Santa Cruz Salba Tiger Hand Pro Shaped Skateboard Deck
 
Artwork & Design
This is Steve “Salba” Alba’s pro shaped model featuring the striking “Tiger Hand” graphic, presented in a bold spot-matte finish. The design merges two iconic Santa Cruz visuals—Salba’s tiger theme and the Screaming Hand—into a high-impact graphic laid over stained or natural woodgrain veneer.
 
Construction & Concave
The deck is constructed using 7-ply North American maple and pressed individually with epoxy resin. This provides long-lasting pop, consistent shape retention, and dependable durability. It features a medium-depth concave that offers responsive foot placement and comfort across a range of terrains, from street to bowl.
