Description

Powell Peralta – Mike Vallely Lightning Bolt Gold Foil Flight Shape 308 K26 – 8.75in x 32.33in

Originally released in 1997, the Mike Vallely Lightning Bolt symbolizes the second and most enduring act of Vallely’s long career: his desire, dedication, and determination to positively promote skateboarding.

Throughout the mid-to-late 90’s and into the 2000’s, as the popularity of skateboarding grew, Mike toured relentlessly. From parking lots to skate shops, from backyard ramps to skate parks, from city streets to shopping malls—Vallely’s passion and drive to welcome young people all over the world into skateboarding, and to share all that he had learned goes unmatched. His “never give up” message of individuality and self-expression is woven into the very fabric of the sport. Through it all, the Lightning Bolt has become as iconic and as meaningful to skateboarding and skateboarders as Vallely’s Elephant graphic from the 80’s.

Powell Peralta is proud to reissue this graphic in our innovative Flight Deck Construction.

*Due to the nature of foil during the production process, you may notice some faint lines or subtle inconsistencies. This is completely normal.

**If you don’t plan on skating this deck, please handle carefully when removing from the packaging. The ink/foil adhesion is delicate and can be easily scratched.
FLIGHT™ Decks are:

Thinner – as thin as your phone
Stronger – more than twice as strong in our tail break tests
Longer lasting – The epoxy infused, fiber reinforced structure of the Flight deck is extremely resistant to breaking, and this structure gives them “everlasting pop” that doesn’t fade as your deck slowly wears.
Ollies higher because of greater rebound and snap.
Team testing suggests that Flight decks will last several times longer than a 7-ply, making them a great value as well as a superior performing skateboard.

*Remember, skateboards are meant to be ridden, not run over by a car or truck.
