Dumpster Diver by Dane Reynolds

Sima Award
Dumpster Diver – “Voted 2010 SIMA Board of the year”

Model Description

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.

Make this an ECOBOARD

Feedback

Short, wide and ugly, but fun and fast.

Ideal Wave Size

Small to med surf, launching. Intermediate to expert.

    Great for all around surf. Easy to duck dive and is so easy to pick up waves. Worth every penny spent!

    Bought a 5’10 Dumpster Diver last week. Riden it in knee high slop and punchy head high surf and it’s awesome! I’m 6’3 and 190lbs and it paddled really easy! Got into waves early and with it’s short wide outline was really fast and fun to ride! There’s a serios amount of tail rocker in this board which is amazing for snapping off the top and releasing the tail really easily! I also have a Fred Rubble and Motorboat, I find the Dumpster Diveer fits in between the two and compliments my quiver nicely. Thanks Al!
