  5. Jeff Parker says:

    I like #3

  6. Ephraim Udarbe III says:

    Number 2 for me!!

  7. number 3, 4 and 7 were the first that I saw and I thought was cool.

  8. Zach Drost says:

    i think ill have to go with 1 or 2 ( 2 is my fav)

  9. cdn_bobber says:

  10. Carl says:

    What, no green? Bummer. Gotta vote for black.

  11. Claudio says:

  12. Damian says:

    I’m liking classic black #3

  13. Trace says:

    Deck 2!

  14. Kimberl y J says:

    I’d have to say #4. Definately #4.

  15. TEH says:

    make 4 more! and issue 1 every month. know it`s feb. now.. but you can do 2 for christmas..

  16. tash says:

    defs nombre 4. or maybe nombre 1.

  17. jEr says:

    #3 let us see some of these in popcicle!

  18. nocomply says:

    #7….

  19. star says:

    Torn between #2 and #4..hmmm….they are both rad!!

  20. Justin Carlson says:

    I think # 3 is the coolest.

  21. Alanna says:

    ……..or # 3

  22. KabitoJak says:

    #3 I’m liking the deep yellow on black.

  23. JRF says:

    Powell should just run them all!

  24. polock says:

    I would say 3 or 7. How about forget these reissues since there have been so many already and reissue the barnyard popsickle that was done in 93 or whenever Mike V. went back to Powell.

  25. Wyatt Auger says:

    #3 or #6, it is hard there all sweet

  26. shvitz says:

    #2, definitely!

  27. Brad J says:

    Gotta go with 3!

  28. justin whittaker says:

    # 4 is real sweet

  29. bill says:

    number 2!!!!!!

  30. ed says:

    #2 no doubt!!

  31. Pat Toulouse says:

    Definitively #3 (black)
    then #1 & #7

  32. Steve says:

    3 or 8. Want a few of them though, some to ride, some to hang.

  33. Øks says:

    #2 or #8 – looks most like the ones i had……

  34. luke says:

    number 2 and 3 rule.

    But any which one could work.

  35. Scott says:

    Number 4!

  36. Fabo says:

    #3 all the way

  37. Buarey says:

    I’ll vote for number 8.
    Then #7
    And no. #3
    But #8 is my first choice

  38. mc says:

    I like the back and grey one. Of course I’d be riding it and not hanging it on my wall, but it has an elegance and dignity and makes the graphic pop. Number two is also cool and has a hint of classic Ray Bones Powell Peralta going for it.

  39. Alex says:

    number 8!!!

  40. Tom says:

    #7 and #3

  41. donger says:

    number 2 or 3. both are cool.

  42. Radical mike says:

    Number 3!

  43. magaldi says:

    #3 all the way!

  44. randy says:

    number 7 by far the best

  45. Seth says:

    Numero dos

  46. LordOzz says:

    Go with Number 3..

  47. Christine says:

    Number 8!

  48. Tim says:

    NUmber 2 is pretty sweet but number 8 remids me of the old powell peralta colors

  49. Mark says:

    My choices would be #’s 2 & 8. Those are my favorite.
    Peace

  50. Jason says:

    Number 3

  51. Sloppy Joe says:

    YELLOW BABY YELLOW!!!

  52. nick spesiia says:

    #5 is awesome

  53. Bob Menefee says:

    Number TWO…HOWEVER, if you want to do this , the real re-issue’s background SHOULD BE yellow and black with the black trim (like the trim on #6).

  54. Rob says:

    3 and 7 looked awesome!

  55. kris says:

    number 4

  56. antoinucci says:

    6

  57. Steve says:

    #8 all the way.

  58. Number 3 is the perfect Match for Mike

  59. Mike todd says:

    Three. Hands down.

    6 really stands out and is loud too. Would look great on a wall.

  60. 1-3-7 are the best ones …the elephant seems with a lot more light
    in the others is to dark and you miss the details.
    number 6 has got different eyes, its cool thougt

  61. Mort says:

    #2. It’ll keep you safe during night skating too.

  62. lucian says:

    number 2 stands out the best.

