YOW

YOW SURFSKATE OFFICIAL STORE: NEW COLLECTION 2023

YOW Surfskates is one of the most well-known surfskate brands internationally. YOW (Your Own Wave) was created mid 2000s in Irun, Spain. Their creators are 3 brothers; Igor, Ander and Iban Iraola. Tired of Europe having being second class in the skate world compared to United States, they started manufacturing their first skateboards in a workshop at home.

Yow has become one of the most prestigious surfskate brands worldwide. From their factory in Irun apart from seeing YOW coming out you´ll see other well-known brands. Surely some of these brands will ring a bell; Jart Skateboards, Iron Trucks, Long Island Longboards or Cruzade Skateboards.

How to choose your YOW surfskate?

The new YOW Skates comes with two versions: YOW System S4 (Grom Models) and S5 (YOW Meraki). At first glance they may look the same. But the sensations and behavior of these two versions are very different. YOW S4 model is recommended for riders with a weight inferior to 50 kgs. Yow S5 are made for riders with more than 50 kgs and look for more stability.

  • YOW S4 : Yow S4 trucks are made of a 4mm spring. The YOW System Pack S4 is ideal to replicate the surfing sensations and for doing radical turns. Recommended for kids and people between 30 and 50 kgs. Or surfers with a mid / high surfing level that wants to practice more radical turns. YOW GROM COLLECTION
  • YOW S5Meraki: The Yow S5 trucks are harder and have a 5mm spring. Perfect for smoother and wider turns. The Yow S5 give the rider more control at high velocity.

NEW YOW MERAKI S5

 The Meraki is lighter, stronger and more aesthetically pleasing. Lightweight without sacrificing the surfing flow.

Both surfskate systems YOW S5 and YOW S4 give you the option for short wheelbase or long wheelbase. A shorter wheelbase is made for younger riders or for a more reactive pumping with closed turns. The wider wheelbase will let you do more open turns at higher velocity and more stability.

Who do we recommend to buy a YOW?

If you are looking for a surf skateboard to move around your city and improve your technique, YOW is the best option. If you are also one of those who value the made in Europe vs. made in China or Asia, look no further.

Advantages of the Yow Surfskates vs the rest of the surfskates in the market

  1. YOW System: One of the main advantages of the Yow Surf, is their axis system. The YOW system lets them change the distance of axes. The distance will give different sensations. A shorter distance will let you do more radical turns. On the other hand a larger axis distance will let you do softer and larger turns. Yow surfskate will let you have 2 skates in 1 and choose the sensation that is most comfortable to you.
  2. Versatile thanks to it’s YOW blocking system: Another innovation and advantage with the Yow system is its blocking system. With a simple locking screw you can block the Yow system. This will convert it to a traditional skate. Again, 2 skates is one. Surfskate and cruiser at the same time.
  3. Quality: If we are talking about Yow, then we are talking about a guarantee of quality. From the Irun factory comes some of the most important skate brands. All their components are high quality. Their boards are made using U.S.A. Hard Rock Maple. Their bushings are Blood Orange Ultra HR Formula and their griptapes are Jessup which are colorful and have eye catching graphics.
  4. YOW system pack: Another one of the great advantages of Yow vs Carver or vs Smoothstar is that their axis system can be mounted on any other deck; skate, cruise or longboard. Something that will let you turn any skateboard into a surfskate.
  5. Collaboration with Pukas & Chris Christenson & Pyzel Surfboards: Yow Pukas, Yow Christenson and YOW Pyzel is the alliance of big brands. Yow Surfskates and Pukas, Pyzel and Chris Christenson Surfboards. Some of their models like the Lane Splitter emulate surfboards from the Christenson Boards brand. YOW CHRISTENSON COLLECTION
  6. Collaboration with the best surfers in the world: Another one collaboration to highlight from the Basque brand is with the pro surfer Mick Fanning, Gabriel Medina and Aritz Aranburu. Just like Smoothstar with Filipe Toledo or Carver with Yago Dora, YOW has created a model in collaboration with these top surfers. YOW MICK FANNING COLLECTION
