The girl in the California Girls Skateboards logo is Courtney Watkins, a young model hailing from the Bay Area in California. The original photograph was taken in Malibu during 2005, a full 4 years before California Girls Skateboards began. Originally, the image was just used as a test for the concept of a bikini-silhouette in the logo. However, the test turned out so good, instead of photographing a new model, I decided to just contact Courtney and get her permission to use it. Courtney agreed and became the silhouette for California Girls Skateboards.
This deck features the logo of Courtney, superimposed over the natural woodgrain of the deck. The look creates a unique blend between the graphic and the deck. We highly recommend this one for an unusual graphic design.
