Evisen, not on the list tho. I voted Hockey. I love Hockey graphics specially the Kevin Rodrigues ones. I also like Baker, GX1000, Heroin, Snack and Five Boro graphics sometimes.

Voted The Killing Floor but here are some honorable mentions:
There/Unity
Passport
Magenta
Krooked

Antihero & Real suck ass. DGK also. Used to absolutely love Toy Machine but they’ve been rather shit for years. Uninspired and too polished. Dunno if it’s because of all the computer shit Ed uses nowadays. Black Label is hit/miss. Some are really fucking good and some are quite fucking bad.

This would be my answer,  nostalgic and very clean

Metal is off to a good start, I even like their logo/team boards up on their site at the moment

Interesting poll, needs more options tho

Welcome isn’t core but I love their graphics. One of the few brands where I haven’t seen a single deck and went “eww, fuck”.

Contrast that with Polar, who will put out some amazing art then drop graphics that look like someone drew them while holding a crayon with their asshole.

the GOAT is always Krooked

but always love a AH, Palace, Polar, Hockey, and Pass~Port graphic usually too.

Someone should also add "your local skate shop" my childhood shop Pitcrew had really good ones in their heyday and even collabed with Krooked a few times

This KRod board is the one that made me vote Hockey.

I'm not surprised I'm the only Violet vote.

It's early.

I was going to vote TOA or Glue but I'm heavily compelled to vote earsnot.

Black and purple has almost always been my jam.

I back the earsnot too tho I dislike most of the styles from that era of NYC graffiti.

It's like from 99-2005 everyone was on some recycled shitty style then they bedazzled their throw ups with every 70s single colour embellishment they ever saw. In a book ...

Just a total mess.

A bunch of people are doing that with their pieces now. On some bunk ass 70s remival styles.

Broadway Elegant remival to the ole double bubble crayon trouble I can't draw 3d. 

3d that layers on the next letter like a 5 year old drew it. Puke puke puke.

Be yourself when you write....

I always wanted a pink 917. I just never had the chance.

Black Label was also instinctual. The label is the look to me. John is the beez knees.

It’s hard to pick just one.
It’s cool that some companies like Polar, Krooked, and Palace do some great graphics and also put out some of the worst graphics.
I liked Isle, and Passport graphics are solid all around.

Sour really needs to be on here so nobody can vote for it.

I think you wanted to say Jart, Blind, or Plan B

Nah, Sour wasn't on the list at the time.  Sour seems to have received a pass because the team and videos are absolute top tier.  But the graphics, with a few exceptions, ...

Yeah. Kevin Rodrigues usually gets the best ones. My favorite Hockey graphic is the Kadow Metal Mask one for the same reason; it’s from a movie I like… Demons (1985). I’ve always been hoping for more Italo Horror or Giallo references from Benny Maglinao, but that’s been it so far.

I voted Passport. Best range of graphics while staying consistent and fresh. I’m a big fan of the colors for the more whimsical, illustration graphics and the use of the bottom ply, which you almost never see other companies using brown, for the decorative graphics.

My other top picks are Krooked, Carpet, Polar, Girl, Chocolate, and Alien.

90% of magenta boards use a brown ply
