The Gorgon Popsicle Skateboard Deck — Harryhausen Tribute Art by Tim Baron | 7.75" to 9" | Super 8 Skateboard Co.
Don't look directly at it. The Gorgon Popsicle Skateboard Deck is one of Super 8's tributes to the legendary Ray Harryhausen monster movies of the 1960s — the golden age of stop-motion creature features that gave us snake-haired gorgons, sword-swinging skeletons, and some of the most unforgettable beasts ever brought to the screen. Graphic artist Tim Baron channels that hand-crafted, frame-by-frame magic into his original Gorgon artwork stretched across the bottom of the board — a petrifying centerpiece for any creature-feature fan.
Built on a true popsicle shape with traditional 7-ply maple construction, The Gorgon 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.
What sets The Gorgon apart from the rest of the pack is the size range. 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 — whether you're a technical street skater on a narrow 7.75", a balanced all-rounder on an 8.25", or a transition rider on an 8.80". 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 Gorgon is independent skateboarding the way it should be: real wood, real art, real monster-movie magic. Just don't meet her gaze.
