Takeover
Updated for 2025, the Takeover features
classic curves and modern specs
at a new, lower price.
With a symmetrical taper for maximum control in any stance,
and additional wheelbase options from 24 to 26 inches,
this timeless tool is tuned to turn your life around.
Pressed, cut and painted at our shop in Rhode Island
with nine plys of FSC-certified maple.
Comet is powered by a small team—we dedicate most of our time to manufacturing decks and do not have full-time assembly and fulfillment personnel at the moment.
We ship orders once per week, around midday on Tuesdays.
Thank you for your understanding!
SHAPE
A current take on a Comet classic, today’s Takeover showcases our much-loved rocker/concave platform in a shape and size suited to the components and riding styles of the modern era.
At 36 inches long, the Takeover welcomes gravity enthusiasts of all sizes. It is both stable at speed and maneuverable when meandering.
The 2025 Takeover is 9.9 inches at its widest and 9.4 inches underfoot in front and back, providing even leverage for digging into drifts and skating switch. Our all-new reverse taper ensures your slide is supported no matter where you stand.
The 2025 Takeover sports wheelbases ranging from 24 to 26 inches in half-inch increments, providing ample adjustability to match your stance and place your favorite components exactly where you want them.
CONSTRUCTION
We build Takeovers to be durable, eco-effective and accessible—a perfect deck for starting out at speed and a reliable tool for years to come.
The Takeover’s layup is simple and strong: nine plies of FSC-certified maple held together with skate-specific wood glue, providing rigidity and vibration dampening without the complexities or costs of composite materials. Give it all you’ve got and know that when your time together is done, the Takeover’s materials can return the earth responsibly.
