Carver Channel Islands Mid Sage C7 32.5" — Smooth Speed, True Twin Feel & Mid-Length Flow
The Carver Channel Islands Mid Sage 32.5" brings a refined update to the CI Mid Twin, offering a bit more length and width for a proper surf stance and improved rail leverage. This true mid-length surfskate draws longer, smoother lines with increased speed, drive, and flow, yet stays loyal to the looseness and freedom you'd expect from a twin-fin inspired design.
Whether you're practicing drawn-out point-break lines, warming up before a surf session, or carving your local streets, the Mid Sage delivers a balanced blend of stability, cruise, and surf-style maneuverability.
