Header Mascott challenge contest $40

I need a cool mascott "bodyboarding" for my header

I want the art in vector

The header size can be found here though and the name of the site will be

http://demo.sticklertechno.com/thebody/

we can go far to the right until you see the buttons but it must match up

justbodyboarding.com will be the name of the site.

so a cool mascot on a bodyboard preferably in a position like the figure here but at more vertical angle with the nose of the board down

I look forward to choosing a winner and if I see another good one I can use it on another site. so maybe two winners
thanks

 

the nose of the board should be down, like it was falling?

 

full body like the image mentioned, character best. just keep body how it is then and i can adjust later. will pay via paypal.

 

Ariestoteles sent me this. I like the text if itwas more glossy web 2.0 style. I dont like the mascot

 

the mascot could just be holding a bodyboard next to him if its too hard to show him riding

 

Here's my try, let me hear from you.

 

sorry kate, also that is a surfboard

 

I will work on an entry. Are you looking for a cartoon style mascot? Or something more realistic looking ?

 

Mascot is vector and fully scalable, 100% original work.

Here it is with the header:

 

Allright, here is my try at it. it is vector and can make any changes.

 

more cartoonish

 

nice but he is holding a surfboard, not a bodyboard

 

My try:

 

Thanks for the feedback... will post in a while

 

ok, I will update my boarder and change the face to be more cartoonish.
Here is my update.

 

Here's mine:

 

A4hire, your rider is good, but i dont like teh posistion, but text not soo good.
Ariestoteles, your text is great, rider not so good.

Maybe you guys can put the rider in the position above.

a cool character would be good, it doesn't have to be human, sharper image than the one i posted above though.

Thanks
