About the Skull and Sword artwork:

The Rodriguez “Skull & Sword” deck was the first pro signature deck graphic produced by Powell-Peralta. The graphic was conceived by Ray and Illustrated by V.C. Johnson with art direction from George Powell in 1979.

Initially released in two distinctly different shapes; a 10″ x 30″ “Widetail” version and a 10″ x 28.5″ “Snub Nose, it came in “Brite-Lite” Dayglo yellow, orange, purple, and green. In years to follow, it was made in various colors and a Powell-Peralta logo was added. In 1983 Ray’s signature was removed and replaced with a Powell-Peralta script logo.

Originally Released: 1979

About Powell-Peralta Decks:

Powell Peralta decks are made in the USA at our skateboard manufacturing facility in Santa Barbara, CA. Materials include U.S. hard rock maple, high-strength fiberglass, and AirLam fused with epoxy resin and are warranted against delamination for their useful life. Our graphics are created in-house using non-solvent-based inks and paints to keep our atmosphere cleaner.

About Powell-Peralta Flight Decks:

Built-in a new production area in our Santa Barbara, California facility, Powell-Peralta Flight decks are stronger and thinner than an average 7-ply. You’ll get the feel of it in an hour or two and begin to realize you can do things riding a Flight deck that cannot be done on a 7-ply. Flight decks allow you to extend your limits because they let you ollie higher, flip faster, and do tricks more easily while lasting considerably longer than most maple 7-ply decks.

FlightDecks are:

thinner – as thin as your phone

stronger – more than twice as strong in our tail break tests

longer lasting – The epoxy-infused, fiber-reinforced structure of the Flight deck is extremely resistant to breaking, and this structure gives them “everlasting pop” that doesn’t fade
