I agree that when the details are removed that inverted shots end up looking better. I have a lot more pics of him from that same day that Roy didn't post on the webpage that i can email to someone tonight if they want to mess around. This isn't a shot of billy (its actually Mike Hall) but its the right idea. You can barely see the skyway in the background of this one but it could definitely be layered in.

this is just a rough draft, but something to spark ideas.

ya.. thats a cool effect Amber.. would probably print nice too..

and 1 color would be very cost efficient to print..

i like it better in the two colors like that scott.
But... i think that a "new" image would be cool and if we're going to incorporate flexi into the slogan, we might as use something we can put "flexi" in. Even if you were to use my image in 2 tones and then add "flexi" on the bottom of the board it might work. Lets keep playing with ideas. i've got more pics at home of him so i'll go thru those and hopefully find something good.

Alright. Here's my last one.
I am hung up on the skyway, because it's a landmark.
And also want a kite in the shot, because it's kite boarding. :p

This will be my last submission. Just killing time playing poker and waiting for the wind to pick up.

Screw that!

I'd say just a t-shirt that says "Jayson & friends - Team Rider"

:)

Flexi should be sending him with a first class ticket. Hadlow is their #1 concern and to me, thats sad. Maybe another team will recruit him and give him the backing he needs to make a move to try to become a Professional Rider. Seems like throwing 1000$ to Billy to send him to a PKRA event should be automatic from a big sponser like Flexifoil.

I just think its as cool as hell that everyone pitched in so much and so quickly. Hopefully Jayson has enough to cover the trip by now..

i took photo of him from the flexifoilusa.com site.. added lines to the photo.. added shadow of the atom2 and got this as an idea..

could add skyway or something..

its similar to my fav kite shirt that extreme kites used to sell with kiter across the full front of the the tee.

anyone can use what i've done and add more.. please do.. i am far from a graphic designer..

I think you should use the quote that he has on the Flexifoil Team website...
"Don't believe anything you hear, half of what you see and all in youself!"

How about something like this?
Parker Airlines- Shred the Friendly Skies!

was that picture taken at Cypress? LOL

Yes, I believe its a shot of our missing newbie, shortly before losing his kite....
