Limited Edition Collector Item – Chris Yandall Skate legend Deck! In honor of his induction into the SHOF 2021 (Skateboard Hall of Fame).
Honoring the memory of our dear friend and team rider Chris Yandall (1954 – 2014) Sk8Kings has issued this limited edition collector graphic deck to commemorate his induction into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame 2021. Originally released with Sk8Kings in 2008, this signature model was designed by 70’s World Champion and modern day Father of Skog (switch pushing) and distance skateboarding – Chris Yandall. Perfectly sized at 35″ x 9.75″ and made from Canadian hard rock maple – this deck features wheel wells all around and a super comfortable flat wide platform ideal for skogging and cruising the boardwalks, bike paths, parking garages and all sorts of terrain.
The flat design promotes stability when alternating pushing foot and occasionally pumping switch stance. This also allows the long distance rider to build more symmetry in both left and right side leg and back muscles for an all around balanced workout. With the flat design – the Yandall is a great choice for long distancing pushing – with plenty of forgiving real estate for your foot to land back on. Not only will this board take you everywhere – but you can take it everywhere too – sized at 35″ – it will fit in most standard size skate bags.
