Will Cortez Memento Mori Pro Model Skateboard Deck — Ghost Pirate Art by Tim Baron | Team Mexico | Super 8 Skateboard Co.

Dead men tell no tales — but they do make incredible skateboard art. The Will Cortez Memento Mori Pro Model is the signature board of Will Cortez (@willcortez9), the Texas-raised, Mexican national team skater flying the flag for Team Mexico in park and vert. Graphic artist Tim Baron gives Will's pro model a striking ghost pirate theme built around the haunting Latin phrase memento mori — "remember you must die" — a swashbuckling, skull-and-bones tribute to mortality, fearlessness, and going for broke.

It's a fitting graphic for the rider. Representing his mother's Mexican heritage, Will chased Olympic qualification with relentless drive, trains hard, owns and runs Cortez Skateshop, and gives back to the skate community on both sides of the border — bringing boards to kids who need them and volunteering his time. The Memento Mori is the board of a skater who lives every session like it counts.

Built on a true popsicle shape with traditional 7-ply maple construction, the Will Cortez Pro Model delivers the durable, sturdy, and poppy feel that's defined modern skating for decades — exactly what you want whether you're dropping in on vert, flowing the park like Will, or working ledges at your local spot. The medium concave profile locks your feet in for confident control on airs, grinds, manuals, and flip tricks.

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 Will Cortez Memento Mori is independent skateboarding the way it should be: real wood, real art, real heart. Live fast, skate hard, remember you must die.
