The Doctor Syn Twin-Tail Skateboard Deck — Peter Cushing Tribute Art by Tim Baron | 8.625" | Super 8 Skateboard Co.
Behold — The Doctor Syn, Super 8's tribute to the legendary Peter Cushing, the actor who defined Gothic horror across decades of monster cinema. This one's a love letter to his most iconic roles: graphic artist Tim Baron renders Van Helsing — Cushing's fearless vampire hunter — on the top, and Dr. Victor Frankenstein — his obsessive, brilliant creator — below, two faces of one horror titan on a single board.
What makes The Doctor Syn unmistakable is the twin-tail design — a symmetrical, double-kicked silhouette with a tail on both ends. It's a shape made for skaters who ride switch as naturally as regular, want pop in both directions, and like the balanced, locked-in feel of a true symmetrical deck. Measuring 32" long and 8.625" wide, with a stable 14.25" wheelbase and matching 6.75" nose and 6.75" tail, it's a roomy, planted platform that's equally at home on transition, in the park, or cruising with attitude.
Built to Super 8's standard of durable, poppy construction, The Doctor Syn is equal parts trick machine and creature-feature collectible. Tim Baron's dual-portrait artwork makes it a centerpiece worth hanging on the wall when it's not under your feet — a tribute piece for horror fans and skaters alike.
Skate it hard, hang it on the wall, or do both. The Doctor Syn is independent skateboarding the way it should be: real wood, real art, real Gothic-horror legend.
