Bryce Hermansen
Date of Birth: May 13, 1988
-foreword by Greg Young-
Bryce is one of the soft-spoken leaders of the DB skimboard crew. He’s kind of a gentle giant, except he’s not a giant. That doesn’t mean he’s small either...he’s normal sized...I just feel weird calling a guy ‘gentle.’ Bryce is kind of a tough guy to describe. Bryce is just Bryce. If you meet him you’ll instantly know what I mean. He’s one of the nicest guys in the world (actually all of the DB guys are pretty much the nicest guys ever). He’s kind of goofy, can be somewhat quiet until you get to know him, is always cheerful, is super helpful, extremely humble...and he’s always late. He’s also good at every boardsport I’ve seen him do. We sponsor him for skimboarding, but the first time he came out on our boat he strapped on a wakeboard and could do more tricks than me. He’s a pretty decent surfer, good on a skateboard, and from what I’ve heard he knows his way around a snowboard.
One of the reasons I want to see DB Skimboards stay in business for a long time is because guys like Bryce deserve to win. You know what I mean. A lot of people that start companies do it for the wrong reasons, mainly to make money. Bryce is one of the owners of a skimboard company because he: a). loves to skimboard, b). gets to work with his best friends, and c). doesn’t have a boss to yell at him if he’s late...because the only time Bryce is ever on time is when he’s late. We all love him anyway.
