So stoked to share that The Peregrine by Channel Island Surfboards is finally out!! Check it out on the CI website here. I feel so honored that Dane picked my graphic of the bird's head to use as the logo for the board. #purestoke!
Peregrine Concepts
When given the opportunity to concept and create professional surfer Dane Reynold's board graphic for his new Channel Island's pro model - The Peregrine, I was beyond hyped to say the very least. The culture and prestige that surrounds a professional athlete's release of a pro model and its respected graphic is industry known. The boards are actually getting made and prepared for the release of this new shape as we speak and I am stoked to say that my art work will be printed on each and every one! I submitted a couple of concepts and will hold off on showing you the final until its release but here are a couple of drawings I submitted.
For more about this surfboard model and an amazing video on Surfline that captures process and love that went into this shape - check out this awesome link!
