Powell Caballero Ban This Dragon Reissue 9.2" Deck

*Given the nature of the foil and the manufacturing process, slight variations and minor imperfections are perfectly normal. *The dip-dyed top veneer on this deck is one of a kind. Because of natural variations in the wood grain and dyed veneers, the color and pattern may differ slightly from the image shown. *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. SHORT 4 - 2.125" TRUCK HOLE PATTERN In 1988 Powell-Peralta ran an "Artist Wanted" advertisement in TWS and Thrasher. The contest "winner" would get a job in the Powell-Peralta art department in Santa Barbara. The artist selected was Sean Cliver, mainly because his illustration style closely resembled VCJ's. Cliver's first deck design, the Barbee Ragdoll, was a departure from the traditional VCJ look, but when it came time to update the Caballero dragon, Sean emulated the master. At some point later, someone dubbed the graphic Cab "Ban This" Dragon since it was prominently featured in that video (think slow-motion sequence).
