Artwork designed by Lёsha Pushkarёv. The second model I would like to dedicate to Poseidon, because Proteus was generally regarded as the son of this sea-god. Poseidon is one of the Twelve Olympians in ancient Greek religion and mythology, presiding over the sea, storms, earthquakes and horses. He was the protector of seafarers and the guardian of many Hellenic cities and colonies. In pre-Olympian Bronze Age Greece, Poseidon was venerated as a chief deity at Pylos and Thebes, with the cult title “earth shaker”.
It is a schematic portrait of the sea-god with his famous trident, made in a geometric style of circles and arcs that symbolize the sea element. The portrait seems to be reflected in the ever-changing, undulating water surface.
As with all Proteus boards, this design features the patented Proteus Adjustable Camber system, a guaranteed-premium board construction and a strategic, multi-directional shape.
