Magma Seal 8.5

€69,60

Tap into the fiery energy of the Element Magma Seal 8.5" Skateboard Deck, a bold addition to Element’s Magma Series collection. Founded in 1992 by Johnny Schillereff, Element Skateboards blends technical expertise with a commitment to sustainability, delivering high-quality gear for skaters worldwide. This 8.5" x 32.6" deck features the iconic Magma Seal graphic—a vibrant twist on Element’s classic tree logo—set against a striking magma-inspired backdrop. Crafted from 7-ply premium North American maple, it offers a medium concave and a 14.5" wheelbase, ideal for street and park skating. With a 7.3" nose and 6.6" tail, this deck provides responsive pop and precise control, making it a reliable choice for skaters of all levels seeking a wider platform for stability and technical tricks.

Key Features

  • 7-Ply North American Maple: Premium construction ensures a durable, lightweight deck with consistent pop and strength.

  • 8.5" Width: Wider size ideal for street and park skating, offering stability for larger tricks and landings.

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

  • Magma Seal Graphic: Iconic Element tree logo with a fiery magma design, adding a bold, vibrant aesthetic.

  • Popsicle Shape: 14.5" wheelbase with 7.3" nose and 6.6" tail supports switch riding and versatile trick performance.

Compatible Truck Sizes

For an 8.5" deck like the Element Magma Seal, the truck axle width should closely match the deck width for optimal performance. Only Independent Trucks and Venture Trucks are included:

  • Independent Trucks:

    • Size 149 (8.5" axle width): Perfect match for 8.5" decks, offering a balanced setup for street and park skating.

    • Size 144 (8.25" axle width): Slightly narrower but compatible, providing a more agile feel.

  • Venture Trucks:

    • Size 5.8 (8.5" axle width): Ideal for 8.5" decks, delivering lightweight performance and responsive turning.

    • Size 5.6 (8.25" axle width): Slightly narrower but works well for a nimble setup.

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

Preferred Wheel Sizes

The 8.5" Element Magma Seal deck’s wider 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 8.5" 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.
