The Real Skateboards Ishod Wair Rainbow Monarch Twin Tail Deck (8.3") is a vibrant and meticulously crafted skateboard deck that embodies both artistic flair and high-performance functionality. The bottom graphic showcases a bold, multicolored monarch butterfly, symbolizing transformation and freedom, set against a tie-dye fade with a four-color stain, creating a visually striking appearance. This design is further enhanced by a transparent rainbow holographic finish, adding depth and a dynamic visual effect that changes with the light.
Founded in 1991 by skateboarding legends Tommy Guerrero and Jim Thiebaud, Real Skateboards has established itself as a cornerstone in the skateboarding community. Known for its commitment to quality, innovation, and supporting a diverse team of riders, Real has consistently delivered products that resonate with both amateur and professional skateboarders. Their ethos centers around authenticity and a deep-rooted passion for skateboarding culture.
Ishod Wair, born on November 1, 1991, in Bordentown, New Jersey, discovered skateboarding at the age of nine. His dedication to the sport led him to shift focus from other activities, such as basketball, to fully immerse himself in skateboarding. In 2009, at 18, Ishod participated in the Tampa Am competition, where, despite not reaching the finals, he garnered attention by distributing promotional DVDs to potential sponsors. This initiative led to Real Skateboards providing him with free boards for over a year before officially adding him to their amateur team and turning him pro in 2011. In 2013, Ishod was honored with Thrasher Magazine's Skater of the Year award, recognizing his exceptional talent and contributions to the skateboarding world.
The Rainbow Monarch Twin Tail Deck is designed with Ishod's signature twin tail shape, allowing for a balanced feel and versatility in performing tricks. The deck measures 8.3 inches in width and 31.9 inches in length, with a 14.4-inch wheelbase, providing a stable platform suitable for various skateboarding styles. Constructed with 7-ply maple, it ensures durability and a responsive ride.
