Some History:

Alan "Ollie" Gelfand invented the "no hands" vertical frontside air, or "ollie air." In the late Summer of 1980 the "AGM" (Alan Gelfand Model) was released. Following suit with the Bones Brigade military theme, Alan chose a tank for the subject of his graphic design which was illustrated by V.C. Johnson. The Ollie Tank was one of the first decks to receive the oval dragon top graphic.

Powell Peralta® decks are made in the USA at our own skateboard manufacturing factory in Santa Barbara, CA using U.S. hard rock maple, AirLam fused with Type 1 glue and are warranted against delamination for their useful life.
