About the Ripper Artwork:

Arguably the most iconic skateboard graphic of all time, "The Ripper" was illustrated in 1983 by legendary Powell-Peralta artist V.C. Johnson. Originally the graphic was used as a "Bones Sold Here" dealer window sticker. Next, the artwork found its way onto t-shirts and eventually decks. The Ripper graphic has stood the test of time and has been a staple of the Powell-Peralta line for over 30 years.

Originally Released: 1983
Artwork by: Vernon Courtlandt Johnson

About the deck:

NEW Powell Peralta popsicles are made in the Skate One China factory using Skate One AirLam® presses, and the same maple and glue to match strict engineering specifications. These new decks have assorted color stained top veneers along with a red center ply. They’re light, thin, have excellent torsional rigidity, and crisp pop.

Great for beginners to pro level skating at an awesome price.  Works well in the streets, skateparks, pools, freestyle, bombing hills or just pushing to the store.

Premium quality, 7 ply hard-rock maple, made right.
