Powell Peralta O.G. Rodriguez Skull & Sword Skateboard Deck, Teal Stain, 10′ x 28.25′

Introducing the Powell Peralta O.G. Rodriguez Skull & Sword Skateboard Deck, a timeless piece of skateboarding history. This classic deck, with dimensions of 10′ in width and 28.25′ in length, showcases the iconic Skull & Sword graphic that first graced the skateboarding world in 1979. The vibrant teal stain finish adds a modern touch to this retro design, making it a must-have for both avid collectors and everyday skaters.

The Rodriguez ‘Skull & Sword’ deck represents the very first pro signature graphic ever produced by Powell-Peralta. Conceived by the legendary Ray Rodriguez and illustrated by the talented V.C. Johnson, with art direction from George Powell, this graphic has become synonymous with skate culture. Initially, it was released in two distinct shapes: the 10′ x 30′ ‘Widetail’ version and the 10′ x 28.5′ ‘Snub Nose.’ The original release featured vibrant Brite-Lite Dayglo colors, including yellow, orange, purple, and green, which made it stand out on the streets and the skate park.

Over the years, the Rodriguez deck has undergone several iterations, with variations in color and design. The addition of the Powell-Peralta logo in later versions only solidified its status as a classic. In 1983, Ray Rodriguez’s signature was replaced with the Powell-Peralta script logo, marking a new era for this iconic skateboard deck. The graphic itself has transcended the skateboard realm, being featured on T-shirts and stickers, further embedding it in the fabric of skateboarding culture.

This specific deck is designed for serious skaters who appreciate both style and performance. Its dimensions include a wheelbase of 16.625′, a nose length of 1.25′, and a tail length of 5.38′. The long 4 – 2.5′ old school truck hole pattern makes it compatible with a variety of trucks, allowing skaters to customize their setup for optimal performance. The shape 271 and FK1 concave ensure that skaters have the control and responsiveness they need to tackle any trick or maneuver.

Rodriguez Skull & Sword Skateboard Deck in teal stain is an ideal choice. It perfectly balances nostalgia with functionality, making it suitable for both display and use.
