Hi all about to buy a new kiteboard, and have narrowed the graphics down to two options.

I can't decide!

Any suggestions

?



Cheers,

Andy

I'd go with the dragon scales, white straps. The girl is hot, but been done already.

WOW! EVERYTHING IN THIS THREAD IS L O U D ! ! !

Pretty cool designs.....all unfortunately no doubt mean whomever finds your board that next time she goes AWOL on the high seas, will be more inclined to keep their mucky paws on it...

Will white straps get dirty or fade over time ?

I also have the squared pattern on a Freeride which I love, but Cardboards are doing me up a custom design for my wife. Why not design your own? They don't charge any more for it. These boards are excellent with so much choice of size, style and graphics and priced really well. I take it BennyB12 hasn't riden a CB or do you just dislike all twintips? These boards are Aus made and quality, why buy anything else?

I have an FR with custom graphic and have looked through there graphic options and can say that they are very dated. The ones you chose are prime examples of this, go with their standard board design otherwise you wont be happy. I have put together plenty of cardboards boards this season at the shop and can say the standard graphic is a safe and good option.

I think people were being silly when they were knocking my choice of boards (or showing off that they knew what brand it was...!)

I have thought of designing my own, but that involves even more choice.

Basically I love orange, and both of these designs have that.

The top one looks great on it's own, but it is so busy I am leaning for the bottom one, which is brighter but more simple and with me and my bright blue kite on it will look good in pics.

Still not sure though... May have to sleep on it

hang on you posted on a forum , asking for suggestions . THose of us with cardboards gave our opinion and then you call us silly or showing off that we knew what brand you were buying ?


Fair enough .

If you want that design go for it, it's your board ffs . I have seen that design on boards and personally i think it looks ****e and makes me want to vomit . But you may not like the squared design which i do .

Put a massive c@ck on there for all i care , you have to live with it .

I think you should buy a windsurfer instead...They are pretty colours and will look great in pics....
