The Girl Deck Rick Howard Full Court Reissue (7.75) brings back one of the most memorable graphics from Girl Skateboards' early years, celebrating the brand's creative spirit and basketball-inspired aesthetic that helped define an era of 1990s skateboarding. The graphic transforms the entire deck into a full basketball court, complete with painted keys, center court markings, basketballs lining the top border, and vibrant red baselines. Illustrated players battle for rebounds, loose balls, and jump shots across the court, while the classic Girl basketball logo sits proudly at center court with the commemorative "Rick Howard Full Court 1993" insignia. Printed over a beautiful natural wood veneer, the artwork blends clean cartoon illustration with timeless skate graphics, making this reissue equally suited for riding or displaying.
As one of the original founders of Girl Skateboards, Rick Howard helped redefine modern street skateboarding both on and off the board. Known for his effortless switch stance, technical innovation, and unmistakable style, Howard co-founded Girl alongside Mike Carroll in 1993 after leaving Plan B to create a rider-owned company built around creativity, personality, and skateboarding culture. He later co-founded Lakai Footwear and helped produce legendary videos including Mouse, Yeah Right!, Fully Flared, and Pretty Sweet. His influence continues to shape generations of skateboarders, making this Full Court Reissue a meaningful tribute to both his legacy and Girl's enduring impact on skateboarding.
Built on Shape G009, the Girl Deck Rick Howard Full Court Reissue (7.75) measures 7.75" x 31.125" with a 13.8125" wheelbase, 6.625" nose, and 6.4875" tail. This compact shape features a round nose, full blunt tail, and straight rails, creating a responsive setup that's ideal for younger skaters, technical street skating, or anyone who prefers a narrower deck with quick flip response. As the smallest shape in Girl's current lineup, it offers crisp control while maintaining the premium construction Girl has been known for since the beginning.
Manufactured from premium 7-ply hard rock maple, the deck delivers dependable pop, long-lasting durability, and the consistent feel trusted by skateboarders worldwide. Whether you're skating ledges in Monrovia, cruising through South Pasadena, stacking clips in Claremont, or exploring street spots throughout the San Gabriel Valley, this reissue blends nostalgic style with modern performance. The detailed full-court illustration captures the playful personality that has always separated Girl from the rest of the industry while honoring one of skateboarding's most influential rider-owned brands.
Whether you're a longtime collector of classic Girl graphics, a fan of Rick Howard's legendary career, or simply appreciate timeless skateboard artwork, the Girl Deck Rick Howard Full Court Reissue (7.75) stands as an authentic piece of skateboarding history that continues to inspire riders more than three decades after its original release.
