The Black Label Deck Team Shredded Barcode (9.88") is a loud and unfiltered tribute to skateboarding's anti-corporate roots. Measuring 9.88" x 32.25" with the option of a 14.5" or 15" wheelbase, this custom-shaped old school board has a bold presence built for transitions, pool lines, and power pushing. The shape screams classic: a squared tail, broad platform, and spooned nose designed for everything from hill bombs to parking lot slappies.
The standout graphic slashes through conformity with a glitch-style stack of torn barcodes, layered atop one another and stamped with the Black Label battle cry: “NEVER BE BOUGHT. NEVER BE SOLD.” It’s more than a slogan—it’s the philosophy of John Lucero, the skater-artist who launched Black Label in 1988 after cutting his teeth with brands like Variflex and Schmitt Stix. Lucero’s vision has always been about honoring the rebellious, DIY spirit of skateboarding while refusing to water it down for mass consumption.
Constructed with 7-ply hardwood maple laminate, this deck delivers on both strength and pop. Each one comes with assorted top and bottom wood stains, so no two setups are exactly alike. That randomness isn’t just a manufacturing choice—it’s part of the Label's attitude: unique, unpredictable, and unapologetically raw.
This deck is built for skaters who want something with grit, not polish. If you’re into crushing coping or just cruising with style, this shape delivers performance with character. Black Label doesn’t chase trends—they run them over.