  63. Logan R. says:

    id say 6 or 8 look the best

  64. anon says:

    3 and 7

  65. dipteeth says:

    i like #4 and #7

  66. Rich Sayers says:

    # 6 is my favorite – colorful and elephant stands out well
    # 2 my 2nd choice – best eye-popping color,elephant looks OK on it.

  67. Lil' Billy says:

    #2

  68. 0pen3ar says:

    #3 then #2 for the 80′s style

  69. Tom says:

    7 no doubt!

  70. Adrian says:

    Number 1. Then 3 or 4.

  71. Ken Davis says:

    I’d have to go for #2

  72. bryan says:

    #3, then #2 and maybe #7. I’d also like to see a new OG inspired shape, similar to the old school shape but updated with modern dimensions. A green or purple one might be nice too.

  73. oscar says:

    #4 is perfect for the mike´s style

  74. dcone says:

    #3 by far, the colors just bang on the black background

  75. Santiago says:

    I would like 1 and 3.
    Screenprinted ??
    I would like buy one.

    Salúd.

  76. adrian says:

    The 6 the best

  77. mike holden says:

    #6 is my preference

  78. [...] recently sent Mike V eight different colourway proofs of his re-issue Powell-Peralta Elephant deck – but he [...]

  79. Jon says:

    # 6 pops out the most to me, but if it’s pink I would say no. # 3 looks to similar to the current graphic. I pick # 7 if #6 is Pink

  80. keith says:

    #4 looks sick

  81. Sam Webb says:

    all these boards are sick, 1,2,4, or 6

  82. Paulo Fernando says:

    #3 ;)

  83. Tony Morrison says:

    first place 3
    second place 7
    Third place 6

  84. dude says:

    definitely # 7, that one looks way sicker than the rest. # 3 is also cool

  85. C.J. says:

    I like #5

  86. willie says:

    #2 is something wild

  87. huphtur says:

  88. Mmcg says:

    #3′s got my vote

  89. seedy says:

    The heck with that elephant, bring back World Industries Vallely Barnyard!!!
    X2!
    but in the meantime, I vote for #3

  90. Gaahl says:

    Number 2 for sure.

  91. Stanton says:

    number 2 but with a black border would be sick.

  92. [...] Powell Peralta is re-issuing Mike Vallely’s classic elephant graphic but are having a tough time deciding on a colorway. You can help by visiting their site and giving them your two cents.  Tell them what you think. [...]

  93. Madej says:

    for me number 3 is the best one

  94. Al D. says:

    Deck Colorway #3. That was the color that I had when I skated that deck as a kid.
    The colorway in the original ad would be sick too. Yellow with black detail.

  95. DanCo says:

    2 and 3

  96. sarah says:

    either #3 or #7

  97. [...] Powell is re-issuing Mike Vallely’s iconic elephant graphic but Mike is having a tough time choosing which colorway to choose. Check the graphics and let Mike know in the comments of HIS site. [...]

    7,4,3

  103. stivason says:

    1, 3 and 6 definitely.

  104. ArmstrongD says:

    Without a doubt #2 is ther best.

  105. Cieslak says:

    3 and 4

  106. Josh says:

    #’s 7, 8, 3

  107. Chris says:

    #7 – closest to an og colorway. #8 looks great also-

  108. ruddy says:

    the black one is awsome..

  109. Jeremy Krause says:

    #3 Is the best

  110. waldo says:

    7 is gnarly .

  111. Freddie says:

    I think number 8. It gives the old powell feel to the board but number 3 looks so dope too in the black

  112. Dave says:

    what up Mike, I say #3…

  113. Bryan says:

    What’s up Mike? Hope all is going well for you. Shred on man.
    #3 all the way

  114. Craig Sullivan says:

    I choose #2 because it really stands out!

  115. number 3 !!!! \o/ saudações brasileiras do rio de janeiro !!! mike is incredible !!! OUO !!!!

  116. austin says:

    Although I am very fond of #3 … I am going to have to go with #1.

  117. Andre says:

    I just received mine in the mail yesterday. First colourway is like #3 silver with blue elephant but red Vallely like #7. This Powell Perelta release out beats the Classic version and is a must have for any collector that can’t afford the original. The graffic is flawless and only has slight differences from the original. Mainly the color of the Powell Perelta letters and the word reissue. Find it and buy yours for sure. I Love it.
