Santa Cruz Dressen Pup Reissue Deck

The Cruz Missile II concave is more aggressive than a standard mellow concave. It features a distinct side-to-side curvature and a forward-set rocker that creates a locked-in sensation, making it ideal for riders who want extra leverage during transition skating or carving.

While the shape is inspired by 1980s transition boards, its 9.5-inch width and versatile geometry make it capable for street cruising and park riding. However, because it has a longer tail than nose, it is primarily optimized for transition and bowl skating rather than technical flip tricks.

This deck is built using seven plies of North American Maple pressed individually with epoxy. This modern construction method provides a stiffer, more responsive feel and better long-term pop retention compared to traditional glue-pressed decks.

The deck is 9.5 inches wide with a 14.5-inch wheelbase. Given the width, you will want to pair this with trucks that have a similar axle width to ensure stability and proper turning geometry.

No, this is a deck-only purchase. You will need to purchase grip tape separately to customize the board to your preference.
