Dustin "Daewoo/Nitewoo" Chrysler
Dustin is a very interesting specimen. After working in the entertainment industry for years he decided to hang up the headphones and join the crew. For a man that would go on international tours with popstars like Justin Timberlake we still can't believe that he decided to work at this place. I mean the man was actually on JT's instagram! Even though he probably made a terrible decision to leave his dream job, we love having him here at the shop sharing his stoke with the crew and customers. The one thing we can all agree on is that he coudn't kiteboard on the clock at his old job. Dustin can boost better than pretty much everyone at the shop and is beholden to his beloved Motos. The dude loves to rip our local spot and enjoys ripping brews after the session even more.
