skateboard deck
Rider's standing surface
The deck is the flat board part of a skateboard—the platform where the rider stands.
Decks are typically made of laminated maple wood, with a curved nose and tail for performing tricks.
Skaters choose decks by width, shape, and graphic design: I just picked up a new deck from the shop.
