The Tilt Selects Nikita deck is made for riders who are done with generic setups. Measuring 6.5 x 23.5 inches, it already commands respect at first glance, but it really comes alive when you start moving. The geometry is designed based on Nikita’s own vision, and you can feel that — it’s well-balanced and especially stable during whip and bar combos, even when you're going full speed.
Every inch of the deck reflects intentional design and quality materials. Made from 6061-T6 aluminum, the frame is not just lightweight (around 2 kg) but also built to take a beating. The bottom is completely flat, which comes in handy not only for grinds but also when landing tricks where precision matters. The 3D machined headtube and aggressive 84-degree angle show that Tilt focused on performance rather than trends.
Welded dropouts and the fixed, yet adjustable fender are classic Tilt features — and not without reason. These choices keep the design clean and reduce moving parts, meaning fewer chances of failure. The center-weighted build makes the deck feel responsive and controlled, especially when you're throwing down fast and technical combos. It’s a shape that really matches Nikita’s own riding style.
Tilt is the kind of brand that’s never satisfied with just "good." The American manufacturer has always obsessed over the details, and that’s most obvious in the Selects line. If you’re looking for something with a bit more soul than mass-produced options, the Nikita deck might just be what’s been missing from your setup.
