When your main inspiration are Target graphic shirts from 2010. Oh, and spitfire.

The first boards were honestly kind of sick. Americana, Little rascals, sandlot, badnews bears, nostalgia. That would have been a sick direction. I think it would have worked for well for american boy Sheckler. But nah, lets quit Plan B to do Plan B at home.

Dang, i was really chomping at the bit to get one of Ryan Shecklers new pro models from his self owned board brand. These graphics are definitely the ONLY reason why i wouldnt get one. I'm devastated......

That Ed Hardy looking tiger one is absolutely atrocious.

I’m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and assume this is an ironic millennial thing. Great job Ryan.

isn't that spiral a spitfire graphic? Having skateboarding as a skateboard graphic is weak

They kinda remind me of the early Politic boards.

The spitfire swirl is fucking embarassing

OK, I THINK the tiger is supposed to be wearing some kind of samurai-esque helmet, but for the longest time I kept thinking "Why is that tiger wearing a cowboy hat?"

First boards were kinda cool surprisingly.
These, however :

New graphics are sick. definitely narrative changing

These just look like all the lazy and generic tattoos you see everyone has full sleeves of now.

I just wish I was back in 2001, riding blank minilogos.

Truly insane you use one of the most recognized logos in skateboarding on an unrelated skateboard product in this way. I would think Spitfire would be within their rights to take legal action here.

fucking awful

backspinflip · « **Reply #20 on:** May 25, 2022, 08:54:21 AM »

these graphics probably work in a department store or sports good store setting. Don't think shecks is aiming for some trendy deck brand.

For the record I think the first two graphics on woodgrain look better, a little bit. Still not something that jumps out at me. An 8-10 year old probably digs the lion or swirls though. I know what I think my kid would like
