Dagen has been killing it in Canada alongside his brother Ryder for years now!
Dagen Duczek is a fierce competitor and longtime standout on the Phase 5 team, representing the brand as one of its pioneering Canadian riders since joining the Grom Squad in his early teens alongside brother Ryder. Hailing from Cranbrook, British Columbia, Dagen has turned the challenges of a short season into fuel for elite-level progression, mastering an aggressive, high-energy skim style packed with technical tricks, big spins, shuvs, and innovative combos that make his rides a thrill to watch. His early achievements include a 1st-place win in Juniors at multiple events, a strong 2nd in Amateur Men's Skim at the 2020 World Wakesurf Championships, and consistent podiums in youth and amateur divisions that showcased his potential from a young age. Now a pro contender, Dagen battles at the top in events like the Wake Canada Nationals and BC/Alberta Provincials, often sharing the podium with brother Ryder in intense brother-vs-brother showdowns while contributing to Phase 5's strong Canadian presence.
Riding primarily the Matrix—a high-performance skim board that suits his precise, powerful approach—Dagen thrives on Phase 5's innovative shapes that reward speed, control, and creativity in limited riding time. He balances competition with coaching and lessons through the Duczek Brothers platform, sharing his expertise on everything from beginner fundamentals to advanced tricks while promoting the sport in Canada. A multi-sport athlete with a passion for the outdoors, Dagen brings relentless drive, family support, and infectious stoke to every session. As a veteran of the Phase 5 family, he continues to push skim boundaries, inspire up-and-coming riders, and prove that geographic hurdles are no match for dedication and talent in the evolving pro scene.
