Alternative Longboards x Zodiac

We are born with a sign. Stars overlooking our lives form maps, guiding us through voyages of lifetime. Each of us has its own emblem, proudly representing position of the Sun throughout the year.Since the ancient times it is believed each zodiac depicts our behaviourand having deep knowledge of the stars could forsee what is yet to come. And to this day they leave a special marking on our characters. But years ago who understood the planets, ruled the civilisations. On a dark night with clear sky we can admire the very same view our ancestors once did, and connect with the same paths our zodiacs travel for us each day.
May your plans and people you meet always be in favour of what you are looking for.

Because everyone is born under a lucky star.
 

Pisces

 
These two cute fish represent what is most desired in human beings. Compassion and understanding. Meeting Piscies is like watching the Sun finally peaking from behind the clouds. Although they require a very appropriate environment, they use their full potential to influence the others and fight with the tide. That is correct. You can go against the flow like no one else. You are destined to do so. Show others that life is anything but pain. Being delicate is no shame. The age of hard human shells is over - use your knowledge to teach the others. With your strenght, there is no need for reaching the shore.

I graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice and I am illustrating. I have been drawing since I was a child - back then I liked to draw scenes from fairy tales or imaginary worlds, today I portray a slightly unreal but contemporary reality and its motives: pop culture, everyday life, people. In this I like to balance between the real world and fantasy.

Inspiration

I chose the sign of Pisces because it's a dreamy and imaginative sign. It's associated with spirituality, empathy and deep emotionality. I see Pisces as a symbol of a delicate but deep connection with the Cosmos and ideas. I present them surrounded by imaginary planets and stars, floating in outer space.

The Flamingo longboard deck offers a durable construction of a lightweight wood core surrounded by hardwood laminates, fiberglass and a layer of carbon fiber for good vibration damping and a lively ride.Keep your trucks as loose as you like them for those extra deep carving turns and fearlessly cruise on bigger wheels thanks to the fat bottom base that extends outwards along the length of the board and slightly narrows at the front and back side edges for deep wheel wells.Thanks to the secondary reinforcement of ABS sidewalls on the nose, tail and wheel wells, as well as an additional layer of ABS impact protection on the tips, the Flamingo will make sure your fun is long-lasting and limitless.Paired with a top-mount truck mounting system, the Flamingo guarantees a stable ride with higher maneuverability and a more directboard control when riding.
