LONG 4 - 2.5" OLD SCHOOL TRUCK HOLE PATTERN
In 1987 street skating was rapidly gaining popularity. Steve Caballero not only excelled at vert skating but was a top contender on the "Street-Style" circuit. Powell-Peralta decided to introduce an additional Cab deck model specifically designed for street. Artist V.C. Johnson created a new dragon graphic with a bats & bones background. Cab's name was also created in the bat shape since Cab was into Batman at the time. The Powell-Peralta logo was made using the Animal Chin font, also a sign of the times.

*Given the nature of the foil and the manufacturing process, slight variations and minor imperfections are perfectly normal.
*The dip-dyed top veneer on this deck is one of a kind. Because of natural variations in the wood grain and dyed veneers, the color and pattern may differ slightly from the image shown.
*If you don’t plan on skating this deck, please handle carefully when removing from the packaging. The ink/foil adhesion is delicate and can be easily scratched.
