Alternative Longboards x Zodiac series 2020/2021
Behold the true Mayan calendar. Spectate as Sun is moving on four wheels and hits corners of our galaxy with the most accurate horoscope so far. The new series by Alternative Longboards brings you twelve zodiacs with guidance for modern living. Choose the one born with you, or the one meant for you.
The Zodiac series was born in collaboration with twelve extraordinary artists, which left pieces of their souls embodied into Alternative decks.
We are born with a sign. Stars overlooking our lives form maps, guiding us through voyages of a lifetime. Each of us has its own emblem, proudly representing the position of the Sun throughout the year. Since ancient times it is believed each zodiac depicts our behaviour and having deep knowledge of the stars could foresee what is yet to come. And to this day they leave a special marking on our characters.
But years ago who understood the planets, ruled the civilisations. On a dark night with a clear sky, we can admire the very same view our ancestors once did, and connect with the same paths our zodiacs travel for us each day. May your plans and the people you meet always be in favour of what you are looking for.
Because everyone is born under a lucky star.
