Abstract: A laminated deck for a skateboard comprises a plurality of layers of graphite cloth alternating with a plurality of layers of a laminating resin. The deck is formed after treating the layers of material for between one-half hour to six hours under a vacuum at a temperature ranging from ambient temperature to 600 degrees F., depending upon the manufacturing process, whether using a hand layup process, or multiple layers of graphite cloth containing a laminating resin (“pre-preg” material). An additional lower layer of fiberglass, which can become the deck bottom, may be used in both processes. The laminated skateboard deck has properties that are at least comparable to those of wooden skateboard decks.
