Premium BBS Woodshop Engineering & Street Geometry
Every dimensional coordinate of the "Viking Willow" deck is calculated to maximize your technical control, leverage your pop, and handle intense high-speed riding:
-
Manufactured at BBS (Generator): Widely recognized by core skateboarders as the absolute gold standard of modern skateboard manufacturing. BBS presses using premium North American maple veneers bonded with high-grade, low-moisture resins. This produces an incredibly stiff, snappy deck that resists chipping and retains its "new board pop" far longer than standard imports.
-
The 8.50" All-Terrain Blueprint: Measuring a robust 8.50" wide, this dimension is the premier sweet spot for skaters who want maximum foot room and a solid, dependable landing platform. It offers plenty of surface area underfoot to control fast street lines, concrete transition bowls, and steep hill bombs while maintaining a highly reliable flick.
-
Stretched 32.125" Frame & Responsive 14.25" Wheelbase: Engineered with an extended length paired with a quick-snapping 14.25" wheelbase, this deck provides exceptional stability and levered pop control. The balanced geometry gives you a smooth turning radius and a secure platform that excels when locking into long frontside grinds, fast crusty wallrides, or heavy street gaps.
-
Assorted Top & Bottom Veneer Plies: True to premium manufacturing heritage, each deck features unique, random wood stain variations on the top ply and center plies, making every individual board slightly distinct from the next.
