So i didnt have much to do for a few days last week.  so i took a can of white spraypaint and a sharpie paintpen to an old pair of skis.  Tell me what you think.

Holy shit, hang those on a wall where everyone is going to see them.  That is so amazingly sick, seriously.  The black and white is so fresh too.

Really man, you have talent.  I hope some ski companies see this, you should get hooked up with a smaller company or something.

its sad that in order to ride them you're gonna have to have bindings covering them up. i hate that. it looks so dope and unfortunately you only get the whole effect before mounting them. not that you're necessarily planning on riding them...

Mad nice of you to give them to your sis. If you do do that, def seal them real well. I'd hate to see that time go to waste. Otherwise hang them in your room or something. They're honestly a piece of art. I love them. Plus I like how it's just black and white.

Dude! Nice! There have been a lot of action sport companies looking for graphic designers. Save those for the portfolio... And a custom top sheet artist would be a sick career... maybe get your own thing going.
