Powell Peralta Bones Brigade Serie 17

This is the unmissable event for all skateboard history buffs and vintage deck collectors: the Powell Peralta Bones Brigade 17th Series has finally arrived! This new reissue series pays tribute to the most legendary team of the 80s with original shapes and exclusive colorways produced in very limited quantities.

The legends of the Bones Brigade in the spotlight

For this 17th edition, Powell Peralta brings back the mythical pro-models manufactured in the USA (at the Santa Barbara workshops) using the famous high-quality 7-ply American maple. Discover the iconic graphics designed by Vernon Courtlandt Johnson (VCJ) :

• Tony Hawk (Falcon) : The birdman's emblematic deck on its original 80s shape.
• Steve Caballero (Dragon & Bats) : The legendary board by the creator of the Half-Cab.
• Rodney Mullen (Chess) : The deck of the godfather of modern street and freestyle.
• Mike McGill (Skull & Snake) : The legendary graphic that gave birth to the McTwist.
• Lance Mountain (Future Primitive) : The symbol of the pure and creative skate spirit.
• Tommy Guerrero (Dagger) : The smooth style of San Francisco street riding.

Old School Setup: How to build your Powell Peralta reissue?

Whether you plan to hang this jewel on the wall or skate it in bowls and ramps, an 80s reissue board requires components tailored to its generous dimensions (width often over 9.5" or 10") :

• Wide trucks : Opt for wide skateboard trucks (sizes 159, 169, or equivalent) to ensure a perfect alignment with the board's shape.
• Wheels & Bearings : To recreate the vintage feel or build a fast cruiser, equip your board with large soft wheels and high-performance skate bearings for optimal roll.
• Grip & Accessories : Think about deck rails (Rib Bones) to protect the graphic during boardslides and riser pads to prevent wheelbite.

A collector's series in ultra-limited quantities

As with every Bones Brigade drop, stocks fly extremely fast, and reprints in these colorways are rare. Don't miss the opportunity to complete your collection or build an exceptional retro setup.
