It's a fun little jab, but yeah, I definitely wonder how it would be received if it was on the other foot. It'd be pretty funny if TKF or Quasi made a DLX rip, like making fun of the Real oval graphic. But then those guys would be stuck with a horrible logo board.

They wouldn't have the balls to rip a gonz graphic

That'd be like a lose lose situation. DLX knows their position and they played it. Quasi has only been around for like a couple of years or so where Anit Hero has been around forever. Quasi would bury themselves a grave if they did that.

Also isn't this a jab at that type graphics and not Quasi itself? I still think it's comedic and not offensive.

It's just a joke. Like the gay bird moment in the B3 video, or that pretentious self felatio in NYC video DIME did a few years ago.

No need to over think it. Just laugh and move on...

Lost a lot of respect for DLX with this. If those other brands were kooking it like Powell was when World was mocking them then this would be funny. BUT those brands are doing the opposite and DLX is looking like the out-of-touch dinosaur Powell once was.

is this the first antihero series you've ever seen?

Nope. I've generally supported AH. This just looks like AH is being lame old dudes.

Well at least you aren't being dramatic about a skateboard graphic.

Only thing out of touch here is you and your sense of humour

At this point, Quasi is a flash in the pan that hasn't proven its longevity. DLX has been around much longer and looks to be around for much longer. Only time will tell what happens in the long run but I don't think Anti-Hero has made themselves look like out-of-touch old dudes quite yet, esp. since there's sponsor overlap with Vans and other teams.

world poking fun at powell was cool because it was punching up. whether or not quasi and 18 say it's cool, i for one don't think it is. dlx art almost always sucks and this is just a ploy to bite disguised as a joke.

Damn some of y'all are takin this way too seriously. The boards are pretty funny and I like quasi quite a bit.

I found this hilarious too because I thought it was real until I read the caption. Michael Sieben is the man.

how is it not funny that they're making fun of trends in graphics? even quasi fucks with it. you guys are weird

Would have been funnier if they did this for FA and Hockey.

Yeah it's weird they didn't lampoon FA/Hockey. To me that would've been a little more clever because of how in your face the entire FA aesthetic and their fanbase is. They probably would've got a bigger reaction too. But whatever, go for the low hanging fruit I suppose.

I support all those brands and I'm not offended in the least by the series, but I also don't get it either. Totally missed the mark on me. Not sure what the intended result was.

It's because Quasi graphics are this lazy pseudo-art that everyone thinks is so great because they have a good team. Although the name is "Quasi" so maybe that's intentional?

Edit: To clarify my point, Quasi has some of the most pretentious art direction and the whole Anti-Hero theme seems to be basically the opposite so it makes sense they would put out these boards.

shit_for_brains · « **Reply #54 on:** July 06, 2016, 02:31:06 PM »

I bet if they did it with FA graphics Dill would talk about how it doesn't bother him for at least a week.
