remember the classics

These are three of the most iconic decks to ever hang in a skateshop, and we just got these in stock. Here's a quick history lesson on these reissue decks:


Steve Caballero Chinese Dragon
Length: 30"
Width: 10"
Wheelbase: 15"
Nose: 3.875"
Tail: 7"
This was the original Steve Caballero Chinese Dragon deck, of which variations have been done by Steve through the years. 'Cab' was (and still is) one of the most influential skaters ever.


Powell/Peralta Ripper 
Length: 31.75"
Width: 10"
Wheelbase: 15.5"
Nose: 5.125"
Tail: 6.875"
When one thinks of Powell/Peralta the iconic purple/lime Ripper surely comes to mind first. Definitely a legendary deck.


Santa Cruz SC XX
Length: 31.7"
Width: 9.35"
Wheelbase: 15.25"
Nose: 5.95"
Tail: 6.2505"
Another great oldschool/pool deck, the Santa Cruz gremlin has been a staple in their artwork for years.
