DW Mellow Concave Architecture & Long Wheelbase Dynamics
Every geometric parameter of this 8.38" frame is engineered to maximize foot surface contact, provide predictable flick leverage, and optimize high-speed control:
-
The Precision DW Mellow Concave: Engineered specifically for skaters who prefer a flatter, more stable footbed or maximum surface area contact. The mellow concave allows for instant, comfortable foot adjustments, making it effortless to set up for technical flip tricks without feeling restricted by aggressive, steep pockets.
-
Extended 14.5" Wheelbase Stability: Featuring an elongated 14.5" wheelbase, this board provides immense stability at high velocities. It holds its line perfectly when rushing toward heavy handrails, carving deep concrete bowls, or blasting transition pockets, preventing dangerous speed wobbles.
-
100% Hard Rock Canadian Maple: Pressed using only the highest-grade, tight-grained Canadian maple veneers. This premium construction gives the deck its signature rigid structural strength, providing an explosive, snappy pop that resists flexing and refuses to go soggy after months of heavy street abuse.
-
True-Centric Single Pressing: Formed one by one using elite individual molds rather than massive stacks. This guarantees that every single board comes off the line with an identical, uncompromised shape and consistent concave depth across the entire production run.
