Just saw an article in Transword wakebaording about the 20 best board graphics....must be a very personal thing because I think most of them are awful. Most of my favourites are nowhere to be seen.
The actual photo's of the boards they use don't help the article (you can barely see the Premier):

Some of them, The Frontier, theTrip, the Krown Royale, the B-Side and the Response are ugly.
What are your favourite designs?

'01 and '02 Premiers were sick! Especially the 140 black/red one.

Can't believe they forgot this one haha. Cool thread though and I really liked Murray's old board from back in the day that had a VW bug on it (I think). I tried finding a pic but couldn't. That thing was sweet.

I'm pretty certain that was Murray's actual vw as well. Not sure if that was the one that was used as a slider by byerly back in the day, but it could be that same one as well.

Hi all. Those boards look sick, but let me show you an european wake/skate brand that has really unique and cool design.
more on: http://21rope.com/
(I'm not related to brand in any way, I just think that when talking about boar design they deserve to be mentioned)

Byerly bought his bug from drew mcguckin. I don't think that board ever belonged to shaun.
Also, i agree in that some of their graphic choices were weird. But as they say, it's all subjective and i think personal experience and associations can tie pretty heavily into it. At least the 4-trac is on that list.

The 2005 Parks with the HR Giger inspired graphics... those were epic.... really next level. I've seen other board graphics that I like more, but those really stood out.
2012 Kine from Slingshot I love too.

I have the Murray board at home with the VW. Loved that board. Honeycomb, super light, and fun! Bought in college on a credit card that probably took me ten years to pay off, lol. Wish I was at home but will have to pull it out of the attic and get a pic of it later... Always liked the bottom graphic too!
