Leo ♌︎ Tomasz Majewski
It's time for Leo to rule. With his mighty mane touched by the tail of the comet, he walks proudly. With his eyes laying on the prize, and strength coming within his claws. Keeping justice, he walks smoothly. One step at a time, he brings balance to the world. As a king to most, and just an animal to only a few.

As the third released graphic in the Alternative Longboards x Zodiac series, this natural-born leader leads the pack and intimidates other signs. Seeing this graphic for the first time made us wanna bow to His Majesty. Leo was not an easy task, but our next prophet outgrew our expectations. Meet the creator, Tomasz Majewski.

Tomasz collaborated with Adobe, Virgin Atlantic, Newsweek, Magazyn Pismo, New Scientist, Sinfonia Varsovia, Goodlooking Studio, Canal +, Netflix, and numerous book publications.
Wondering why Tomasz took upon himself such a demanding task of presenting this magnanimous sign?
Tomasz chose the Lion because its zodiacal characteristics embody his idea of skating. There is no place for capitulation and laying down the arms. It is a demanding discipline in which independence and persistence tare on a leading edge.
As zodiacal twins, Tomasz decided to face the Lion, pay respect to the king of animals by showing his majesty and grace.
Tomasz wanted the design to be noble and to motivate the riders to take up new challenges without fear. The inspiration for the portrait shot was classical portrait painting and the monumentality characteristic for Kings.
