The Chocolate Deck Vincent Alvarez Western (8.25") is a nod to rugged individuality, fast-footed street tech, and the long-standing core values of Chocolate Skateboards. With its bold, distressed Western-style typography stamped vertically down the center, this deck immediately commands attention. The large “CHOCOLATE” lettering is printed in an off-white tone that contrasts sharply with the deep black stain, giving it that timeless black-and-bone aesthetic. Below, the phrase “A SKATEBOARD COMPANY” locks it in with classic typewriter vibes, grounding the visual in Chocolate’s strong, no-frills identity.
This deck comes in at 8.25" wide by 31.875" long with a G052 shape, offering a versatile platform for both tech-heavy ledge work and medium-impact street skating. It features a standard popsicle silhouette with a balanced concave and responsive tail/nose geometry, suitable for skaters who like precision without sacrificing board feel. Constructed from 7-ply maple, it delivers consistent snap and dependable strength.

Chocolate Skateboards, founded in 1994 as an offshoot of Girl Skateboards, has always embodied a tight-knit crew mentality. Known for its diverse team, playful graphics, and deep roots in LA street skating, Chocolate has been a cultural force in skateboarding for decades—merging art, identity, and authenticity into every deck. This graphic continues that tradition by leaning into classic Americana fontwork while still feeling modern and clean.
Vincent Alvarez, a key member of the Chocolate team since the late 2000s, brings a raw, powerful style that blends fast lines with creative spontaneity. Hailing from East LA, Alvarez was handpicked by legends like Rick Howard and Mike Carroll for his work ethic and unfiltered energy. His parts in “Pretty Sweet,” “Bunny Hop,” and countless street edits reflect a skater who’s just as comfortable blasting down the street as he is threading tight manual combos. This deck represents not just his name but his influence—aggressive, adaptable, and grounded in grit.
Whether you’re stacking clips or just mobbing through your city, the Vincent Alvarez Western deck is a true workhorse built for heavy street missions and built with Chocolate’s tried-and-true legacy.
