I was excited about the Wagyu. Now I am not.

Early contender for worst graphic of 2026.

Apologies to any GNU fans here, but they're all pretty hard on the eyes, aesthetically. Gives Never Summer something to think about 🙅🏻‍♂️.

Lib is much much closer to NS vibes than Gnu. Not a single modern lib graphic in that bunch that doesn't look to me like it couldn't easily be a NS board graphic. Even the Lib Rig base graphic looks weirdly like the NS Swift 'S'. Look at those Lib boards and then google NS snowboards and it s'gotta be the same guy doing both.

The Gnu seem to be more weirdly fun... brighter colors, odd cartoony ish, kind of more a Public Boards vibe.

The Wagyu actually a strong contender for the Big Nice Burgundy Snowboard Award... I might even say, the leader.

Without the giant black G cutout on the base, Wagyu could look ok. BUT it looks more like porkchops to me.. and could use some cow portaits on the top. Head/horns and GMUU on the nose?

Apparently that's Austin Sweetin's "artwork". Kinda bummed to see the Rig getting the color block treatment. So far it has been the least bad/most minimalist Lib graphic.
