard skateboard for cruising, carving, land paddling, and Wingboarding or Kiteboarding on Land. It's an exhilarating longboard to ride that "feels" like riding waves on asphalt and is easy and fun to ride even if you've never been on a skateboard before.
The Wind Carver'ss unique 7" diameter wheels float over cracks and small rocks that would stop smaller wheels while the flat profile and sharp edge tires provide excellent grip to the ground. The larger and dropped deck gives riders a wider and more stable stance. The deck is made of bamboo outside and Canadian maple inside with a layer of fiberglass for added stiffness for the perfect balance of flex, durability, and stiffness and and clear sand finished grip on top.
