Both the sole and deck have scratches from use. It doesn't affect the riding experience (in my amateur opinion). I used it for 2-3 seasons for JSBA certification tests. I think it's the perfect choice for obtaining Level 1 certification. In 2024, I had it waxed before the season started, and I only rode it twice before storing it indoors. How about it for those aiming to pass the certification test? Please research the model year yourself. The white painted parts have stickers on them. I just peeled them off, but there are some marks left. They are not very noticeable, but I will try to remove them. Please consider this if you are not concerned about it. - Design: Colorful bird graphic - Base color: Black - Logo: Blue logo Thank you for looking. Type...Board Popular model/series...CT
