I've been eagerly waiting to see the winners of this contest which allowed just anyone to submit snowboard designs online. They apparently received over one thousand submissions and have just announced the winners. The winning boards look beautiful.

This is a great use of the web medium, to pull together a group of designers (or, really, anyone who wanted to give it a try) through a slick website and end up with a tangible product. I'm playing next year!

Amanda Erickson has been building web sites since '95. She has worked for several agencies, most recently as an Art Director at a now-defunct, dot.com behemoth.

Over the past year, she has revived her freelance business doing front-end graphic design, logo design, flash animation and print work. Someday she hopes to build things with her hands -- very cool things.

Amazing! These designs kick butt!

I fell in love with several of these designs. I wonder if they will ever see the back of a board.

It would be really interesting to see the worst designs as well. There's something classic about really bad design.

We must remember to announce this competition next year and ensure as many evolters submit entries as possible.

Great link, Amanda!

back of a board

I do think, Neoliminal, that the winning two designs *will* be printed on a board and the winners will each get one. I don't know if they will be available to the public though.
