Product Blog: Yellowood – Picnic Table
February 27, 2019 by MartinB. | 10:12 am
Yellowood is a well known fingerboard brand from Portugal. Philippe and his company is not only known for his decks or the YStore, this brand is known for great obstacles and new product developement.
Today we will take a look at something for the real metal heads of the scene. A picnic table is a classic obstacle in the skateboard scene and in the fingerboard scene as well. Every fingerboarder has a picnic table at the house just because we love the realistic look.
Philippe released an update on the normal picnic tables. These are mostly made from wood, he took metal for the ultimate grind feeling. So check out some metal for your fingers:
Shape:
Size: Super long 3cm x 7cm heigth.

Complex and hard to make metal Picnic table. A realistic looking obstacle made to last years. All in metal it is solid and long perfect to land tricks, a beauty for any park. The metal is painted with a super nice brown color so you get some wooden look on the metal. The craftmanship and the paintjob on this one is just perfect. Just check out the pictures.
All I can say, I really like the feeling of grinds on this one. It feels so much better than a wooden table. Just try it! Get your personal Deawon Song out and start doing crazy combos!
OK, so this is not made from wood so this might be a bit more expensive, right? Well, yes it is. This picnic table is about 50 Euro. A normal wooden table in this size from other companies is about 20 Euros. The metal version seems to be expensive but if you compare both prices this one is more than OK!
You can get such a dope table right over at the Yellowood webshop: Click!
Why did this product blog took so long? Well, my time is limited. Since I´m a father it´s even more limited. It´s hard to do all the work. I´m glad you company owners have the pantience :-)
THX a lot to Portugal! Have a sunny day my friend!

Product Blog: Yellowood – Yellowprint
January 7, 2019 by MartinB. | 9:56 am
Something about two years ago Yellowood dropped their first and amazing 34mm deck lineup. I´ve used the YTrucks neutral deck for some more months and all I can say: 34mm is awesome. Today we will take a look at another 34mm flagship from Yellowood, the “Yellowprint” design (by Pedro Costa @Campovisual) deck for 2019. So consider this deck as an artist series deck:
Shape:
This deck got the reinvented z4 shape with 34mm width. The kicks on the new decks/shape are now more wide and round. Many of you got a Yellowood deck in the past and you will see and feel the difference. You can get a deck at Yellowood in 32mm, 33mm and 34mm!

Please note: On some of these pictures the deck is in a glass. It may look a little bit different. Trust me, it´s perfect.
What to tell about Yellowood?
Yellowood decks are well done, pro quality and the graphics are clean and sharp. In comparison to my last Yellowood deck I would say the quality of the print of this graphic is even higher than before. This fingerboard is handmade of 5 plies of exotic premium wood. The craftmanship is professional as always at Yellowood products. This deck will last a long time with excellent performance and pop. The Yellowood quality is tested by some of the best fingerboarders worldwide. 34mm decks/wide decks aren´t something new in total. But if you combine this deck with the YTrucks X5 in true 34mm you really got a gamechanger! You won´t regret buying such a new 34mm ship! I really like the width oft this deck, so I made this graphic together with my new X5 trucks to my actual setup. The blue is just stunning and I totally love this graphic.
Coming back to the deck, buy it right over here at the Yellowoodstore: Click! If you don´t like this super dope graphic at all, just take the one you like. The 2019 graphics are super colorful and cool. AND more decks are available in 34mm width. Get a set of YTrucks and you will ave the ultimate 34mm experience. BTW. Philippe just announced some some updates on YTrucks for 2019. Just check out @yellowood on Instagram to keep yourself updated!
HUGE shouout to Philippe for this super cool package!
