Hook-Ups Deck Chainsaw Nikki (8.5) is pure, unapologetic Hook-Ups energy—loud, graphic-heavy, and instantly recognizable from across the park. Set against a bold blood-red background splattered with darker crimson accents, the deck centers around an anime-style nurse character mid-swing with an oversized chainsaw. The blade is angled diagonally across the top half of the graphic, detailed with metallic teeth and red splatter for dramatic effect, while the character’s white nurse cap with a red cross and short blonde hair frame sharp, confident eyes.
The artwork is classic Jeremy Klein-era chaos: saturated colors, heavy black linework, and that unmistakable blend of manga influence and grindhouse shock. The fitted nurse dress is rendered in bright white and cool blue tones, accented with gloves and thigh-high stockings that contrast against the aggressive red backdrop. The “HOOK-UPS” logo sits boldly at the top in yellow with black outline, paired with Japanese characters that reinforce the brand’s long-standing anime inspiration. It’s confrontational, collectible, and unmistakably part of skateboarding’s graphic history.
Sized at 8.5” x 32.25”, this deck offers a wider platform with added stability—ideal for transition, bowls, bigger rails, and high-speed lines. The 8.5 width gives you more board underfoot for confidence when locking into ledges or sending stair sets, while still maintaining the responsiveness needed for technical street skating. Whether you’re pushing through Duarte, lining up a rail in Alhambra, or flowing through a bowl session near Pasadena, this size feels solid and controlled without sacrificing pop.
Hook-Ups has always occupied its own lane in skateboarding—bridging anime aesthetics with raw skate culture long before it was mainstream. Chainsaw Nikki continues that legacy, delivering a graphic that’s just as much wall art as it is a functional daily rider.
