finally a truck with spherical bearings and super wide lean. I have been talking about this for years and there needs to be trucks more like slalom and LDP trucks but it went ignored. This looks like the first true high end truck for surfskating. it's overdue and it's time has finally come. Tried to speak to Surfskate Love on this years ago and he ignored it. I think what the difficulty is that most people are unaware of high end trucks and what they are and are suffice with mediocrity and become fanboys of brands and don't want to try anything else.
Great and welcomed review, excited to see new and further innovation in the surfskate scene. I like a more stable set-up for carving and the adjustable range on these trucks is spot-on!
Pretty cool! I'm already imagining a Whitetail Tigershark with 2 qwik truk plates on the rear, using a remora wheelbase extender. The furthest back would be installed facing the opposite way and be to go-to for a LDP setup.
I guess a more clear way to show the leaning and curving of trucks would be: - for the leaning to put the camera at the same eight of the table (or slightli above), filming one truck at the time from its middle, with a wall with a grid helping to notice better the leaning - for the curing same setup but with the grid on the table and the camera above a single truck at a time from their middle vertical axis
Did you say that the Synergy has Riptide bushings standard? Carver really ought to do that. I replace all of my Carver factory bushings with Riptides as SOP. My older Carver bushings cracked in the CX with a little casual use. Newer ones seem a little better but still have bubbles in the urethane. None of them rebound like the Riptides.
Very interested in this design, especially when comparing to, say, Waterborne's Dream Truck. One less kingpin should mean lighter, but how is the durability and modularity?
Hi Shane. Not sure how to reach out so sending msg here. I tried the infinity loop with the carver 29' (swallow) and 27' (mini simmon) set up with a C7 truck. And struggled. Then got my hands on a Carver CX 25' (octogoner, it is a model for kid). I managed to do the infinity loop relatively easily. What is your experience with smaller set ups? Do you find it easier or more difficult to execute the loops?
trucks look very promising and high quality. Hopefully they will not cost a fortune

That beautiful sound as he carves the park!
This truck system looks amazing! It's the first time I saw them.Thx for this review, Shane!
Interesting trucks! They seem like they would provide the rider with lots of options for adjustment. 👍👍

Whoa, these trucks look like a true game changer!

Looks good. Almost looks like a hybrid between a cx style and c7 style truck
Simplicity of CX with range similar to C7. Maybe the pump power of CX, too?
Hey Shane, thanks for a nice review. How do the Synergy trucks compare to the Long Island Genesis trucks? Regards, Hayward

How do they compare against smoothstar or YOW?
How much do they cost?
Hey Shane where can i buy one of these trucks?
Hello,I want to know how about the weight for truck ? comparison other two(cx and grasp) thank you very much
Front truck is 480g. Back truck is 498g.
Weight includes bushings, spacers and nut
Shane do you do some trick like kickflip?
@@shanelai2515thank you
Hello Shane, it's spherical pivot, not sperical bearing at 1mn.
Hey! It is indeed a spherical bearing that acts as the pivot cup
@@shanelai2515 yes just see it after, that's crazy on a surfskate truck, on see that on ldp trucks, thanks for the review!
only
@shane_lai is it better than the Grasp trucks, est-il meilleur que les trucks Grasp? , qui sont déjà meilleurs que les Carver CX.
