You won't feel horribly out of date with last years JP but you might with a lot of brands.If it aint broke...Well done JP for their customer friendly approach, and no I'm not sponsored by anybody before you ask. ]]> Bill GENERAL DISCUSSION Tue, 11 Apr 2006 18:45:32 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,72#msg-72 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,72#msg-72 Fanatic GENERAL DISCUSSION Tue, 21 Mar 2006 21:10:20 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,61#msg-61 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,61#msg-61 whatshisname GENERAL DISCUSSION Sun, 19 Mar 2006 13:54:50 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,53#msg-53 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,53#msg-53
Mistrals on the other hand are too simple. They seem to have a tradition of poor graphics, only the '03 Joker is excluded, that was pretty cool looking. The first range of synchros (was it '03 or '04?) have got to be the ugliest looking boards ever (together with the Beast of the same year).

JP's are really getting boring, although 06's are better than 05's (which were actually the '04 graphics plus a stripe!). The '03 were by far the best!

Fanatics are ok, fresh this year but nothing exceptional. I like the fact that there is a strong brand identity in the designs without the boards looking identical.

Angulo AmiGU's have nice colors for '06, in fact all their ranges feature pretty fresh graphics.

The new Goyas are pretty simple, but this brings out the harmonic shape of the boards themselves. The pads help with the overall look.

RRD's simply rock, but that's what you expect from italian designers right? The wave cults are my favourites. The freeride & slalom boards have a more simplistic,"technical" look. I understand the concept but wouldn't buy any of them. Last years Spitfire was exceptional though. In fact the whole range was incredible.

Starboard can produce some neat designs, the flare & s-type in dram have a very sleek & high tech look. Maybe because the logo got smaller, that "starboard" font is ugly and totaly anti-windsurfing.

F2's new guerillas look nicer than last year, pretty bold and original. The rest of the range is average, with the exception of the missile.

Exocets have become a bit monotonus with all that blue, but I like their slalom boards.

Tiga tried the JP recipe (one look for all models) for '05-'06, but I find the result average.

AHD freeride & slaloms are way too simple to look good. The wave/freestyles are an improvement from the past though.

T1 this year dropped the minimalistic look and went for these crappy graphics - what a disapointment!

Drops are really neat with their contrasting colors (italian again!).

Sometimes it's better to have (almost) no graphics at all. The '02 F2 MP white is an absolut classic for me. The shapes speak for themselves! ]]> mits GENERAL DISCUSSION Thu, 16 Mar 2006 11:25:14 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,47#msg-47 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,47#msg-47 yoyo GENERAL DISCUSSION Thu, 16 Mar 2006 05:22:46 +0000 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,46#msg-46 http://forums.boardseekermag.com/read.php?3,32,46#msg-46
