The Metaluna Blue Foil Popsicle Skateboard Deck — This Island Earth Art by Tim Baron | 7.75" to 9" | Super 8 Skateboard Co.
The Metaluna returns — and this time it arrives in shimmering blue metallic foil. A tribute to the unforgettable Metaluna Mutant from the 1955 atomic-age sci-fi classic This Island Earth, this deck pairs Tim Baron's original Metaluna artwork with a brilliant blue foil finish that catches the light like a transmission from another galaxy. It's the bug-eyed, big-brained alien horror of golden-age sci-fi, beamed onto a modern popsicle and dialed up with cosmic shine.
Built on a true popsicle shape with traditional 7-ply maple construction, The Metaluna Blue Foil delivers the durable, sturdy, and poppy feel that's defined modern street skating for decades. The medium concave profile locks your feet in for confident control on ledges, manuals, and flip tricks — without going so deep that it kills your bowl runs or transition lines.
The headline here is that blue metallic foil: a reflective, eye-catching finish that makes Tim Baron's Metaluna artwork leap off the bottom of the board and turns this deck into a true centerpiece — as much wall art as it is a ride. And with seven widths from 7.75" up to 9.00", you can dial in exactly the deck that matches your stance, your foot size, and your style. Each size is tuned with its own length, nose, tail, and wheelbase, so you get a true progression — not just the same shape stretched bigger.
Skate it hard, hang it on the wall, or do both. The Metaluna Blue Foil is independent skateboarding the way it should be: real wood, real art, real atomic-age shine. Beam one up before it heads back to the stars.
