Nice thoughts Kerry.
Having some new graphic decks, I think handpainted ones will always be over everyelse. Cause each deck is unique. And with a good laquer, the drawing won't be trashed (and I tried so much to trash my PoP deck on concrete, some littles scratch)

There not many companies that does Handdrawn graphic, I can name 3 (Piratenholz, Pop Deck and Soma), maybe in the futur we will see more of them, and maybe some "artist serie" as pop is doing wink

I have always prefered graphics. Berlinwood only sold blank decks when i got my first, so i used a 30x100mm sticker from a Danish skateshop as graphic. It was awesome, cus it would wear.

But i am sure there is a lot of people that feel the opposite way. Especially when it comes to exotics and splits.
So there will always be a market for decks without graphics.

I also think that there's often a big gap between the good graphics on fingerboards, so untill they reach the same standard as skateboards i don't think they can take over.

BerlinWood and Inexp realwear graphic wear like real skateboards.
I know Inexp is doing the same method to print as the real skatebords (heat transfert), I think BW use the same method.
Don't know the "new" nocomply way of doing it, old one was good print on a glued paper.
