The artwork on this deck, the Per Welinder Viking Skull, was originally illustrated by V.C. Johnson in 1984. This fanged fantasy graphic was intended to reflect Per's Swedish origins. In 1986, a rock texture background was added to the design, and in 1987, the full-length graphic was adapted for a street model as Per began performing freestyle and street demos.

The eighth-century Runic stone lettering on the graphic spells out Per's name, as well as the background quote, "Search and strive, push beyond with strength, yours not theirs, that is the key." This quote was a personal expression of Per's philosophy.

The Nordic Skull artwork has also been used for t-shirts and stickers, further expanding its reach and popularity among skateboarding enthusiasts.

Originally released in 1984, the Powell Peralta Per Welinder Nordic Skull Natural Skateboard Deck Reissue is a true classic that combines exceptional quality, iconic design, and a rich history within the skateboarding community. Whether you're a seasoned rider or a newcomer to the sport, this deck is sure to inspire and elevate your skateboarding experience.
