    So we've all seen a lot of the pros with drawings on their boards, but most recently a lot have drawings or words that appear to have been done by them with a sharpie or some other sort of marker/small paintbrush. I was wondering if any of you all knew about how they go about it/what they use/what the necessary steps are. Any help is great, thanks

    Most of the stuff I see is pretty rough, and done with just a sharpie. I don't get it... but all the cool kids are doing it.

    considering they are pros and go through boards like water i dont think they put a whole lot of thought into what and how thay go about putting #hashtags or clever quotes or whatever on their rip sticks. not giving a f*** is cool these days
