Surf skate is a type of skateboard that simulates the feeling of surfing on land. It’s designed to mimic the turns and maneuvers of surfing, and it’s a popular training tool for surfers looking to improve their skills.

A Surf Skate typically has a pivoting truck that allows the rider to perform turns and carve just like a surfboard, allowing the rider to practice their footwork, balance, and timing. Some surf skate also have a spring-loaded mechanism to simulate the feeling of a wave.

Some surfers use Surf Skate as a way to practice their turns and maneuvers when the surf is flat or when they can’t make it to the ocean. It’s also a fun way to enjoy the surf lifestyle when the waves are not good.

It’s also becoming a popular sport on its own with competitions and events being held worldwide, Surf Skate is a fun and challenging way to experience the feeling of surfing without being in the water.

Right now, Valerio, from Malta surf school gives wicked surf-skate lessons in car parks dotted around the island so slide in his DMs to get a lesson booked.
