Monument Crete V2 Parking Curb - 6" Fingerboard Street Obstacle

The Shape
The curb is the piece that lives out on the desk. At three quarters of an inch tall it's low commitment from flat, the top edge takes grinds and slides down its whole 6 inch run, and it stacks into any line you build around it.

What Is Monument Crete?
Monument Crete is our own cast stone: a polymer gypsum composite reinforced with glass fiber, hand poured in small batches in Rochester, NY. Pick a piece up and the first thing you notice is the weight. Every one is solid stone all the way through, no hollow core, and the surface rides like polished concrete: smooth, hard, and fast under a wheel. That's why the line is called Monument: each piece is made the way a monument is made, poured into a mold, cured, and finished by hand, and it lands in your hand like one. Riding it feels like grinding the polished granite base of a statue in a city park, minus the security guard. The glass fiber holds the edges and corners where grinds hit hardest.

Second Generation Pour
V2 is the second generation of Monument Crete, and more than the mix changed. The pour carries more glass fiber for tougher edges and corners, the molds are upgraded materials that cast a finer, cleaner surface, and the Sterling Gray pigment is slightly updated. Same weight class, stronger and sharper where it counts.

Wear and Patina
The riding surfaces scuff, mark, and darken where you ride, the same way real street concrete builds a patina. Truck marks on the edges are part of the look, not a defect you need to worry about. Wipe it with a dry cloth and keep it dry.

On the Desk
Every piece ships with a sheet of non-slip foam tape for the base, so it stays planted on a desk without sliding around. It's dense, so treat it like the stone it is and don't drop it on hard floors.

Teak Guarantee

Is this real concrete?
Technically no, but that's a materials science answer, not a how-it-feels answer. Monument Crete is a cast polymer gypsum composite reinforced with glass fiber, and in your hand you'd be extremely hard pressed to tell it from polished concrete: the same density, the same cool surface, the same way it scuffs into a patina. The differences show up where you want them: it casts finer detail than a real pour, and the glass fiber makes the edges tougher.

Is it solid or hollow?
Solid cast stone all the way through, no hollow core. The Parking Curb weighs 6.4 oz, 182 g, and that mass is what keeps it planted when you ride it.

How big is the riding surface?
The flat top is a half inch wide and runs the full 6 inch length of the curb.

Will it damage my desk or table?
It ships with a sheet of non-slip foam tape for the base, which keeps it planted and protects the surface under it. The obstacle itself is dense, so don't drop it on hard floors.

Does it fit all fingerboards?
Yes. These are open riding surfaces scaled for standard fingerboards, so deck width doesn't matter: narrow old school decks, 32mm and 34mm standards, and 36mm and wider shapes all ride the same obstacles.

How does it wear over time?
The riding surfaces scuff and darken with use, the same way real street spots do. Grind marks build a patina rather than breaking the surface, and the glass fiber reinforcement keeps edges from chipping under normal riding.

What does V2 mean?
V2 is the second generation of Monument Crete: more glass fiber in the pour for tougher edges, upgraded mold materials that cast a finer surface, and a slightly updated Sterling Gray pigment. The original pieces are being retired as they sell through, so V2 is the Monument line going forward. If you own originals, expect a subtle shade difference side by side.
