Good skaters are hard on boards. They don’t miss little tricks, they miss big ones, and they break decks. Sometimes they break themselves too. We developed LIGAMENT™ technology for our team after watching one of Jordan Hoffart’s especially nasty video slams at the bottom of a big rail gap.
LIGAMENT™ technology consists of inlaying three long strips of high strength polymeric strap into the middle of each deck. These reinforcing straps are strong and flexible, like the ligaments that connect your muscles to your bones. Even when you break the board, the ligament straps will hold your deck together allowing you to ride out of it, instead of doing the groin-tearing splits. LIGAMENT™ decks weigh the same as a 7-ply maple deck, but have more pop, stay stiff longer than ordinary boards, and prevent the deck from ever breaking into two pieces because of the the three ligaments in each one.
Powell LIGAMENT™ decks are manufactured by Skate One, in Santa Barbara, California. They combine our thirty-three years of skateboard manufacturing experience, the world's finest materials, and Skate One’s new LIGAMENT™ technologyto give you more pop, longer board life, and extra confidence when you go big.
The Powell team gave LIGAMENT™ boards two thumbs up after months of testing. So much that we will be making all our Powell Skateboards with LIGAMENTS by the summer of 2009 because they are superior to a standard 7-ply, and we know any skater who has ever broken a board will appreciate LIGAMENT™ technology when it saves his groin.
Look for LIGAMENT™ on the rail of a Powell deck for greater pop, more confidence and increased board life.
