Powell Peralta Mini Skull & Sword III 8.0" Cruiser Complete Skateboard with Iconic Skull & Sword Graphic
Old-school skateboard style with the comfort of a modern cruiser! The Powell Peralta Mini Skull & Sword III 8.0" Cruiser Complete combines an iconic skateboard graphic with a compact deck and comfortable cruiser wheels. Thanks to the smooth trucks, soft wheels, and handy kicktail, this complete cruiser skateboard is ideal for relaxed rides, sharp turns, and cruising through the city.
The legendary Powell Peralta Skull & Sword graphic
The Skull & Sword is one of the most recognizable graphics in skateboarding history. The design originally appeared in 1979 on Ray Rodriguez's pro model and was illustrated by Vernon Courtlandt Johnson, better known as VC Johnson.
The Mini Skull & Sword III brings this classic skateboard style back in a compact size. The Mint/Navy color combination gives the board a fresh look, while the characteristic skull with sword remains instantly recognizable.
Compact cruiser skateboard measuring 8.0 x 30 inches
With a width of 8.0 inches (20.32 cm) and a length of 30 inches (76.2 cm), this mini cruiser offers a nice combination of stability and maneuverability.
The deck is shorter than a traditional skateboard, making it responsive to steering and easy to transport. At the same time, the 8.0-inch width offers enough room to stand comfortably with both feet on the board.
Soft 59mm cruiser wheels for a comfortable ride
The 59mm Powell Peralta cruiser wheels are designed to roll smoothly over various surfaces. Thanks to the soft urethane, they absorb minor bumps better than traditional hard skateboard wheels.
You notice this especially on asphalt, cobblestones, and less smooth bike paths. Furthermore, the larger wheel diameter helps maintain speed, meaning you don't have to push off as often while cruising.
Mini Logo trucks for smooth and direct steering
The skateboard features Mini Logo trucks with aluminum hangers and baseplates. The strong steel axles and kingpins ensure a sturdy construction, while the smooth bushings make it easy to turn.
The combination of the compact deck and agile trucks makes this cruiser particularly fun for short rides, winding routes, and relaxed skateboarding.
Sturdy 7-ply birch deck
The deck is constructed from 7 layers of birch wood compressed together with water-resistant glue using Skate One's AirLam construction method. This construction results in a sturdy skateboard with a direct riding feel.
The classic shape with an upturned nose and kicktail gives you extra possibilities while riding. With the kicktail, you can lift the front of the board, change direction quickly, and take on small obstacles.
Mini Logo Skate Rated bearings
The wheels are equipped with Mini Logo Skate Rated bearings . These bearings are specially developed for skateboard use and combine smooth rolling with a sturdy construction.
Moreover, thanks to the removable protective shields, the bearings are easier to clean and maintain.
Who is the Powell Peralta Mini Skull & Sword III suitable for?
This cruiser is an excellent choice for skateboarders who primarily want to ride comfortably. Its compact size makes it interesting for smaller riders, but also for experienced skaters looking for an agile cruiser board for short distances.
Due to the soft wheels, the emphasis is on cruising, steering, and relaxed riding . Are you primarily looking for a skateboard for technical flip tricks and grinds? Then a traditional street skateboard with smaller, harder wheels is generally a better choice.
Complete cruiser skateboard, ready to ride immediately
The Powell Peralta Mini Skull & Sword III 8.0" comes fully assembled. The deck, trucks, wheels, bearings, and griptape are already mounted.
So you don't have to pick out individual parts. Grab your cruiser, hop on, and discover how fun comfortable skateboarding can be!
