Foundation Skateboards Control Deck
The Foundation Skateboards Control Deck is the Corey Glick Control 8.50, a pro model skate deck from Foundation built around Corey Glick's own signature shape and dimensions.
Deck Dimensions
This deck measures 8.50 in width and 32.38 in length, with a 14.50 wheelbase, a 7.25 nose, and a 6.88 tail. That combination gives it a mid width platform with a slightly longer nose than tail, a shape geared toward riders who want a balanced deck for both street and transition skating.
Who This Deck Is For
An 8.50 width deck sits in the popular mid range size that suits a wide range of riders and riding styles, from street skating around South Florida's parks and plazas to transition riding at a local skatepark. The 14.50 wheelbase keeps the truck mounting holes at a standard, stable spacing, so it works well for anyone stepping up from a smaller deck or looking for a proven pro shape rather than a shop brand blank.
Setting Up and Maintaining the Deck
Like any skateboard deck, how long it lasts comes down to setup and care as much as the wood itself. Mounting trucks with the proper hardware length for an 8.50 deck, keeping bearings clean, and avoiding standing water on the board all help preserve the pop and shape of a deck like this one. Riders swapping decks regularly should also check that grip tape is applied evenly edge to edge for consistent foot control on the nose and tail measurements above.
Foundation Skateboards and Corey Glick
Foundation Skateboards is a core skateboarding brand, and the Control model featured here is Corey Glick's signature shape, giving riders access to the same deck dimensions that Corey rides himself rather than a generic team shape.
