Powell Peralta OG Rat Bones Skateboard Deck - 10″ Red Foil
Powell Peralta OG Rat Bones Skateboard Deck - 10″ Red Foil
The Vato Rat was created by artist Craig Stecyk. Coming from the Santa Monica Dogtown "Z-Boy" surf-skate scene of the 1970's, Stecyk was surrounded by Hispanic gang culture and graffiti. At the time he was airbrushing a lot of Zephyr surfboards and blended that influence into his work. The Vato Rat was one of the many symbols he used to decorate surfboards and generally mark territory at local surf spots. In 1983 Stacy Peralta decided to bring the Vato Rat back as a Powell-Peralta graphic. They called it "Rat Bones" and it was used in advertising, on decks, stickers and T-shirts.

Is this deck size right for me?
Your fit comes first. Height, shoe size, stance and riding style help you choose a starting point. Bigger feet may prefer more room; height also affects how much length and stance space feels comfortable. There is no fixed sizing rule—personal preference gets the final say.
Compare with a board you know: measure straight across its widest point, edge to edge. The width is only one part of the fit; shape and length matter too.
