You can't always see him coming — but you'll never miss The Griffin Shaped Deck. A tribute to The Invisible Man, the unseen terror of 1950s sci-fi horror, this deck channels the bandaged, fade-into-nothing menace of one of the genre's most iconic monsters. Named for Griffin, the man behind the wrappings, it's a creature-feature collectible built on an authentic old-school silhouette and finished with a twist you have to see in the dark to believe.
Cut to a classic 80's Texas old-school shape, The Griffin rides wide and planted at 10.25" at its widest point and 30.5" long, with a big 6.75" tail for powerful kickturns and slashes, plus a short, slightly kicked 3" nose that keeps the profile true to the era. It's a shape made for bowls, banks, hill bombs, and carving with attitude — the kind of board 80s skaters built their styles on, reborn for today.
The kicker: a glow-in-the-dark logo top that charges in the light and disappears into the dark — fitting for a deck named after a man who vanishes in plain sight. Whether it's under your feet at the park or hanging on your wall after hours, The Griffin brings monster-movie style and old-school function in equal measure.
Catch him while you can — once he fades out, he's gone.
