For our Spring 2025 Artist Series boards, we chose to collaborate with Adam Nienow, whose hand-crafted illustrations perfectly capture the essence of surfskating. His focus on simplicity and attention to detail aligns seamlessly with Carver's visual style, creating a powerful connection between art and motion. Adam, a surfer and skater himself, brings his personal experience to the designs, infusing them with authentic energy and passion. The bold colours and embellished details celebrate the vibrant spirit of our community, making each board a piece of art in motion.

The Adam Nienow Mariposa is designed for speed, agility, and effortless manoeuvrability, making it perfect for snappy rides and sharp turns. The board’s shape enhances responsiveness, allowing for a fluid skating experience that mirrors the freedom of shortboard surfing. Adorned with a butterfly motif, the artwork is brought to life with metallic inks, which highlights the intricate linework and adds a shimmering depth to Nienow's artistic design.

This is the CX complete: deck, trucks, wheels and bearings fully assembled and ready to ride out of the box.

CX trucks explained

CX trucks — Carver's hybrid surf/skate truck. A lightweight reverse-kingpin design with Carver's patented geometry, so it still pumps and carves like a surfskate, but feels tighter and more stable at speed, landing airs and riding fakie. Expect snappier rail-to-rail response — a great choice if you also like parks, bowls and faster riding.

About Carver

Carver was born in Venice Beach, California in 1996, when surfers Neil Carver and Greg Falk got tired of waiting for waves and built a skateboard truck that could carve, pump and snap like a surfboard. Thirty years on, Carver surfskates are ridden by surfers of every level around the world to keep their surfing sharp on flat days.
