Powell Peralta - Andy Anderson Heron 2 Egg Flight 301 8.7 Skateboard Deck
The Andy Anderson Heron 2 Egg Flight 301 8.7 Skateboard Deck is designed with a stubbed nose and tail for predictable pop and better consistency, perfect for Pogos and Caspers. The wide nose and tail provide more comfortable footing and flicking, while the symmetrical “Twin Tip” design ensures the board wears twice as slow, so it never feels backwards. Egged rails help avoid chips by allowing the board to roll instead of smash upon impact. At 8.7" wide at its middle, it helps with kicking and catching lateral rotations, while the 14.5" wheelbase offers a stable stance. The deck features a continual curve to prevent chipping on flat surfaces, with a shorter distance between the trucks and the kick for enhanced pop. At 32.3" in length with an 8.5" width at the trucks, it’s sensitive to Primo flips and has a K20 concave, delivering exceptional control and performance. As Stacy Peralta puts it, Andy Anderson embodies what a true skateboarder should be—pushing the boundaries and skating without conforming to any particular mold, making him a true outsider in the world of skateboarding.
