I for one appreciate Michael Fk's lack of caring what everyone says about him and his free time that he uses to provide images of possible sick waves. That second link is hilarious and great that he has an open imagination and isn't afraid to hold it back.
Shawn's just stoked out of his mind. He's always wanting to try new things and share his videos. He's young and runs his mouth and says some dumb crap a lot but we all did. Let him babble on about nothing and ride what he wants and let Michael Fk creep us out with his crazy imagination. It's great entertainment.

09-04-2009, 06:29 PM
ok, fla is gone, and so is jp, but i like the double logo. why not?
hmmm i don't know. maybe it's just the font. if it's the regular shortbus logo and font then it'll probably look good. i know the two zap logos look sick.
Joey Peters
09-04-2009, 06:44 PM
yes, they will be proportional. and its the regular shortbus logo. also what color bottom should i get, purple?
Shawn Kenny
09-04-2009, 06:44 PM

whatever you like. it would look good but won't you get bored with it since you had a carbon/purple board before?
Shawn Kenny
09-04-2009, 06:59 PM
purples not gonna end up like that just get the standard black/white one
Joey Peters
09-04-2009, 07:26 PM
black and white is boring
hey mang, my board has nothing but white/black. its classy
Shawn Kenny
09-04-2009, 07:28 PM
that purple is gonna be very dull and almost black
Joey Peters
09-04-2009, 07:31 PM
black and white is actually really sick, but its just not me, im a colorful person *insert gay joke here*
Joey Peters
09-04-2009, 07:32 PM
maybe change the purple to baby blue? or a different color every letter or something
Michael Fk
09-04-2009, 07:54 PM
Thanks Steve.
To be honest I don't give a shit what S:Kenny does and I'm sure he's a cool kid and a good skimmer. I was being an asshole to and joining the bandwagon anyways. George Bush, I'm 16. I fuck up a lot more than most people here and I'll own up to it. I know I'm pumped to see Kenny's vids and I have one bookmarked from way back that I watch every now and then. I'll apologize to George Bush (Cam I think your name is) for being pissy too. I can say I get out of hand and I guess you guys getting on me for it at least helps me.
Plain enough, I don't want shit with any of you when I see you or skim with ya so if I'm being an asshole call me out on it. I won't fight ya either because I'm skinny and tall and have no experience fighting anyways.

Dude don't just start posting a ton of videos because one guy on skim online talked about you posting videos.
But by all means if you have good footage make a vid because I want to see that shit

My lame attempt on Paint:
1 inch thick fish from square. It'll be a backup/fun board if I still have my current square or another main board.

compared to some of their older boards the art actually looks pretty nice. the logo still looks horrible though, they should keep working on that...

ghostsushi
09-07-2009, 09:24 PM
they should just stop making boards for a living. we've got enough little kookie brands trying to crack into the big leagues, and they don't seem to be doing anything different or worth reinventing the wheel for.
Nigmo
09-07-2009, 09:54 PM
Why would you settle for such a horrible logo on your board??? Sooo 1/2 assed.. Maybe the shape is good though...???...
Shortbus Skims(Drop the Skims or skimboards) Take a look at a lands end skimboard. They have the right idea, a clean logo with proper placement (Some LES, not so much). Go through all that time shaping a board and then put a kook logo downloaded off the computer??? Object is to be original, but with your own logo or design (if that makes any sense). Everyone wants a clean board. Even the grape guy in the outline http://www.skimcity.com/store/product.php?productid=29002&cat=3550&page=1 (<------this board) is not clean looking in my opinion.
Also, Apex needs to start glassing their logo stickers in, another opinion of mine while im going nuts. Bring your wares up to the industry standard if you want to compete. Sooo much more to be said, but i cannot compose thoughts well because i dont care that much. fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

09-08-2009, 11:10 AM
Do they fall off or something?
my guess is yes. my brothers apex the logo is literally a sticker on top of the glass.

yeah the textured deck ones will fall off eventually but my glossy board's logo seems like it'll stay on for a while.
Joey Peters
09-08-2009, 11:58 AM
i think that shortbus should drop the "skims" part, personally i feel that its sounds and looks out of place. and yes i think the logo needs some work, such as colors and stuff

none of the logos should come off. yes, it is a sticker. so what, wanna fight about it? but, it has a very fine clear coat over it to keep the weight of the board down. any other problems you have with your logos, please shoot arne an e-mail.

that's definitely possible. like i said, i got it used. it was in good condition and had a solid price, so i was pretty pleased with the deal as this is my first board. for all i know it could be 10 years old. as long as it works i could care less!

The backpad was supposed to be the opposite colors. Black with Teal F's but a certain website doesn't update their pictures so I got that backpad. It looks much cleaner on my design with the pad that way but IMO still looks sick. I don't know know why the full arch should be higher though... kinda defeats the purpose of the full arch ;). What would you guys have done with the pads? It looks really nice in person lol.

i personally would have put the arch all the way to the nose instead of the tail, chance of you ever needing it that close to the tail is more slim than needing it at the nose, which if you ever do a single shuv in the barrel and your back foot hits it wrong you probably will fall

I think you have a higher chance of falling if you come down on the nose than the tail. Any weight on the nose when you coming down a wave would almost everytime = falling.

That is true but when I can get barreled and shuv in it....... That will be the day! I'm not as pro as Chris so If I landed up there, I'd probably bust ass anyway. However, my foot lands above the backpad a lot so it does help me with dropping and guiding my foot back to the backpad when I need to shift it. It's an aesthetic vs. functionality problem, as David said. I know Exile took the EXTRA time to make it how I wanted it so I'd rather not cover it up. I already have to wax over the logo design on the left rail *cough* :rolleyes: alex *cough* lol

for next time, especially on a black board. trace around the pad placement where you want them before you stick them, then sand the parts that are inside the trace. You will get a much cleaner look.

yup. first you lay on a coat of white, then you lay on a coat of whatever color your logos are...the arrows are removable so you can do them seperately, wait for them to dry and replace them. I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone do it yet. Pretty simple.

hey Dee dee dee,
he said "ridden that beach hard yet" because he was alluding to your statement comparing your new skimboard to a girl.
ride that beach hard refers to having sexy time with a lucky young lady (bitch, beech, beach) (you skim on a beach?)
