The Santa Cruz Dressen Pup Reissue Deck brings Eric Dressen’s 1989 shape back with full vintage energy, classic Santa Cruz style, and a compact old-school feel that is ready to ride or collect. Featuring Dressen Pup artwork on a natural brown stain, this reissue captures a legendary era of skateboarding while keeping the construction strong and responsive for modern sessions.
At 9.5″ x 29.44″ with a 14.5″ wheelbase, the shape delivers a solid platform for cruising streets, carving transitions, setting up an old-school complete, or adding a standout piece to the wall. Built from 7-ply North American maple and pressed individually with epoxy, the deck is made for lasting pop, consistent concave, dependable kick, and a crisp board feel underfoot.
The Cruz Missile II concave brings Santa Cruz’s infamous 1980s tech concave back into the mix with aggressive, multi-dimensional side-to-side shaping, tail kick, and forward-set rocker that helps lock your feet into key zones.
Whether you are chasing that classic 80s Santa Cruz setup, building a fun shaped cruiser, or celebrating Eric Dressen’s deep skate legacy, the Dressen Pup Reissue delivers the look, feel, and heritage that made these boards so iconic.

Santa Cruz Skateboards, nestled in the skateboarder's paradise of Santa Cruz, California, burst onto the scene in 1973. Picture this: Richard Novak, Doug Haut, and Jay Shuirman, probably sporting some epic '70s hairdos, get together and say, "Hey, let's start NHS Inc. and shake up the skate world."
With over four decades of skateboarding smarts (that's like, 280 in dog years of skate knowledge), Santa Cruz isn't just a brand; it's a skateboarding legend. Thanks to the mind-blowing graphics from the artist extraordinaire Jim Phillips, their decks are more iconic than a rock star's guitar.
And let's talk about NHS's brand family – it's like the Avengers of skateboarding gear. They distribute the who's who of skate brands: Santa Cruz Skateboards (obviously), Creature Skates for the monster in you, Independent Truck Co. (the backbone of your board), Bronson Speed Co. (because who doesn't like speed?)!
