Homemade Line Afterbang Graphics

So after a few years of enjoying my Afterbangs i decided the faded graphics needed to be redone. I sanded off the painted graphics and wood burned this design in. Its completely freehanded and aside from the amount of time it took i am stoked on how it turned out. hope you enjoy!

For sure! be prepared wood burning takes forever and put polyurethane over it so it seals it and protects it, good luck!

You should could probably make some cash from resurfacing afterbangs. I would pay for a pair of those.

I believe that you could make some pretty good money if you started selling skis like that.

If this design could be wood burned onto a pair of skis that would be so money.

Thanks for all the support! It took awhile so I'm planning to just enjoy them for awhile but I'd be open to doing some customs this summer if anyone's interested, it was super fun. And those other skis are dope!
