Some news about Yellowood

The shape

We have been without decks for a while now because we were working hard in the shape of our decks, now they are shaped like the best skateboard brands with CNC, all decks are symmetrical and they are all the same width and length (29x101mm) with rounded edges, all the programming was done indoors and it was complex to get all parameters working right, but now we have the ability to make the shape as we want, change it around and try new designs, this is the beginning of a long way of experiments, and we are very excited with that. The decks still remain a handmade product because all the hand work evolved in doing the decks, the sanding still is totally made by hand.

2009 Graphic collection

Well for me the best part of making decks is when we arrive the graphic stage, that’s when we seat back, relax and have some laughs, this time we wanted to make something different from previous designs, so we started sketching some concept ideas, every single graphic has a history behind it, there is a total of 13 new graphics that evolved a lot of work, but we had a really good time in making them. The old graphics will stay up on the website but without stock, they will stay as Yellowood history, maybe some day we will make limited re-editions.

Website

We will have some changes in the website, and we will have a different ecommerce system, every user will have it’s own shopping cart section so it is impossible for 2 people to buy the same item, you will have 2 hours to finalize the buying process, if not the deck will go automatically back to stock.



Stock

We have around 80 decks this time, Graphic series, blanks, P-6, and wenge, all decks will come with a pre-cut slim tape sheet and new stickers.


We are working on a revolutionary new metal mold and all the processes have been optimized so we will be able of produce decks with better quality in a more frequent bases.
We Have the decks being lacquered as we speak so we will update photos when they are ready.
