Logos make or break a board. DK boards have been popping up in the What's your favorite board right now thread, and that logo is pretty fuggin cool. It got me thinking about all of the great ones (past or present) that make you go "ohhhhhh yeahhhhh":

Christenson's skull
T+C
Skip Frye
Ward Coffey
Surf Prescriptions (he's got a subtle white backdrop behind his script that looks really sick on color)
DK

This isn't even scratching the surface. What else??? View attachment 138727

"negative fuks given"

When stated publicly, this typically indicates that the author is in fact, a poser.

Yessir. Winner!
Mark is a good friend and I've bought many of his shapes over the years. Love his boards.
He is an old school Santa Cruz sort of backyard shaper but he started out with Pearson Arrow and one other one that I don't recall the name of but went out on his own after that and was quite successful for a long time.
The photo was from a surf contest in Newport back in 2006 and I was surprised to see a guy riding one of his boards down here so I had to take a snap of it to send him.
You are correct. He hung it up some time ago and works in some kind of water management job now and seems to really like it.
Glad to see you know who it is and appreciate his crafts.
We probably have some other friends in common. :cheers:
