Synergy Session 1. An early impression and review.
Welcome to the first synergy session. Synergy skate trucks are a prototype truck from Shanghai, China, made by Kaiyuan Wang. After making this video I am convinced that this is the next big thing in the surfskate world, for the following reasons,
-Consistent and better controlled four wheel slides
-Increased pumping speeds especially in the skatepark.
- Very. customizable, with different pivot cup technology and assorted rear truck angles to choose from
- highly maneuverable and stable on flat ground (360 slides and spins) (increased control while riding switch, depending on truck setup)
More to come...
Stay tuned for more synergy sessions where we will have experts from other fields of skating and people with a higher technical understanding of truck features, review this truck
The board ridden is the Skim Chaser viper, Available now!

To celebrate the release of the Atlas board, id decided to drop a little video showing some of my progression in surf skating since the first prototype. Enjoy!
The 6 Foot Surfskate Longboard. Skim Chaser Skateboards
zhlédnutí 315Před měsícem
I have been working hard on quite a few new skateboard shapes. Since Im working on a new line of Longboard Surfskates, I figured now is the perfect time to drop a video to remember all the great times I've had on the original 6 foot longboard. For the new longboards I'm planning to get a lot more hands on as far as shaping goes. This means a lot more hand carving, which will allow me to get a l...
The Carver Surfrider Surfskate Review
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 2 měsíci
I jumped on the carver Surfrider because im a huge fan of mini and extra long surfskates. This is what I thought after one day of riding. Let me know if you would like to see it tested in a different environment, or if you have any different questions about this board!
The Surfskate Slide Guide. Backside slides

Todays video talks about different in depth tips for learning Backside Stand up slides on a surfskate. I am riding a Soulboardiy deck, with Grasp trucks. For Learning I would suggest Powell Peralta rat bones or dragon formula wheels. Any smaller wheel (60 mm), with a slightly more narrow contact patch, and rounded lips would be also be ideal. Good luck, let me know if you have any questions! Ep...
Concrete King tides (epic surfskating spots)

Re uploading this because it got deleted off the surfskate love channel. This video really marked a new era of pushing myself to try bigger terrain on a surfskate. The term King tide is commonly used to refer to some of the biggest tides and waves that occur on the oregon coast. I was always desperate to skimboard the backwash siders off the jetty by my house. The problem was that in the winter...

Me and my partner took a trip across the country last year to visit her family. We took Callie and Chester who is our new kitten we got right before the trip. We figured traveling would be a great opportunity to ease him into the life of adventure at a young age. It worked out great!! I used my Soulboardiy and a waterborne surf skate adapter. The wheels used are called XT wheelz. It's such a gr...

Extreme Surfskating. Waterborne Skateboards edit. Every board ridden in this video has a waterborne surf adapter on the front. Waterborne really Is it's own unique skateboarding experience. On top of that each board setup you slap an adapter on becomes it own one of kind ride. In a couple clips I rode a wooden plank I bought at Home Depot up a 15 to 20 foot ramp.

Downhill moments. Testing out the new board. Blaze deck, venom magnums, bear smokies trucks.
zhlédnutí 34Před rokem
I just got this new board setup with a landyatchz blaze deck, Bear Smokies trucks, Venom Magnums, and Bones ceramic bearings. The setup was inspired by what I saw at the Tabor Downhill Challenge. This board is crazy and I love it. It feels super stable and even if you do get wobbles you can ride them out fairly smoothly by placing more weight on your front foot. Naturally with a more narrow dec...

Downhill Longboarding. Mount Tabor Downhill Challenge
zhlédnutí 391Před rokem
I recently decided to get back into downhill longboarding after hearing about the return of the Mount Tabor Downhill Challenge. The event sparked my passion of longboarding once again. Things got pretty crazy on the 2nd run when a buddy of mine ran into me from behind a little too hard and his board almost flew into a small child. I would not recommend bringing small children to this event!!!! ...
Big wave surfskating with a 6 foot longboard. Super bank session 1. wedge skimboarding.
zhlédnutí 166Před 2 lety
Me and a couple buddies took some surf skates to the Irvine Super bank next to the San Diego Creek. I took the 6 foot longboard with waterborne adapters down each bank. The feeling you get taking it down each bank was absolutely unreal. It cuts down the bank like butter and it feels a lot like you’re surfing at the wedge or something. Speaking of the wedge, we drove over afterwards for a skim b...

