The Wave, the original Street Surfing board

If you’re out on the streets and looking to impress, you want to make sure you can perform some cool and risky tricks. In this past, this could only be done if you were a skateboarder or could pull off impressive tricks on your bike at the park. If you were a surfer at the beach you would get all the attention if you could ride the waves without falling off. There’s a new way to get noticed. It’s a blend of surfing and skateboarding and it’s making everyone’s heads turn.

Note, using a Street Surfing Board might be dangerous for your (small) child. Take care about enough body protection parts to prevent injuries!

Ever heard about Street Surfing?

Street Surfing came out of California. This is the easiest way to picture it if you haven’t seen it before: Street Surfing is to Skateboarding as roller blades are to roller skates. The original Street Surfing Board has only has one row of wheels in the center of the board, allowing for faster acceleration, especially when you’re taking sharp corners and staying low to the ground.
Naturally, skateboarders are the ones who would be able to make a quick and easy move to the WAVE. A lot of skateboarders who make the transition do actually prefer the Street Surfing Board, simply because it allows for greater speed. The single set of wheels also makes it somewhat harder to master, meaning that when you do pull off the Ollies and 360s, you will get all the more attention. more…
