Synopsis

This revised edition of the first and most complete book on board sports graphics -- from rarer, classic archival material to the latest trends -- includes exciting examples of recent board graphics. Surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding have produced a stunning array of imagery and some of the most influential graphics to emerge in the last 30 years. Board is a comprehensive survey of the best of board sports graphics, from rare, classic archive material to the latest trends. Top artists and art directors, such as Jim Phillips, Erik Brunetti, Todd Francis, Marc McKee and Scott Clum, explain the complex subcultures which have given rise to this art, and examine the close links between board sports and music, design, and fashion. Anarchic, funny, brutal, and beautiful, Board is a unique document of the visual expression of youth culture.
