BAKER SKATEBOARDS - TRISTAN "T-FUNK" FUNKHOUSER "YOSEMITE" (8.75")
The Baker T-Funk Yosemite deck is a wide, powerful pro model designed for Tristan Funkhouser’s signature brand of high-speed, all-terrain skating. Featuring custom guest artwork by Mike Gigliotti, the "Yosemite" graphic brings a raw, hand-drawn naturalistic aesthetic to a board built for heavy-duty use.
While many of T-Funk’s boards feature aggressive shapes, this 8.75" edition utilizes the Baker Classic Shape and Mellow Concave. This combination provides a massive, stable platform that feels familiar and predictable, making it an elite choice for transition, bowl skating, and high-impact street spots.
Technical Specifications & Details
Key Features
-
Massive 8.75" Platform: This wider width offers maximum stability and surface area, providing a secure landing platform for large gaps and extra control in the deep end of a bowl.
-
Mellow Concave Profile: The flatter concave ensures a comfortable, stable feel underfoot, allowing for quick foot adjustments without the restrictive feel of a steeper board.
-
100% Hard Rock Canadian Maple: Built with 7-ply premium maple, ensuring the deck maintains its structural integrity and delivers the legendary "Baker Pop" through the most demanding sessions.
-
Classic Baker Geometry: Despite its width, the Classic Shape maintains the squared-off nose and tail that Baker is famous for, offering consistent leverage for pops and slides.
-
Agile 14.25" Wheelbase: Even at 8.75" wide, the shorter wheelbase keeps the board responsive and easy to whip around, preventing it from feeling too "boat-like" during technical maneuvers.
-
Mike Gigliotti Guest Art: The "Yosemite" graphic offers a unique, illustrative take on the outdoors, staying true to the gritty, artistic roots of the Baker and Lotties connection.
