FLIGHT® DECK CONSTRUCTION

We have always looked to improve our skateboard deck construction. In 2015, we set out on an exploration to improve the strength and performance of skateboard decks and to see what was possible. FLIGHT decks apply what we learned into making a superior deck with increased performance at an affordable price.

Built in a new production area in our Ventura, California facility, FLIGHT decks are stronger than a 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, do tricks more easily, and they don't break in two like a 7-ply.

FLIGHT decks 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 Flight decks "everlasting pop" that doesn't fade as your Flight deck slowly wears.
• Ollies higher because of greater rebound and snap.

Team testing suggests that Flight decks will last several times as long as a 7-ply, making them a great value as well as a superior performing skateboard.

In fact, because Flight decks last so long, many of our team riders re-grip their decks two or three times before changing decks. One of our pros rode his Flight deck for eight months, and only retired it so he could ride a fresh graphic.

The way Flight decks usually wear out is through edge impacts and razor tail, not from losing their pop or breaking like a 7-ply. We have also occasionally seen the bottom maple ply of a Flight deck crack from extreme landings or being run over by a vehicle, but even this does not render a Flight deck unrideable. The strength and pop of a Flight deck is in the super strong reinforcing plies, not the maple bottom ply, which is there for grinding, not for strength.

Powell Peralta

Founded by George Powell and Stacy Peralta in 1978, the company rose to prominence in the 1980s as skateboarding began maturing as a sport. The company featured the Bones Brigade, a team featuring the era's top competitors. Peralta left the company in 1991 and Powell continued to produce skateboard equipment as Powell, Bones Bearings and RollerBones. The two company founders reunited to produce the company's now classic inventory under the name Powell Classic.
