extrude the sketch to the required thickness.

realign the extruded body. I find it to be easier to center/align the extrusion then to do it with the sketch/canvas. this is just my way of doing things.

this body is just for the purpose of getting the basic shape of the board and for getting it perfectly aligned.
create form is what I used to get the concave for the deck.
make sure you have several images of the board from multiple sides so you can get a better idea of what the concave of the deck should be like. I own this deck so I had it in front of me to measure and I was constantly rotating it around in my hands to get the shape right. the create form tool is kinda difficult to use I’d recommend watching a video on youtube. it really helps.

thicken it then cut it using the face of the flat body from earlier. I use intersect for this.
