Spray design for my new shortboard

Postby surfer16 » Fri Aug 04, 2006 3:45 am

I'm getting a shortboard shaped by JP (local shaper). He said he'd put a spray job on for 20-30 quid, which I think is awesome, much better than a blank board. Basically I can have whatever I want, i'm finding it hard to think of what sort of design i'd like - anyone got any suggestions?
any pictures of nice shortboards that I could nick the design from?
thanks

Look at my post sweet board in shorboard section its Gerry Lopez looks kinda cool and you could change it if you wanted. If you could put anything it would be sweet if you put something crazy like a dragon and everyone would be like woah how did you get a dragon on your board out in the line-up.

You should look on the Lost Surfboards website. They have some of the nicest artwork.
JP has a load of boards with different artwork, im suprised he didn't sell you one from his showroom. The guy who does the artwork does a pretty decent job I think, from what I have seen.

There's some cracking artwork on most of JP's boards, definitely worth getting.

Not too sure about this one, quite 'different' artwork for a board...

Out of interest, how much roughly does JP charge to shape a shortboard?

Yeah I would of baught one from the showroom but they didn't have the exact size and shape I was after. There were definitely some cool designs there but I just want to make sure my design is unique, as in a wont see the same sort of design next time I go down langland, as loads of the langland boys ride JP boards.

Not really into the lost designs..they look abit naff..I don't want skulls and flames ect I just a nice spray job.
