Carver Skateboards - 31" Kai Lenny Lava - CX Complete

Kai created this Lava pattern for his upcoming surfboard quiver and wanted to use it on this mid-sized mainstay too, pressed in the Hyperspoon mold for a deep-dish spoon nose contoured for your carving pleasure.

Maui native Kai Lenny defies easy categorization, having truly mastered so many board riding disciplines that listing them all seems impossible; Surf, Hydrofoil, Kite, Windsurf, Stand Up Paddle, Prone Paddle, Outrigger Canoe, Big Wave Tow-In, and now Surfskate. A first to do many things, break records and exceeds the imaginable over and over, this Surfing Hall of Famer is widely considered one of the best waterman in history. So when we saw him surfskating on his own Carver with his inimitably bold style we were stoked. Kai is a true aloha ambassador, and we’re proud to have him help spread the surfskate stoke with his sunny smile and charging feats.

This opens up aerial maneuvers, and keys in with the latest progression of airs in surfing
