About the Vato Rat Bones Artwork:
The Vato Rat was created by artist Craig Stecyk. Coming from the Santa Monica Dogtown "Z-Boy" surf-skate scene of the 1970's, Stecyk was surrounded by Hispanic gang culture and graffiti. At the time he was airbrushing a lot of Zephyr surfboards and blended that influence into his work. The Vato Rat was one of the many symbols he used to decorate surfboards and generally mark territory at local surf spots. In 1983 Stacy Peralta decided to bring the Vato Rat back as a Powell-Peralta graphic. They called it "Rat Bones" and it was used in advertising, on decks, stickers and T-shirts.

- So incredibly cool, got my first board back!!!! Review by Kevin
this was my first board I ever bought when I was 12, not pink of course, blue, then a silver one, something special about picking your first board by yourself, and I chose it because my older brother used to draw the Rat Bones everywhere... I wanted to be like him... many years later I'm reunited in a very cool colorway. Oh, and I thought it was a pink dipped board, but no, it's a pink stain and shows the wood grain.... EVEN BETTER (Posted on 12/16/2020)Rating - Power of the Hot Pink!! Review by szasz apperley
So stoked on this deck! The Hot Pink dip...and the fluorescent/electric blue dragon logo on top is the perfect color combo...Thanks PP, love it! (Posted on 12/6/2020)Rating - Ordered! Review by Andrew
Just got this one ordered and am stoked! I was kicking myself for missing out on the navy blue one a year+ ago. This pink colorway is even better. (Posted on 12/3/2020)Rating
