Mike Vallely Elephant Skateboard Deck

While the 9.85-inch width makes it incredibly stable for cruising and transition riding, its traditional 7-ply construction and responsive AirLam technology mean it can handle street tricks if you prefer a wider platform under your feet.

AirLam is a specific bonding process that fuses the maple plies with high-strength Type 1 glue. It creates a stiffer, more responsive board that holds its pop longer than standard decks.

The graphic is printed to be durable, but it functions like any standard screen print. It will naturally scuff and wear down as you skate, though the UV-reactive ink will remain visible under blacklight conditions until the graphic is worn away.

The wider profile provides a larger surface area for your feet, which increases stability when landing tricks or riding transition. It is an ideal choice if you prefer a 'surfier' feel or have larger feet.

The warranty covers the deck for its useful life against manufacturing defects where the wood plies separate. It does not cover normal wear and tear, such as chips, cracks from impact, or razor tail.
