In 1986 jump ramps were all the rage. Easy to build, portable and fun to launch off of. Unfortunately, decks were snapping left and right. Powell-Peralta deck returns were so high the company sought ways to make decks stronger and more resistant to jump breaks. One solution was Bonite construction. Another was the "Gee-Gaw" shape which had bumps to reinforce the break zone area. Why "Gee-Gaw?" Ask Chris Iverson. This shape was also used for the Ripper graphic. They were produced between 1987 and 1988.
About the art:
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

- Skateboarder Review by Brian
My wife got me this for a 40th b day present, I love it! The color really pops and it’s super fun to ride around the skatepark. (Posted on 2/10/2022)Rating - Pink &. white color combo is killer Review by Vernon
I own over 70 Powell reissue boards and this one is without a doubt one of my favorites. The color combo is killer, the deck has the classic geegah shape. The board does feel lighter and thinner then recent decks I’ve purchased. (Posted on 1/26/2022)Rating - Killer colorway Review by Ricky
