The Best Friend "REVERIE 2026

When I stare at this ski I don't even know how to explain what I'm looking at. I just know his artwork looks freakin’ incredible on these skis. Arthur Brouthers is a painter based in Charlotte, North Carolina. He pioneered an abstract fluid painting technique that creates these incredible cellular-looking separations using acrylic paint and chemical agents. The process is so unique he literally keeps it in a secret notebook, no one else knows how he does it. He's been called a pioneer of fluid painting and has exhibited internationally at Art Basel Switzerland, Sweden, and across the US. Seeing the ski in person, you're not sure if you're looking at a microscopic organism, a galaxy, an undersea ecosystem, or something from another dimension. The colors interact in ways that feel accidental and completely intentional at the same time. There's almost a metallic quality in some sections. Every time you’re riding the chair lift or standing in the lift line, you discover new details in the art, and even tinier details within those details. This artwork is truly like no other. We’re stoked to be putting this graphic on The Best Friend ski’s wide asymmetric pow surfboard shape. It really brings the art to life full scale, living up to the ski's energy. There are only 100 pairs made of this super Limited Edition pow ski, each hand-signed and numbered. Now’s the time to own a one-of-a-kind work of art built for the best pow days of your life. Watch his mesmerizing artwork here!
