5'8" Al Merrick Designs - Dumpster Diver

Our board designs are direct results of team feedback, so when Dane showed up at the factory in early 2010 requesting a short wide epoxy with single concave and a huge square tail to make the summer bearable, the Dumpster Diver was born. When he came back a week later and wanted one with a narrower nose and a Rookie tail template for the Trestles contest in 3 days, the 2nd Generation Dumpster Diver was created and remained under his feet all the way through to his first final at the WCT Trestles 2009. Voted SIMA board of the year for 2010. The Dumpster has a ton of curve in a short package, so stick to the pocket and keep it on rail.

Ride 1″ to 4″ shorter than your height.
