Embodiments described herein are directed to a reversible deck system. The deck system is described as reversible because it may be installed onto the deck structure in two different orientations. In a first orientation, a walking surface is facing upward. The walking surface is substantially solid (e.g., without gaps) and forms a final finished surface of a deck. In a second orientation, the walking surface is facing downward. In the downward facing orientation, a joist structure onto which deck boards may be installed is facing upward. The reversible deck system includes four major structural members, including a wide deck plank, a narrow deck plank, a tongue edge cap, and a groove edge cap. In an aspect, the major structural members may be formed through an aluminum extrusion process.
