I'm tired of all the new skis having 3 colors and a couple of company logos on them. I wanna see more Hellbent-esque skulls and headless horsemen or Freddy Krueger merking a bitch.
 
Armada is all into that now, and ON3P's custom designs. K2 is in that area with the retro stripes, but the nicest one were the most recent K2 shreditors' design.
 
Kinda sorta agree?

IDK, as mentioned, some brands are hitting it out of the park, another example is Line, Pollard's stuff always is great, as is Bentchetler's But I really miss the kind of busy Schmies graphics, like the Hellbent, etc, that had a bunch of small elements that all came together.

I would argue that the ski industry, as a whole, is making prettier skis now, than 5-8 years ago, even if some of the ones with the most personality are no more.
 
Unpopular opinions: on3ps skis are rather average looking except for BG’s and custom topsheets.

Moments new graphics especially wildcats are sick.

This years moment graphics are honestly some of the sickest I've seen in a while imo
 
Bring back Schmies! Stoked to see him freelancing for different companies, but damn do I miss his old stuff with K2.
 
That's why I had to buy these back when they were available. Reminded me of the old Hellbents and the graffiti comic style is dope.
 
I’ve seen this exact thread so many times and it bores me every time.Tons of companies make cool graphics in a variety of styles. If you don’t think that you aren’t looking hard enough
 
big disagree here - the 2020 marksman is literally the prettiest ski of all time (fuck outta here with ur 2006 spiderman comic vibe) 926754.png
 
The 2020 Marksmans are dope.. I mean like who would think to put a world war 1 allied plane Insignia on a ski?? If u dont get that heres a pic:
 
Have to agree on the Marksman. So subtly fuckin' ill. Also Moment's Bibby and PB&J line have all time every year the sickest graphics.

The old K2 Pettitors were always really good too.

Those are fucking sick. Definitely could have confused those for old K2s if seen from a distance.

The Grizzlycorn, Pillowfight and the veneer topsheets are hands down ON3Ps best work.
 
Dude, freeskiing (and skateboarding and pretty much any trick based sport) has grown out of the “gnarly graffiti cartoons” aesthetic by now. Modern graphics are cool in their own right, look at Line’s new stuff

Am I the only one who hates the photorealistic Wildcat graphics? I want the 2018 Bibby graphics

Aw yeah. The all-new Ed Hardy x Vishnu collab coming up so when you swerve hard the rhinestones shine in everyone’s eyes.

I fuck with this, actual rhinestones glued to the topsheet
 
4FRNT has had some of the most artistic and both aesthetically pleasing graphic designs in their recent lines of skis. Very clean lines and no obnoxious colors, just simple but also cool designs. the last year they made the YLE's had a cool graphic and the limited edition giant alien monster graphic they had on the Devastators once are insane too. My favorite skis ever and skied as great as they looked

I don't like it either. It just seems really awkward. Don't know why they throw out a graphic lineage as sick as the Bibby's.

Line sort of already did it first in 2003...

And then HG recycled the idea in 2015

True but those are world war 2 and are meant to look like they took parts off the plane with nuts and bolts and pin-up designs on the skis while the marksmans did an emblem no one has done before on a clean topsheet without images of nuts or screws or writing
