deathbox 

This is a small rectangular section of an in-ground pool recessed into the top of the pool wall. This recess forms a small bench or platform. It is refered to a "swimout" in the commercial pool industry.

The "swimout" became the "deathbox" as skaters (i.e. the z-boys) began to ride the vertical walls of pools in much the same way as the face of a wave can be surfed. This recess offered the skater a excellent opportunity to leave the surface of the pool altogether, catch some air, and then drop back into the bowl of the pool. If re-entry was not done correctly, things could go horribly wrong, and thus the name "deathbox".
Brah are you okay, I thought you were a gonner when you bailed on that deathbox.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
