GX1000

I know the post says current best graphics but older 917 graphics were pretty nice

skate graphics are the worst they've ever been

split between watered down nostalgia, reissues or might as well be reissues and the same old pinterest for men brown slacks bad film photography urban outfitters turntable garbage.

fa is far and away the best which shouldn't be but it works and at least is somewhat original and cohesive

i don't know if it can come up again something is going to really need to change.

Hottt take, but I kinda agree. All it takes is a glance through "Disposable" to be reminded.

I should also add the Monkman series from Colonialism skateboards are the only series I’d think about collecting.

Up there with Thiebaud's hanging klansman, though a painting in it's own right. That klansman graphic was like a bolt of lighting to my rural, isolated brain.

Hot Take, not really into clivers recent stuff.

The imagery has been a mash of “hot topic” current events and it just feels bland and forced to me. Good on him selling out every run tho

PL0P · « **Reply #163 on:** October 11, 2021, 06:55:43 AM »

Traffic, quasi, topx, palace and i like carpets art direction too. Probably my top five right there.
Shout out Mark the Shark, art beast and beast, beast.

Krooked, Baker, Hopps, GX1000, Quasi, There, Glue, Natural Koncepts, Coda Skateboards, 5boro, GGI SKATES, Sticks&Stones, Frog, UNITY

Just to name a few global and local brands whose graphics I'm feeling. The best? It's hard to say. Honestly, companies I like sometimes put out graphics I just don't relate to or don't like, but that's all good. All I do know is there are a lot of beautiful badass skate graphics being produced these days.

Some of my favorite decks released recently/somewhat recently:
PABLO - GX1000

JUSTIN HENRY - QUASI

JAHMAL WILLIAMS - HOPPS

Flower Packet Art - 5BORO

Sorry to belabor the point about FA's declining graphics, but man. This shit is one step removed from those Alien Workshop "Meaty the Dog" graphics. Not sure what's changed about their process/art direction over the past few years, but this brand is becoming unrecognizable to me.

Thatcher Hillegas crushing it yet again.

everything is kind of bad right now in my useless opinion. everyone is copying eacjother and they are all sucking at whatever they are trying to portray. it almost seems like things arent being made for skateboarders instead they are trying to outsource and become more attractive to the mall kids. i do like everything from baker boys tho especially the heroin graphics.
