Custom Graphics on a Snowboard

So a few weeks ago I won a contest and now get to have my own graphic printed on a brand new 2010 snowboard. I was super excited when I found out, but it has led me to realize that I'm not a particularly creative guy. Most people would just put something that means a lot to them on the board, but the only thing that really means that much to me is snowboarding, so that's already been covered.

So, what would you put on it? I would really appreciate some input here. If anyone could go any further and throw me a design or point me in the direction of someone who could, I would make it worth your while. Whatever gear you need, you got it.
 
Boy, that's hard. There's so many directions that you could go. Let me brain storm, see if I can think of anything. If she would release the rights to have it done, she has some sick art that would look amazing on a snowboard.
 
you could put the trail map of your favorite mountain on it, or a picture of a sweet mountain scen or something like that.
 
Yeah, not too stoked on the trail map design. Its not very original IMO. How about a preying mantis design, or some sort of sick looking bug? Maybe a preying mantis on the nose and a crazy spider on the tail, and the middle sort of links them in some way? Or simply them fighting in the middle, have nothing on the nose or tail. Keep it simple. Don't over do a design. I'm not big on all over prints on boards, its just too much.
 
Yea, I'm a big fan of simple Enter text here.designs as well. My favorite graphic on any boarEnter text here.d this year was the Burton Fix. It's just a soliEnter text here.d Enter text here.Enter text here.colored top sheet, how lame sounding is that? But it was good looking. I'm going to try and keep it simple like that, but with neon green and neon blue sEnter text herEnter ince that's my favorite color combination!
 
My sister ended up hand-drawing a picture for me. She drew it actual size, and I think it turned out really well. It's not like any of the ideas that I originally had, but it's definitely unique. It's a little hard to see in the picture, but on the nose there's a little character in a tiny boat with a fishing rod, and in the middle is a huge monster fish swimming towards the tiny hook. At the bottom are some aqua things with my name on it.

I rode it for the first time the other day at Valle Nevado, Chile, and I loved it. I think it's funny, and every time I looked down while I was riding it made me laugh. And that was the point, to make sure I am always happy when I'm riding, so it worked! I'm super happy with it!
 
that is very sick, the only thing i dont like is when the bindings are on you wont be able to tell whats going on, i would have made it smaller around the top and made a whole underwater scene type thing, just my opinion, nice job with it tho it looks sick
 
Yea, I tried dividing the design in thirds so that the bindings wouldn't interfere too much, and I think you can still tell what's going on when the bindings are there, it's just a little clouded up.

Unfortunately for me, it looks like I'm stuck at my shitty job for another winter season, but at least that means I'll probably be getting another one of these. This time I'll spend more than a day on the design, as I have a few months to plan it.
