Book Overview
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.

This is quite a cool book really, although like lots of graphics style books, they are best for browsing rather than reading. BOARD has a three sections each devoted to eithet the graphics of surfing, snowboarding and skate(boarding). There is a bit of text to each section, but mostly it is good quality colour photographs of the development of various board graphics through the years.There is a great section on the early Mambo designs and the skateboard section is particualy diverse. Anyway I'll shut up now and try not to sound too much like a literary critic because basically this isn't literature; its is graphics and would appeal to graphic designers as much as surfers etc. cool
