A new addition to our Surf Skate line, the Surf Life borrows the same shape from our Ditch Life series for a retro 80s inspired look. Featuring the same truck and wheel set-up as our other Surf Skates but with a slightly bigger kicktail, this board is made to carve up anything.

One Board One Tree

To give back to the environment we have decided that for every skateboard we sell, we plant a tree. One tree produces at least 60 boards. So with our program, one tree will turn into at least 60 new trees planted.

100% Canadian Maple

Canadian Maple is a strong and proven material used in the world’s best skateboards. We source only the finest veneers found in Eastern Canada.

Kicktail

Take your skating into the third dimension with a kicktail. We design our kicktails to work perfectly with each deck shape as well as with the truck and wheel setup on each complete.

MEDIUM CAVE

The perfect middle ground, enough concave that you always feel glued to your board, but not too much to hurt your feet during a longer cruise.

MULTI WHEELBASE

Precisely dial in your ride with multiple mounting options for your trucks.

SOFT TOP GRIP

This grip tape has a layer of foam under its coarse top sheet. This helps hold your foot in place while reducing road vibration and creating an cushy, comfortable ride.

SURF SKATE

This set up combines our unique Bear Banger RKP front truck with a Polar Bear 155 in the rear for the ultimate surfy ride.

Length: 31.6"

Featuring the same super popular shape as our Ditch Life series, the Surf Life boards have a wide nose with a healthy taper and deep kicktail. 7-ply maple construction keeps the ride nice and responsive while mellow concave and a deep kicktail will keep your feet locked in for whatever obstacle you want to hit next. TheSurf Life comes set up with our new Banger Surf Skate trucks combo featuring a new Banger 130 RKP front truck for maximum turn and response paired with a Polar Bear 130 rear for a stable, predictable ride. The setup is finished off with a set of new Surfskate specific 65mm Hawgs wheels with square lips and a glossy finish for insane amounts of grip. The Surf Life also comes with soft-top griptape for maximum comfort.

Flex Rating

So, what’s flex and why is it important to a skateboard? In skate-nerd terms, flex is the amount of displacement a deck sees when a specific amount of force is applied to it. Check out our formula to the left! There are a few factors that affect flex, like deck thickness, wheelbase, and the amount of force on a deck. We built a machine and put our entire lineup to the test by applying the exact same amount of force to all our boards and measured the displacement we saw in each. This gives a totally scientific and accurate flex range across our entire line! It’s important to understand flex when choosing a board. Here are some basics: Downhill/freeride skateboards will have less flex because you need a stiff platform to stand on when you’re bombing or gripping a corner at speed. Carving skateboards will have more flex, giving you the ability to sink into your turns and pump or carve with ease. Most cruisers, dance and ATV boards will have less flex for control when doing tricks but just enough to be forgiving when pushing around town. We’ve engineered our boards with the best flex for each style of riding but remember, flex is subjective so get out a see what you like the most!

Fun and Unique Cruiser

I've been loving this board so far! I wanted to try something with more of a surf skate style with lots of carveability for a little while now and this definitely accomplishes that without going too far from typical skate style. It feels pretty different than a normal board with the front truck design, but not in a bad way.

It is definitely on the less stable side (I'm used to extremely low/long/wide boards) so pushing is a little wobbly for me but it feels very stable in even the tightest of turns (and they are tight!).

I'm still getting comfortable and learning the more surfy style, as well as the limitations of the board, but it is a great addition to my current board.

Nice board 4 smooth ride

The dark wave feature an old school style shape with very sharp and classy design.

I use it to ride mainly pumptracks. Great turn radius and perfect wheelbase length for that.

Though I would have expected larger trucks... That is my only concern.

If Landyachtz would consider to sell those great front bear trucks, I will surely buy them separately to upgrade.
