8.75" Skateboard Decks

8.7 Inch Skateboard Decks

At the extreme end of contemporary skateboard widths, 8.7" decks serve specialized applications where platform stability takes absolute priority over board sensitivity and technical responsiveness. This width typically caters to transition specialists, skaters with larger frames, or those whose personal preferences favor substantial foot platform over the quick board feel that defines modern street skating. While 8.7" might seem excessive for conventional applications, some skaters understand their individual needs or skating style demands maximum platform confidence regardless of the technical limitations that come with substantially wider boards. Limited brands produce 8.7" options specifically for skaters who know their requirements lean toward specialized platform applications rather than versatile street skating that benefits from more responsive width choices.
