I can see the "symbolism" and name-representation of pretty much all the board companies emblems, all except for CWB. I cant quite make it out... make any sure sense of it... <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.wakeworld.com/WWImages/News/2007/cwblogo.gif" target="_blank">http://www.wakeworld.com/WWImages/News/2007/cwblogo.gif</a> <BR> <BR>The only thought i have is that the white area on the left looks like a "C" and the black squiggly in the middle kinda resembles a "w" and the white area on the right vaguely resembles a "B" <BR> <BR>INPUT anyone? <BR> <BR>(I like Hyperlite's emblem a lot with the symmetry and i like Ronix too, the backwards "R" resembles an "S" and a #1 combined to represent "square 1" but at the same time is an "R" for Ronix... pretty creative huh?.) <BR> <BR>(Feel free to open conversation about other emblems too)

dakid 10-16-2007 1:24 PM

it's obvious to me that it's a "c."

fly135 10-16-2007 2:17 PM

It's looks like a G to me. I don't see CWB in the logo at all.

allen 10-16-2007 2:45 PM

I don't think it says anything. Its more of a symbol, or a representation for the company. Not all emblems or symbols have the company name in them. Mercedes Benz and Chevy for instance are the same way. They say nothing about the company but we relate those emblems to those companies. <BR> <BR>al}

And.... CWB is the SHIZZ!!!

jpete190 10-16-2007 3:33 PM

CWB, Stands for "Connelly Wake Boards" <BR>Connelly builds Water skis. Connelly had to change it up when they got into the wakeboading field some years back. Due to the younger more hip crowd,(Demographics) they modified the name and their look but, it's the same company.

nwsjake10 10-16-2007 3:44 PM

okay, <BR>this is what i see..look at the emblem like this..the white area has a C and B, (not clear, but i think thats what they are) and i think the W is the middle bottom of the whole emblem in black..almost looks like an arrow pointing down..so it goes in order with the white C..then the arrow looking W, then the white B to the right..anyone..?

innov8 10-16-2007 3:47 PM

Hhaha where do you think Hyperlite came from and O'brien came from, they were both ski companies just like CWB.

joshugan 10-16-2007 4:40 PM

^^^ Ya, except that O'Brien doesn't hide behind anything.

kalenk 10-16-2007 4:47 PM

connelly wakeboards <BR> <BR>connelly is an OG in watersports, and damn did they make good waterskis

helix_rider 10-16-2007 5:16 PM

I always thought it was funny when you say the whole name out: <BR> <BR>Connelly Wake Board Board Co. <BR> <BR>Who puts the same word twice in their name...and right in a row! <BR> <BR>That said, the Marius is the next board I want <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

wakerider111 10-16-2007 6:34 PM

If CWB's symbol really is just that... a symbol, than i guess they are standing alone on that aspect...(for the wake co.s) which isn't necessarily a bad thing... makes them unique i guess. (i personally like to look into the possible meaning and art... maybe i am analyzing it too much. Oh well) <BR> <BR>Maybe a CWB rep will get on here and reveal it all for us <BR> <BR>till then i think i will side with a white "c" and "b" and a black "w"

10-16-2007 7:42 PM

i dont see any of that stuff maybe a double up line. thats it

kalenk 10-17-2007 7:18 AM

I think its more of a hidden 666

jason_ssr 10-17-2007 7:55 AM

Im pretty sure its a stick figure holding a gun to his head. <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>

absoluteboarder 10-17-2007 8:19 AM

.....lol jason thats funny!.....I can actually see where you got that from...good one!

wakerider111 10-17-2007 4:23 PM

I am about to give up my current theory for Jason G's... simply due to the fact that i am still laughing and snickering after writing this and attaching a modification. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/512139.jpg" alt="Upload">

wakerider111 10-17-2007 4:26 PM

...hopefully this thread doesn't ruin their symbol's reputation... <BR> <BR>... 'cause now i like it EVEN MORE... Bah Haa hahhahahahaha... whoooo... i need a tissue to wipe the tear from my eye...

pete_moss 10-17-2007 5:24 PM

I'm pretty sure it's just a "C" that stands for Connelly.

brody 10-17-2007 5:41 PM

I'm bored: <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/512190.gif" alt="Upload">

extremeisaac 10-17-2007 5:46 PM

this thread makes it obvious that the riding season is pretty much over

maestro 10-17-2007 6:40 PM

White C, skinny black W, black B (in the middle)... That's my take at least...

skeetersky13 10-18-2007 3:33 PM

why does it have to have cwb in it? why cant it just be a logo?

wakerider111 10-19-2007 10:27 AM

it doesnt have to have the name in it... it can be just a logo... it's just that all the other logos have something to do with the name. Hyperlite,(looks like "hy" either way you look at it... also there is another logo that is an HL) Obrien,(is an o and a w combined) Ronix (is an R and also a S and a 1 at the same time), Liquid Force (water drop of course) Gator ('gator eye or the often seen GB) Need i go on? <BR> <BR>I just "EXPECT" to see some kind of symbolism, thats all and was wondering if i was just looking at it wrong. <BR> <BR>If CWB is breaking from that stereotype than that is fine

wakerider111 10-19-2007 10:31 AM

Speaking of Obrien... i kinda wish they would bring back the old bubble logo... i kinda miss that, i thought it was kool. But i'd have to say the new one takes on more of an "extreme" look to match this "extreme" sport of ours.
