Design the Modern Board: 2010 Competition
Calling all designer-boarders: Want to see your very own design on a powder-ready snowboard? Design Within Reach's Denver Studio invites you to participate in our 4th annual Design the Modern Board competition, sponsored by Never Summer Snowboards and benefiting SOS Outreach.
Graphic designers - both established and aspiring-- throughout the Rocky Mountain region and beyond are invited to submit an original modern snowboard design. The designs will be unveiled to the public for a final vote at the Studio on Saturday, April 3, 2010. The Best in Show graphic will be produced as a one-off snowboard by Never Summer Snowboards (www.neversummer.com) and given to the winner. The first and second runners up will receive a trophy of their graphics in the form of a snowboard top sheet film produced by Never Summer.
