Suga,

That’s super interesting. Thank you. I just googled the sankofa bird and it looks like it is definitely something I should research. Thank you for the tip.

You might want to read about the sankofa bird. It is part of West African symbology and captures some of the same notions as the arrow in your logo.

I’ve viewed this post along with David Airey’s post countless times and this is the first time I’m noticing your initials in the arrow. I can really appreciate the thought process behind you logo as I start my logos off the same way. If you can offer some pointers for me it’d be much appreciated because I’m in such an unbelievable bind with this name of mine! I’m wary about using my initials(TB) because people might immediately think “tuberculosis”. Any tips?

Oh I don’t know what it means, maybe progression in the sport or something of that nature since it is a relatively new Nifty little logo, though. But your logo does have some different key elements so it doesn’t resemble theirs too much (i.e. less line weight, more emphasis on a “k”.) Nice design process, i’m designing one for myself currently, trying out a similar process.

Marien,

Thank you for stopping by. I had never noticed the Burton Snowboard logo before you commented. I had to look it up. I can definitely see a similar concept, but in the case of my logo, the arrow makes the k for my first name. I wonder what the arrow signifies in the Burton logo. Jumping your snowboard? Maybe I’d have a better idea if I knew anything about snowboarding.

Great looking logo! but is it too similar to the burton snowboard logo? Not trying to slander your logo, but something to consider.
