J skis put bob ross on a ski and everyone lost their shit. Mid graphics, something out of a high school graphic designs class.

Say what you want about k2s durability but they have killed it for top sheets for years now. ON3P and Vishnu are good looking to me also

hahah not all j skis graphics are a win, but each year I think they have a few winners. K2 is up there too

Different aesthetics, companies will make more money off of minimalistic designs than they would have say 5-10 years ago

ON3P Pillow Fight. no idea what year but i'd say several years ago, i feel like i saw that graphic a literal decade ago. don't quote me on that though
 
Surface has been in the minimalism game forever tho but they do a good job of it

but I hate minimalism, its lame and uncreative if you don't add a touch of uniqueness and personality to it.

maximalism, can be good, but also people get lazy with it and make shit way too busy to the point where its hard to look at

you really need a healthy balance of putting both simplicity and a strong sense of personality and creativity to your art
 
Facts dude, the I have 2021 Armada ARV 96's and that's when topsheets were good, I love the art and color and they are just fire. The 2022 skis really need to up the topsheet game.
 
I always wanted a pair of the Afterbangs back when they had the wicked comic graphics and the wood sidewalls. so sick

It’s a shame they were some of the worst performing park skis. I think the graphics were the reason they sold so well especially among kids.

Matching. Did you do it on purpose?

Funny story. I had to warranty my old boots to Dalbello bc I split the old shell in half, and last seasons replacement was a matching color so I suppose it worked out I guess.

I took this pic March of 2012 and those were some proto Jeffrey 110's. So actual PF run was 2011 I would say.

Everyone did, those things were the worst skis of all time lmao. I really like where surface is at now, and their quality has gone up a lot... But damn these things were disposable from what I remember.

Fun fact...

I designed these graphics a few years before I started working at K2. Holding back getting into story time and how this (anti)graphic came to be.1057609.jpeg
 
These graphics are a decade old.

Getting mad at surface for having minimalist graphics is like yelling at the sky for being blue.

Also yeah, Brad Walters please share.
