Real Skateboards Peter Ramondetta Pro Model Skateboard Deck

This is a used skateboard deck, specifically a 'Pro Model' deck from Real Skateboards, featuring graphics associated with skater Peter Ramondetta. The deck is constructed from multiple plies of wood, likely maple, laminated together to form a strong yet flexible platform. Its shape is a typical 'popsicle stick' concave design, indicating it's intended for modern street and park skating. The overall color scheme is predominantly black with a vibrant array of interconnected stickers and graphics in green, red, white, and black hues. Notable graphic elements include several skull motifs, a red demon-like face with '666' and 'RA' lettering, a green-outlined circular graphic with 'Top Ramondetta', and another large green-outlined oval with 'REAL RAMONDETTA'. Other distinct features include a 'Give Peace a Chance' peace sign graphic, a 'Made in SF' element, a stylized female figure, a green creature or alien face, and text that appears to read 'Peter Ramondetta DEADs'. The deck shows signs of use consistent with a used skateboard, including some scuffs, scratches, and potentially pressure dents on the rails, though the majority of the graphic appears intact. The very top and bottom edges show some wear. The overall aesthetic is gritty and punk-inspired, aligning with traditional skateboarding culture.
