PRODUCT DETAILS
Posiblemente el gráfico de skateboard más icónico de todos los tiempos, "The Ripper" fue ilustrado en 1983 por el legendario artista de Powell-Peralta VC Johnson. Originalmente, el gráfico se usó como una calcomanía para la ventana del distribuidor "Bones Sold Here". Luego, la obra de arte encontró su camino en las camisetas y, finalmente, en las cubiertas. El gráfico Ripper ha resistido la prueba del tiempo y ha sido un elemento básico de la línea Powell-Peralta durante más de 30 años.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this deck good for bowls and pools?
Yes. The 9.89" width, 15.38" wheelbase and long 6.7" tail make this an old school transition shape. Wide decks give you a stable platform for pumping and carving, and the extended tail gives you leverage for kickturns and tail blocks. It is not designed for technical street skating.
What size trucks do I need for a 9.89" deck?
Match your axle width to your deck width. For 9.89", look at Independent 169 (fits roughly 9.75" to 10.25"), Ace 77, or an equivalent wide truck from Thunder or Venture. Narrower trucks will leave the deck overhanging and make the board feel unstable in transition.
What wheels should I run on this?
For bowls and pools, most riders run 56mm to 60mm wheels in the 97a to 101a range. Harder wheels slide predictably on smooth concrete and coping. If you go 58mm or larger, add 1/8" or 1/4" risers to avoid wheelbite on a deck this wide.
How is an old school shape different from a modern street deck?
A modern street deck is typically 8.0" to 8.5" wide with a symmetrical nose and tail, built for flip tricks and switch riding. This deck is nearly 10" wide with an asymmetrical shape: a long tail for leverage and a short, flat nose. It is heavier and more stable, and it is not intended for technical flatground.
Is this a rideable deck or a collector's item?
It is a fully functional, ride-ready deck pressed from maple. The Ripper graphic makes it popular with collectors, but nothing about the construction is display-only. Plenty of riders buy this exact deck to skate it.
