Pros names spelled wrong on boards.

Has there been a case of someone getting their name spelled wrong on a pro board. If there is that would be hillarious.

Damien Carabajal maybe?

this is Garry "Ganimal" Nowlan - unfortunately the site that had heaps better photos of him is no longer running properly.



He was one of the best skaters in Oz and had a few pro boards but his name was never spelled correctly, I don't think it's ever been spelled correctly in a magazine or on a website.

They either miss out on one of the r's in Garry or they change his last name to Nolan. Pretty wild to have multiple pro boards on the wall and none of them have your name spelt correctly haha.

Garry's a legend.

EDIT: found a pic. Sure enough… they blew it.

in his recent chromeball ceasar singh notes he had a planet earth board that got his name wrong. dunno which and how, CCS catalog images and scans thereof are too small

that Juhbontay deck was very intentional, at least.

in the xyz vid friends section they spell tom penny's name wrong, which is particularly funny as there really aren't many easier names for a - presumably anglophone - editor to spell.

Not a board, but AVE's first ever photo in a magazine, in a Channel One ad, had his named misspelled as VanEngland.
