The Architecture of the B2 Full Square Shape & Steep Concave

Every geometric parameter of Riley Hawk’s pro model is calculated to maximize your pop leverage, increase foot containment, and optimize rail locks:

• The Power of the B2 Full Square Shape: Unlike traditional tapered decks, Baker’s specialized B2 Full profile features a wider, squared-off nose and tail. By holding the full 8.38" width further out toward the kicks, it provides a massive, stable landing pad, significantly more surface area for foot placement, and an ultra-secure, flat surface for locking deeply into crooked and nose grinds.

• Aggressive Technical Steep Concave: Engineered with deep, pronounced side-to-side concave curves and steeper nose and tail angles. This architecture cradles your feet perfectly, locking them securely into the sweet spots for maximum leverage when whipping heavy flip tricks or hauling ass toward high-impact street handrails.

• High-Velocity 14.5" Wheelbase Stability: The elongated 14.5" wheelbase provides immense stability at high speeds, preventing dangerous speed wobbles when carving deep concrete transitions, screaming down hills, or charging toward a spot.

• 100% Hard Rock Canadian Maple: Poured and pressed using top-tier, tight-grained Canadian maple veneers. This premium wood construction gives the deck its signature rigid structural strength, providing an explosive, snappy pop that refuses to go soggy after months of heavy street abuse.
