Carver x …Lost Puddle Jumper V4 Surfskate Complete | CX — 30.5"
Carver x …Lost Puddle Jumper V4 in CX Raw. 30.5" x 10.5" 7-ply maple, 16.875" wheelbase, Lost Progressive Rocker concave, 6.5" CX front truck / C2 rear truck, 70mm 78a Roundhouse Mag Smoke wheels, Carver ABEC 7 built-in bearings. Speed lives here.
The Puddle Jumper is one of …Lost's most iconic surfboard shapes — a design built around one specific performance characteristic that riders obsess over: the ability to generate speed effortlessly and maintain it through turns without bleeding momentum. The V4 is the latest evolution of that same brief, updated with a fresh blue rail fade graphic that keeps the unmistakable Lost identity while signalling clearly that this is a current product, not a retro play. At 30.5" x 10.5" with a 16.875" wheelbase, it's the largest of the core …Lost x Carver compact shapes — wide enough for serious leverage through turns, and long enough to carry speed between pumps with minimal effort.
The Lost Progressive Rocker concave runs through the full length of the board, mirroring surfboard construction principles to create a reactive, performance-based pump response that flat deck geometry can't replicate. The CX front truck is Carver's patented hybrid reverse kingpin with a precision pivot pin — snappy, single-axis turns with thruster-style immediacy and the kind of rail-to-rail response that the wide 10.5" deck amplifies into powerful, controlled carving. The 16.875" wheelbase is the longest in the standard …Lost x Carver lineup, and on a board designed for speed generation this matters — it keeps the ride smooth and composed through higher-speed pumping and extended carving lines where a shorter wheelbase would feel twitchy. The 70mm 78a Roundhouse Mag wheels provide the larger contact area and softer roll that keeps momentum alive between pushes on varied real-world surfaces.
…Lost Surfboards has been shaping progressive performance boards in San Clemente, California since 1995 — Matt "Mayhem" Biolos has shaped boards for some of the most progressive surfers on the planet and the Puddle Jumper has been one of their most popular small-wave designs for years. Every …Lost x Carver board contains an exclusive Progressive Rocker concave derived directly from surfboard construction principles. Carver invented the surfskate in 1996 and remains the technical benchmark for the category. Two brands that have been chasing performance since the beginning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between a surfskate and a cruiser skateboard?
A: A surfskate is built specifically to replicate the feel and movement of surfing on pavement — the patented front truck system allows for deep, front-foot-driven carves and the ability to generate speed through pumping, just like on a surfboard. A cruiser is designed for comfortable everyday riding — commuting, carving at a more relaxed pace, and navigating urban terrain. A surfskate demands more active engagement and rewards surf-specific technique; a cruiser is more forgiving and accessible from day one. If you surf and want something to train on or stay sharp between sessions, a surfskate is the right call. If you just want a smooth, fun board to get around on, a cruiser will serve you better. Not sure which direction to go? Call us on 03 9421 2293 and we'll help you figure it out.
Q: What size surfskate should I choose?
A: Shorter surfskates deliver tighter, sharper turns — better for technical carving, quick direction changes, and replicating the feel of a shorter board in the surf. Longer surfskates offer more flow and a drawn-out, rail-to-rail feel that suits bigger, more sweeping turns and riders who want a smoother, more relaxed carving experience. As a general guide, if you ride a shorter board in the surf or want maximum responsiveness, go shorter. If you ride a mid-length or longboard or want more glide and flow underfoot, go longer. Give us a call on 03 9421 2293 and we'll match you to the right setup based on how you surf and what you're trying to get out of it.
