To say the new Boneheadz shaped decks are crucial to our Team arsenal is a massive understatement. These 3 shapes are smooth and cover all the bases when it comes to Dimensions. Starting with the smallest, The 8.5" brings just the right amount of fullness to the tail and taper to the nose compared to a standard popsicle deck with an agile 14.25" wheelbase to boot. Next up is the Medium and rare 8.77": Just enough meat where you want it, yet maneuverable when you need it with its 14.375" wheelbase. And Finally, the coveted 9.31" Tombstone shape: all the curves and Tail you fiend for in a wider shape, with a short 14.25" wheelbase. The graphics reveal just the right amount of veneer in the 'ol Boneheadz too, making this series nothing short of 3 masterpieces on urethane and alloy.
7 ply North American Maple pressed individually using epoxy - making a strong, responsive deck with long lasting pop and consistent concave and kick.

When attaching your trucks to your board you’re gonna want to make sure your bolts are long enough. If you ride bigger wheels, you'll want to use risers, and if you use risers, you’ll want to run a longer bolt, but you don’t want to go too long or your setup will look all goofy! Use the chart below and everything will fall into place.