Absolute unit of a board! Wicked design, excited to see where it goes! Cant wait to shred one 🤙🏻
can you get SurfskateLove or markthelandlockedsurfer to review this deck???
The viper is for high preformance sliding, which mark and Steve don’t do… so they unfortunately would not be the best to review this. Also surfskate love is notoriously dishonest about his product reviews. So unfortunately we will be going a very different direction with marketing and reviews on this board. Appreciate the suggestion!
this is so raaaad!
Why you couldn’t have just linked this directly? Reddit loser
Great suggestions about foot position. Very confusing coming from a snowboard. I got a skateboard and a surfskate. Would you say sliding is easier or harder on the surfskate?
initiating a small slide on flat or doing slides on ramps can be a lot easier on a surfskate. doing long slides or slides at higher speeds are easier on longboards
@@skimchaser8837 thank you 🔥
these look like a lot of fun to tweak on and try different settings
Never saw this kind of trucks before. Thx for sharing!👍🏽
Wow very interesting 💪😎 How you would compare it to carver trucks 🤙?
They preform better than the carver trucks in every aspect. They are also more customizable, so instead of buying a cx and a c5, you can buy a pair of synergy trucks and get the same experience.
Please eat some red meat
lol I literallty do all the time
Where can I buy a set of those trucks?
Sick vid dude. Thanks for being one of the only people reviewing this board. Did you adjust the trucks upon receiving it?
sir please can you compare with meraki?
The skating was better than the review. I appreciate the simplicity of grasp
its a complicated system. its gonna take more than a night to do an extensive review
Rad stuff broski
Awesome clip, Dude!
my atlas hasn't been ridden that hard yet🙃. I must give it a try😉
Super rad!! Ive been drooling over the Atlas for a while, I'd love to try one some day 😻
Nice review. I've learned to appreciate the narrow boards. They can provide that same sharp turn radious with a completely different geometry and feel. This Carver, definitely pulls it off.
More video on this board please
The Pastsy Cline is killing it
Patsy cline and connie Francis forever!!!!!
I just got one and was surprised - looks like there’s no finish on the sides or top. Is that how yours is??
yeah there's defiantly problems with the deck itself. I do like the trucks tho. the deck is a carver pet project. I don't know where they get their decks and I don't know how it's affordable to be chopping down an already finished deck to sell to the public. it's probably because they charge so much..
Excellent review.
Big help! Thank you! Favorite wheels so far for a good slide but grip when pumping hard?
This is so sick! Lemme know when the boards drop!!!
Between the off-road slides, the canal brooming, and the bowl action I never failed to remember that a six foot board might as well be me with trucks between my teeth and tied around my ankles lmao
🔥WoW💥
Gonna need to watch this clip several times, Dude! Congratz!
WoW
WoW
Thanks for hopping on this quick to give us an overview, I think I've seen your videos elsewhere before, your slides on banks are sick af 10 degree dewedge on the rear truck makes the C5 a very speedworthy truck set! Plus a change of bushings. I'm stoked to try these narrow ones out soon 🤙
Thanks!! I appreciate that suggestion. im gonna give that a try
backsides look better than frontsides
Great content, looking forward to learning slides on banks/bowls etc
Thanx 📽. It's so great. Great shots. Best Surfskater❤
Love your insight and much appreciated 💗 keep rolling my friend we love to see ya do your thing!!
Thank you so much!
Came here for the scenery. Left with an urgent and nearly unquenchable desire for big off road wheels like those.
An absolute honor to learn from the best! Your slides are always sooo silky smooth and controlled. When I want to learn slides that are real, and sustainable, I come here ONLY! Keep up the amazing work!
Gosh y'all are gonna make me cry over here hahaha. Thank you dude
Your wall riding is so sick! Could you make a video just about extra steep slopes???
Absolutely!! There is so much that goes into some of those slides. Im hoping that after we get though a few episodes of this slide guide, that I will be able to share enough knowledge for the steeper and more complicated slides to be more approachable. Some of those slides are pretty dangerous ngl. The one thing I can recommend is to watch these in order, because the information will build off the last video. Ill start leaving the episode number in the video description👍🏻 Stay tuned
Awesome!
THANK YOU❤
Thank you for appreciating it❤
best video about sliding on a surfskate, sam!❤ I was watching only downhill content to learn sliding before. This is the first one on surfskates I highly recommend. Thank you for mentioning this kooky „hands up in the air“ thingy. Every time i see those hands i skip to the next video. 😅
Hahaha. Thank you!! I do my best.
amazing and creative, love it
Where is that track at?
It annoys me that it has taken CZcams many months to finally feed this video in to my search results. This is easily the best example of waterborne versatility and overall shred, if not the best surfskate video in general on CZcams. I need more!
haha thank you so much. New video today on surfskate love's channel. I hope you enjoy it.
You're doing all the set ups I've been wanting to try out. Have you considered putting two front waterborne adapters on one board? One on the front and one on the back.
yes it is pretty fun, but unpredictable and dangerous!
Dope
everyone has a classic Oregon tuck! Keep it tiny.
side snarl....nawwww right lip curl.
