Custom snowboard design
Thursday, 21 January 2010 @ 14:26Jonathan Hull has posted pictures of his beautiful custom snowboard design. The detail makes the piece radiate with energy.
After a couple years remaining on the list of portfolio projects to accomplish, I’ve finally succeeded in finalizing a snowboard design and sent it to production. Between obligations to client work and a perfectionist block about making the prime design, the project crept along for some time. About a year ago I got involved playing with fermat spirals and checking out surfboard patterns (which I often find to be more interesting in their streamlined design than the cacophony that sometimes clutters snowboards). Unfortunately, by the time I got enjoying those patterns, it was well into January and paying projects took center stage well into spring. Obviously, I’m a bit late this year, but at least there’s still plenty of boardable weeks remaining in the season.”
I love them. Jon first showed these to me a year or more ago! Cool to see it, (and matching business cards) come to life finally.
i need to be better about visiting this site. wade, thanks for reposting. that’s a huge compliment! great to get feedback from everyone while i was working on the board and cards, makes a huge difference.
