Powell-Peralta Anderson Flight Shape 289 8.45" Skateboard Deck (multi)

The materials are of the highest quality and the finishes are excellent. It is ergonomic, easy to handle and easy to transport

I finally bit the bullet and bought it. And it’s great. The dimensions look weird, but once you ride it they make sense—wide at the bolts slightly tapering towards the back of the middle. It feels super stable, but also nimble. I like the blunt tail and nose (more aesthetically, because I’m not a freestyler—but it is nice to pogo comfortably, every now and again). The wheel base is regular, but somehow feels longer. The tail looks really long, and the description here says the nose and tail are different, but I watched an Andy Anderson video where he said they are actually the same length, and I measured them and they are both just under 7”. It also feels lighter than a regular deck, but that is possibly because it’s so thin and so it feels smaller. I don’t think it actually is that much lighter. The downside is that the graphic looks a bit cheap. It looks like a big plastic sticker that has been glued to the board. Very glossy. And it chips really easily. In fact, the deck, itself, seems to chip quite easily. I assume this won’t be a problem as these flight decks are supposed to be very durable. I would highly recommend this deck. And as a side note, I am using the Skatedeluxe grip tape and it is extremely good. I usually use Mob, but the Skatedeluxe grip is brilliant.

The graphic is awesome, shape is strange but skates very good. The board is really light, very strong and snappy
