The Deathwish Deck Pedro Delfino Ritual (8.5) is a pro model built for skateboarders who thrive on speed, commitment, and all-terrain destruction. Pressed by BBS Manufacturing using premium 7-ply North American Hard Rock Maple, this deck delivers the durability, pop, and consistent feel trusted by one of the most fearless riders in modern skateboarding. Featuring an 8.5-inch width, mellow concave, and a versatile shape, it's equally at home charging handrails, attacking backyard pools, carving deep bowls, or blasting through rough street terrain.
The artwork on the Deathwish Deck Pedro Delfino Ritual (8.5) embraces the brand's signature dark aesthetic with a striking monochromatic design. A deep black background serves as the canvas for intricate silver-gray illustrations that resemble vintage occult engravings. Centered on the deck is an imposing spider-like creature with skeletal wings suspended above an inverted ram skull, connected by a hanging chain. Ornamental floral borders frame the artwork from top to bottom, giving the graphic the appearance of an antique ritual tapestry or gothic manuscript. At the nose, a radiant circular symbol surrounds a mysterious face, while the bold DELFINO name is printed across the tail in medieval-inspired lettering, completing a graphic that is haunting, elegant, and unmistakably Deathwish.
At 8.5 inches wide, this deck provides a versatile platform that blends stability with responsiveness. The 31.875-inch length and 14.25-inch wheelbase offer excellent control for transition, rails, gaps, and technical street skating. The mellow concave creates a comfortable, predictable feel underfoot, while the premium maple construction delivers crisp pop and long-lasting performance whether you're filming a street part or spending an afternoon at your local skatepark.
Professional skateboarder Pedro Delfino has become one of the most respected all-terrain riders of his generation. Born in Miami, Florida, and raised in Boca Raton, Pedro first developed his love for carving through surfing before transferring that fluid style to skateboarding. His aggressive approach to everything from massive handrails to backyard pools caught the attention of the skateboarding world after earning a memorable Thrasher Magazine cover in 2018. In 2019, Pedro officially turned professional for Deathwish Skateboards, joining an elite roster while continuing to push boundaries with powerful video parts and fearless spot selection. Alongside his sister, Fabiana Delfino, he represents one of skateboarding's most accomplished sibling duos. Pedro's sponsors include Vans, Independent Trucks, Spitfire Wheels, and Bronson Speed Co., and he remains known for his relentless "roll in or get out" mentality.
Founded by professional skateboarders Erik Ellington and Jim Greco, Deathwish Skateboards has built its reputation around uncompromising street skating, bold artwork, and premium-quality construction. Every pro model reflects the personality of its rider, and the Deathwish Deck Pedro Delfino Ritual (8.5) perfectly captures Pedro's fearless style while delivering the performance expected from one of the industry's most respected skateboard manufacturers.
Whether you're skating parks in Monrovia, searching for new street spots around Pasadena, hitting curbs in Alhambra, or cruising bowls throughout the San Gabriel Valley, this deck offers the strength, responsiveness, and timeless style needed for every type of session.
