The flight deck is described as thinner, stronger, and more resistant to breaking than a standard 7-ply, with team testing suggesting it lasts several times longer. That means fewer second-guessing moments when you want a deck that holds up through repeated use. \u003cstrong\u003eIf you want a deck with a known Mike Vallely graphic, a precise 8.63″ width, and a shape built for serious street skating, this is a straightforward choice.\u003c\/strong\u003e Handle the silver foil graphic carefully if you are keeping it unsketched, since the ink and foil adhesion are delicate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Product: Powell Peralta Mike Vallely Elephant Flight Skateboard Deck\u003cbr\u003e- Color\/finish: Silver Foil\u003cbr\u003e- Originally released: 1988\u003cbr\u003e- Artwork by: Vernon Courtlandt Johnson\u003cbr\u003e- Width: 8.63\"\u003cbr\u003e- Length: 32.2\"\u003cbr\u003e- Wheelbase: 14.38\"\u003cbr\u003e- Concave: K26\u003cbr\u003e- Shape: 244W\u003cbr\u003e- Nose: 6.94\"\u003cbr\u003e- Tail: 6.69\"\u003cbr\u003e- Construction: 7-Ply Maple\u003cbr\u003e- Flight deck notes: thinner, stronger than twice as strong in tail break tests, longer lasting, higher ollies from greater rebound and snap\u003cbr\u003e- Foil note: slight variations and minor imperfections are normal due to the foil and manufacturing process\u003cbr\u003e- Handling note: if not skating, handle carefully when removing from packaging; ink\/foil adhesion is delicate and can scratch easily\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Powell Peralta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48785505353972,"sku":"DCPAFLTMVE0286326","price":119.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0127\/3236\/6912\/files\/powell-peralta-mike-vallely-elephant-flight-8-63-skateboard-deck-silver-foil-1.jpg?v=1782673971","url":"https:\/\/longboardsusa.com\/products\/powell-peralta-mike-vallely-elephant-flight-8-63-skateboard-deck-silver-foil","provider":"Longboards USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
