Plain white boardz
- Thread starter RattimusBeach

My last few orders were plain white. Started to add color since I think it helps resale value since they won't yellow.
Like no lams all white or just a plain white poly with usual lams?
I don’t color my hpsb’s. I don’t hold them long enough for them to yellow. If anytbing the buyers go “oh ho boy, that’s a white board!”
Hipster sticks are typically colored bc that’s the freshness.

I hate the yellowing. Even the newer epoxy they claim is much better and doesn't yellow nearly as bad still does. Vigilantly kept my boards out of the sun and heat as much as I could and after 3-years still noticeably yellow.
My newer Lib Tech's are supposed to have the foam or some part of the underlayer painted white so we'll see how they hold up. My oldest one is now 2-years old and is still pretty damn white. Past boards it was Year-3 when it really started to show.

Only reason I started adding simple solid color is all white boards will yellow in a few months to a couple years. Ugly IMO and hurts resale price
Dirty secret - apply the “cool” filter to all your ad photos. Takes away the extra yellow caused by poor lighting.
IRL nothing looks as yellow as the photo, unless it’s really old or the epoxy blotchy, and there is no hiding that.

Funny, I had to go much darker color on my last custom. I ordered stringlerless eps from Akila. Well, apparently it comes with a bright orange stripe down the center- which they did not mention until it was already cut. To cover it up, I chaned from mint green to a dark green. #waxmelter
my all white boards never seem to ding 
I usually get color on all hipster boards cause I know it will help resale;
I've been ordering some "maybe will work, maybe won't" boards and they're all white.

So true. White board, never a ding. Funky color work, immediate ding and hideous repair. Like clockwork.my all white boards never seem to ding

I believe we are saying “boards of color” now.
If the boar sucks it is usually in the shade and then you sell it white. If you love the board you ride it to the end and white attracts less sun allowing you to enjoy it longer.
But I always thought he had a pretty cool “MM” logo.
I like white boards.
Got tired of my keepers turning sh!t yellow after the summer/fall seasons.
