Anyone else like simple top sheet graphics as much as I do?

I love skis with some simple graphics. They are modest, but still look dope as hell when you're riding round.

Some of my favorites:

I love any ski with clear topsheets, not like a a veneer, I mean an actual just clear coat over the top of the ski. I think its really interesting to see all of the layers and be able to understand what the actual ski is made of and how it works.

The surface blanks are awesome! Ive always thought being able to see the wood was dope. Plus they are way cheaper

Joystick These look on point this year. Surface (14/15 and 15/16) and Faction are so clean too

Yup I had a pair. The topsheets weren't as simple as some posted above but still such awesome skis.

And like a couple guys already said surface and joystick are killing it right now.

Faction's this year look good but next years looks too similar imo. They could've at least done a different layout instead of just changing the colors.

However the Candides from a year or two ago are $$$

I love two types of graphics: Simple ones and ones that look like skate graphics, i.e the J creepers.

I feel the same. Nice graphics are a bonus. I kinda cringe when I see people buying a ski cos it "looks nice"

I prefer skis with busier/more artsy top sheets. I feel some put a lot of work into the top sheet of the skis and their creativity shows just how much they love skiing. Also gives you something to look at when sitting on the lift.

Very true graphics are so important that's the only factor that decides if im going to buy a ski or not, jk but for real the factions from two years ago are sick arent the line afterbangs all black this year to
