With the Santa Cruz VX Asta Cosmic Cat deck, endure a strong pop that will take you out of this world!
Not only does it look beautiful, the Santa Cruz VX Asta Cosmic Cat deck construction will outlast those standard 7-ply boards any day. The VX construction consists of 5-plys of hard rock North American Maple that gets reinforced by two layers of patented Santa Cruz Quad X Technology material.
The Quad X layers combine fiberglass and carbon fiber fabric, which are connected crosswise with each other. These special plies make up the top and second to last layer of VX decks.
Overall, this signature construction makes the VX decks both thinner and stronger than other boards on the market. The Quad X Technology material also makes these boards keep their pop longer than conventional 7 ply and premium wood!
This Santa Cruz VX Asta Cosmic Cat 8″ skateboard deck has a solid all around shape, designed for a technical street skater. Set this new deck up and get ready for crisp pop and well designed ergonomic concave.

Today we are stoked to be back with Ricta Wheels and MoB Grip Brand Manager (and all around Legend) Cairo Foster to talk about and put to the test Maurio McCoy’s 8.25 x 31.83 ‘Transcend’ Twin Tip VX Deck while Andrew tests the 8.0 x 31.6 Electric Lava VX Deck!
Santa Cruz Skateboards, nestled in the skateboarder's paradise of Santa Cruz, California, burst onto the scene in 1973. Picture this: Richard Novak, Doug Haut, and Jay Shuirman, probably sporting some epic '70s hairdos, get together and say, "Hey, let's start NHS Inc. and shake up the skate world."
With over four decades of skateboarding smarts (that's like, 280 in dog years of skate knowledge), Santa Cruz isn't just a brand; it's a skateboarding legend. Thanks to the mind-blowing graphics from the artist extraordinaire Jim Phillips, their decks are more iconic than a rock star's guitar.
And let's talk about NHS's brand family – it's like the Avengers of skateboarding gear. They distribute the who's who of skate brands: Santa Cruz Skateboards (obviously), Creature Skates for the monster in you, Independent Truck Co. (the backbone of your board), Bronson Speed Co. (because who doesn't like speed?)!
