And honorable mention would be this price point anti hero I got a couple summers back it was called a budgie. It had a pigeon holding a ripped 20 dollar bill in it's beak. It was only 40 bucks and it had a stained top and middle ply. The bottom was regular non dyed. It was an 8.38/14.38. It was such a good shape. And I've been hoping they make them again but they haven't :'(
I think that board came out around pandemic shutdown issue time, so there were quite issues with supply and maybe had a mix up with a few of them around, as I had a couple as well, mine being Krooked eyes pricepoint decks, which was funny as most were the longer 8.38 x 32.25 with 14.5 wb and single top stain option to that one you are talking about, but those were different.
That shape is more the generic BBS 8.38 x 32 with 14.38 wb, or at least that is how it is listed for Passport, the Generator / shop boards / smaller run type of companies like Carpet and Alltimers, so if you really like it check out a few of those ones.
Tactics uses BBS wood and has them, just for reference:

Thank you so much! I learned so much on that shape. I'll check those brands out and see about getting one. We can always count on you with the leads on gear Brimson.
I basically only skate that shape and it is identical to the DLX 8.25. The following brands use it:
Alltimers
April
Skate Mental
Pass~Port
The Killing Floor
Metal
Carpet
Darkroom
Element
Magenta
MaxAllure pro models
Everything through Theories so Hopps, Theories, Picture Show, etc
The Polar 8.38 is suuuuper close a tad less full
Sci-Fi Fantasy
If you're in SD both Pacific Drive and Slappy's Garage shop decks
Some Frog decks
Tactics shop decks
Occasionally Primitive has it as a shape
The Heated Wheel
35th North shop decks.
Isle used to use it if you can find them
Basically any time you see 8.38x14.38 BBS it's that shape. The 14.5 shape they do is different.
