What do you do if your snowboard brand is famous for their almost completely white topsheets? Draw on them of course!
Last winter Korua gave over three of their boards to friend and long time collaborator Aaron Schwartz to get the full graphic treatment. Each board was illustrated by hand with a different theme: ‘Laax’ (their home resort), ‘turns’ (done whilst on tour in Japan) and quite possibly our favourite, the ‘spots’ board. This was created live at ISPO in Munich, with the artist asking passers by where their favourite place to ride was, the end result including over 100 resorts, each featuring its own typography.
These one-of-a-kind boards will all be going on sale on the Korua online shop at 5pm UK time next Monday, the 24th October. Think fast, as they probably won’t be round long.
