It was the fall of 2006, Line's website was launching, ski magazines
were out and J-Lev & co. were about to ship shops what they were
calling 'the most progressive park ski of the time.' It was a new model
called the Anthem with a 93mm waist, Butter Zones, 100% symmetric,
center mounted jib ski designed to slay the park. The graphics were as
unique as its design. It was a collage of rock and roll musicians with
the best base graphics ever conceived, zebra stripes. It was all hand
drawn by Line's in-house artist of the time, Tim Clayton. Skiing and
rock and roll! What's not to like? Even Maxim magazine called Line to
feature the ski in their gear section. It was then that the Anthem’s
luck turned for the worst. Not long after Maxim hit the stands Line
received a call from someone accusing them of using their image in the
graphics. Being the small brand Line is, they weren’t about to go to
court over it, so as many of you know, the ski never made it to the
market.
