Construction
Powell-Peralta Construction - Powell designed and fabricated AirLam low pressure air bladder presses are used to laminate 7 plies of the finest grade American, hard rock maple, with high strength, water resistant glue.
Each deck is then sealed against moisture with a water base acrylic semi-gloss finish. Powell-Peralta decks are precisely controlled in thickness for optimum performance and protect against de-lamination for the useful life of the deck.
