surfing brands?

Postby Tyler1892 » Wed Jun 15, 2005 1:28 am

Well I was watching fusion tv, and theres two brands icons I saw that Im not sure what they are. One is sort of a tribal looking design, he had the decal on his surfboard, I dont know who it was or the name of the brand but yeah, it was sort of tribal looking and was enclosed. The other one, is like 3 green shapes, there not really ovals but now squares either, and there all touching each others ends to form a triangular shape. THis was also on someone surf board, can anyone tell me which brands these are?

You need to stop worrying about the brands buddy. Thats whats hurting surfing the most, all the newbies who get in it because of brands or because its "cool". Do it for the love of the sport, not to be cool.

you got me totally wrong. Im not really into surfing that much, ive never even done it! Im actually more of a pickup truck and motocross kind of guy. I just see it on tv from time to time and am some what interested, I just thought the emblems looked cool and I wanted to see them again. but reguarding your statement about people that wear the brands, are those who do it just so other people see them? Why is it that I see all the pro surfers wearing nothing but the brands all over everything? and I know there payed to wear them so dont say that.

It could be an australian aborigany design or a new zealand maori design. try googling

"Native Australians Patterns" and "Maori Patternts"

and just check there art... i'm quite sure it will be one of these two.

I think Ginsters said it best with this ad:

the three squares that are not quite, nor are they ovals...sounds like an Al Merrick logo to me.
