Foundation

Star & Moon white, 8.25

Regular price €64,99

Shine bright with the Foundation Star & Moon White 8.25" Skateboard Deck, a timeless classic from a brand that’s been shaping skate culture since 1989. Founded by Tod Swank under Tum Yeto, Foundation Skateboards is known for its durable 7-ply Canadian maple decks and vibrant, hand-drawn graphics, with a team including Dakota Servold and Corey Duffel. This 8.25" x 31.875" deck features the iconic Star & Moon graphic on a crisp white background, a staple design that embodies the brand’s creative legacy. Crafted with a single cold-pressed design and medium concave, it offers a 14.25" wheelbase for enhanced stability and snappy pop, perfect for street and park skating. Ideal for skaters seeking a wider platform with a bold aesthetic, this deck delivers performance and durability for any session.

Key Features

  • 7-Ply Canadian Maple: Single cold-pressed construction ensures a durable, lightweight deck with consistent pop and strength.

  • 8.25" Width: Ideal for street and park skating, providing extra stability for larger tricks and landings while retaining maneuverability.

  • Medium Concave: Offers a comfortable, responsive board feel for precise control during technical maneuvers and grinds.

  • Star & Moon Graphic: Iconic white-background design delivers a clean, bold aesthetic with Foundation’s signature style.

  • Popsicle Shape: 14.25" wheelbase with standard nose and tail supports switch riding and versatile trick performance.

Compatible Truck Sizes

For an 8.25" deck like the Foundation Star & Moon White, the truck axle width should closely match the deck width for optimal performance. Only Independent Trucks and Venture Trucks are included:

  • Independent Trucks:

    • Size 144 (8.25" axle width): Perfect match for 8.25" decks, offering a balanced setup for street and park skating.

    • Size 149 (8.5" axle width): Slightly wider but compatible, providing extra stability for larger setups.

  • Venture Trucks:

    • Size 5.6 (8.25" axle width): Ideal for 8.25" decks, delivering lightweight performance and responsive turning.

    • Size 5.8 (8.5" axle width): Slightly wider but works well for a more stable setup.

  • General Guideline: Trucks with an 8.25" axle width (Independent 144 or Venture 5.6) are the best match for this deck, while 8.5" trucks (Independent 149 or Venture 5.8) offer a slightly wider stance for added stability.

Preferred Wheel Sizes

The 8.25" Foundation Star & Moon deck’s versatile size supports a range of wheel sizes based on skating style:

  • 50-52mm: Ideal for technical street skating. Smaller wheels lower the center of gravity, enhancing control for flip tricks and grinds on ledges or rails. Recommended with low trucks to avoid wheelbite.

  • 53-54mm: A balanced choice for street and park skating. These wheels provide a mix of speed and maneuverability, perfect for most skaters using this deck.

  • 55-56mm: Suited for skateparks or mixed terrain. Larger wheels offer faster rolls and smoother rides over cracks or ramps, best with mid or high trucks and risers if needed.

  • General Guideline: For an 8.25" deck, 50-54mm wheels are most popular for street-focused setups, while 54-56mm wheels are better for park or transition skating. Opt for harder wheels (83A or higher) for street and softer wheels (80A-83A) for skatepark surfaces.
