For our Spring 2025 Artist Series boards, we chose to collaborate with Adam Nienow, whose hand-crafted illustrations perfectly capturethe essence of surfskating. His focus on simplicity and attention to detail aligns seamlessly with Carver’s visual style, creating a powerfulconnection between art and motion. Adam, a surfer and skater himself, brings his personal experience to the designs, infusing them withauthentic energy and passion. The bold colors and embellished details celebrate the vibrant spirit of our community, making each boarda piece of art in motion.
