Product Description
The Dark 34.5” is our version of the incredible board design that took Pukas’s shaper Axel Lorentz to win the runner-up recognition at 2019’s Stab in the Dark event.
We chose a long wheelbase (20”) for those surfers who want to bring their surfing stance into the streets, helping you execute big radical turns with ease.
Built with a medium concave that gives enough grip to keep your feet in place. Mounted with the Meraki (S5) system and 66x51mm 80A (medium) Ura wheels for extra precision.
Meraki S5 Trucks:
- The Yow Meraki Surfskate system is the culmination of the last 5 years of research and development. A more simplified and reinforced design alongside Yow’s patented spring system, making it one of the most unique surf skate setups in the world.
- Yow has removed the expendable parts of their old system while keeping their patented spring system intact and reinforced the essential parts while making it light and more resistant. In addition, improving the aesthetics as well.
- Overall, Yow’s new system is now unified with their very own skate trucks making it more stable without sacrificing the surfing flow Yow is well known for. Take your surf skating to the next level!

Yow Pukas Dark 34.5" Surfskate Cruiser Longboard - Key Questions Answered
Is this board a good choice if I want surf-style carving more than commuting?
Yes, it’s built for tight, surfy turns and pumping, not straight-line commuting. The YOW system makes it feel more like practice for rail-to-rail flow than a long-distance cruiser.
How stable does a 34.5" surfskate feel for a newer rider?
It has a usable stable zone, but the steering is still quick and reactive. Newer riders usually do best if they start smooth and keep speed in check.
What should I expect from the ride feel compared with a regular cruiser?
Expect deeper lean, faster direction changes, and less need for repeated pushing. Compared with a standard cruiser, it feels more alive underfoot and more focused on carving.
Would this work well for pumptracks and dryland surf training?
Yes, that’s one of its strongest uses. The responsive front-end setup helps you practice pumping efficiency and body positioning that carry over to surfing.
What kind of buyer benefits most from this model versus a more mellow board?
Riders who want a carve-first experience will get the most out of it. If you prefer easy cruising at relaxed speed, a less reactive setup will feel calmer.

Skater since 1974, pool pipe and skatepark, I've ridden it all but these Carver C7 trucks were a revelation. Best for slow speed styling and generally hanging some art on mellow terrain.
Definitely a kick and worth trying.

I am loving this board so far! I reached out to LBUSA to get some help finding the right board for me. They were more than helpful and the process of getting help, ordering the board, and then delivery was flawless. I am excited with my purchase and am thrilled with the customer service along the way. Top notch!

Well built and super fun to skate on. Wheels work well on imperfect pavement and sidewalk cracks. Bearings are legit.

Kiddo got this board for Christmas, for us to ride on Route 66. Board is good quality. No name trucks, but they function well for her. She likes the Punked Speed Series wheels. We did put reds super bearings in it. The factory bearings do not roll near as well. For the price, for a complete, it is well worth it. This is our second Punked Longboard, and both have served their purpose. I would buy from this company, and Vendor again, without question.

Trippy assym setup with Rogue ZM1's and assorted wheels really rips for downhill! I also hope to run cones with it soon.
