About the Skull and Sword Artwork:
The Rodriguez "Skull & Sword" deck was the first pro signature deck graphic produced by Powell-Peralta. The graphic was conceived by Ray and Illustrated by V.C. Johnson with art direction from George Powell in 1979.
Initially released in two distinctly different shapes; a 10" x 30" "Widetail" version and a 10" x 28.5" "Snub Nose,” it came in "Brite-Lite" Dayglo yellow, orange, purple and green. In years to follow, it was made in various different colors and a Powell-Peralta logo was added. In 1983 Ray's signature was removed and replaced with a Powell-Peralta script logo. The graphic was also used for T-shirts and stickers.
Originally Released: 1979
Artwork by: Vernon Courtlandt Johnson

Powell-Peralta™ Re-Issue Construction
Powell-Peralta re-issue decks are close reproductions of their 1980’s counterparts, featuring the original Pro graphics and shape, top graphic logo and concave. They are manufactured in our Santa Barbara skateboard factory, which is still directed by a few of the same craftsmen that made them originally.

dLove this deck, but i am partial to it. I got this in the early 80's to mid 80's as my first deck ever. Stoked to have another!! now to find G&S trucks to set it up like it was. (Posted on 3/11/2020)Rating - Sick board Review by Joe Brandon

Super iconic deck! Shape developed to try to prevent cracks from jump ramps in the 80’s. It helped that the shape is sick, awesome lines. (Posted on 11/11/2019)Rating - Geegah Review by James

Its pink... patiently waiting for this to drop. Ok not so patiently, sell it to me now! (Posted on 3/8/2019)Rating - Smashing! Review by Henry
Being a huge fan of the 'Geegah' shape, and VCJ's Skull and Sword graphic, I was stoked to see this colorway getting reissued. Please can the pink to the correct Powell 80s pink? The recent Cab full dragon and Hawk Claw pinks were not quite right. It needs to be HOT pink! (Posted on 3/5/2019)Rating
