About Medium Concave
This Element Skateboards deck has a medium concave which means the curvature from edge to edge is inbetween the shallow concave and deep concave. Found on most skateboards the medium concave make for a good all round skateboard. Since the depth of the concave seem to feel deeper as the deck increases in width, medium concaves are a good choice for decks over 7.75 inches in width.
About Element Skateboards 7 Ply Maple Construction
Element Skateboards 7 ply decks are made traditionally from 7 plies of sugar maple veneers, pressed together using polyvinyl glues in either aluminum, metal or concrete forms, generally taking around 300 psi to make multiple Element Skateboards in one closing of a press. Anywhere from 3-5 Element l Skateboards are done in one press, and after 30 minutes to an hour, the boards are removed from the press. At this point they have been stuck and laminated in the compound curve or the shape, which is the concave. Then after days of curing, the CNC routers will cut out the final shape, apply the edge trimming, paint it and send it of to the shops. With all the alternate materials available, from epoxy and fiberglass to carbon loaded thermoplastic nylon, nothing has had the combination of toughness, elasticity, feel and response of laminated sugar maple board.
About Wheel Base
The wheelbase of a skateboard deck is the distance from one pair of inner truck mounting holes to the other inner pair. The average wheelbase is 13"-15" and is determined by the type of skateboarding the deck is designed for, a shorter wheel base increase maneuverability while longer wheelbases have improved stability. A 14" wheelbase is standard for street skating decks, they have better maneuverability than pool, vert and longboard skateboards which require longer wheelbases to help improve their stability at higher speeds.
