Any skis that have been made in the last 2 years that are as good looking as the 2011 Candide Pow.

Depends on your preference man. Everyone is going to love or hate different graphics. Figure out what type of ski you want first then have a look around at what catches your eye.

If they weren't a snowboard only company, I'd half expect those to be made by Flow. That looks like their entire lineup the last couple years hah

The very first Pro model for Eric Pollard they had those blue curly cues on them and he rode them in Yearbook.
The JJs with the japan rail system that were red/black were pretty awesome too.
Dale's Rossi scratches from the spring edit.

I am generally disappointed in all the graphics that are super minimalist, pretty much just a few colored squares and maybe a line or two, then the brand name. It sucks when these companies make a great ski but they put a lame top sheet on it.

I feel like they definitley put a lot of effort into designing and building a quality ski, so why half ass it on the graphics?

Any of the custom solid color top sheets from On3p are fucking nice. I have the dark green and they’re so clean

Because unless you faceplant into your skis you won't get a good look on any of the cluttered graphics. For example the minimalist series by pollard is perfect because you can see all the details even on pictures from far away.
