Powell Peralta Dan Corrigan Chess Skulls 8.42" Flight - Skateboard Deck

Introducing the first Powell Peralta Dan Corrigan pro model. Although this deck may look like a classic popsicle skateboard, this Corrigan Chess Skulls is actually packed with a host of little features that make it so special (Dan explains it all in his video). The Chess Skulls measures 8.42" x 31.88" and has a wheelbase of just 13.88". This short distance between trucks makes the deck turnir better, and makes it easier to change positions during grinds. The nose and tail are both 6.9", but the tail has a wider contour for more foot/deck contact. The Powell Perlata exclusive's Flight construction (fibre and maple) ensures extreme solidity and a more powerful, persistent pop, while reducing weight. Shape #315. Concave K26. Graphics by VJC. Made in USA.

Mounting tips

Dan recommends trucks with 8.5" long axles (Independent 149mm, Slappy 8.5", Ace AF1 55,...). The trucks are deliberately slightly wider than the deck They are deliberately slightly wider than the Franhenstein in order to make them more comfortable, but they don't interfere with kick flips.

For the wheels a 52mm to 55mm diameter will provide a well-balanced set-up.

About Powell Peralta

Powell Peralta is one of the pioneering brands that has made / and continues to make its mark on the history of the skateboard. Based in California since 1978, the brand is a union of skills between George Powell (an engineer who made his first skateboard in 1957) & Stacy Peralta (Pro Skateboarder). Powell has always stood out for its innovative spirit, and is one of the rare brands to have its own factories for the production of the decks and wheels. Powell graphics such as the ripper or the dragon are an integral part of the Powell skateboard part of the Powell culture.
