Modern Skis with Retro Graphics?

[HeluvaSkier]

What are some modern skis that have unique or retro top sheets? My quest to find a Rossignol 4S Replica (retro 4S topsheet on a modern 9X) has me wondering if there are other skis out there that are similarly unique. It would be cool to have a list of modern skis with "beer" topsheets, or other unique/retro graphics... So fire away ideas! This could be a cool way to discover skis that I didn't know existed...
Cheers,
Greg

Do Authier Vampires count as modern ?

Does plain wood topsheet count as retro ?

K2 has several of these iirc.

There was also a pseudo-chicken heart Dynastar

For skis with great wood veneer I would check out Big Wood Skis. Beautiful product.

Does the Rosi 4S topsheet count as a graphic? a flat color with a couple icons. Definitely retro. Simple.

I believe @FairToMiddlin has a pair of 4s modern retro skis hanging on his wall. Possibly he'd sell them.

Saw a Dynastar Legend 94 ski that has retro graphics. Though I'm not sure a ski ever actually looked that way.

Yes, I'm looking to sell my yellow Scott The Ski @ 165cm. Beautiful retro graphics. Fun, soft ski,89 waist.

^^^A picture helps!
The yellow ones are the good looking ones I hear.

This is kind of retro 80's yet modern.
Very good looking. I might buy it without caring how it skied. Until I skied it. But it's not in my demographic.

This is probably the oldest artwork on a ski.

The original artwork is a 15th century fresco in Slovenia.

the Kastle MX skis (the white ones at least) have quite similar simple overall graphics theme to the early 80s kastle National Team race skis

Expect a return for 2017.

Expect a return for 2017.

They're not dead?
What about plates?

I doubt bindings...but skis coming from that factory will return.
