I deleted the following sentence since it seems pretty lapalician:

This article's title is misspelled. --Eequor 17:26, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Is the company logo based on Hokusai's Behind the Great Wave woodcut? They look awfully similar.--Metron4 18:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm sure it is. I've heard it from some designers of Quiksilver Europe.
Kelly Slater painted himself his surfboards during the early 90's, sometimes with an Hokusai-inspired Quiksilver logo, I'll link a photo as soon as I found one, you'll see this is obvious. Later, Slater's design has been used by the brand on boardshorts, t-shirts etc. And don't be so cynical about surfers, thank you--Maison mere des rumeurs 04:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
This is correct. Older logos (circa 1980s and 90's) mirror the Hokusai image much more accurately than the standard contemporary streamlined logo frequently displayed. Silver Edition has retained this retro image as a sort of nostalgic homage to its more mature target market. Rebecca needs to review surf culture history before she assumes the contrary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.205.230.20 (talk) 20:52, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
WILL SOMEONE PLEASE WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT ROXY WITH A LOGO? THANKSprom/kissingqueen 23:17, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
There is no mention of the company's origins. The Spanish wiki contains a good history section, which is lacking in the english version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.68.91.233 (talk) 23:46, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
I believe the naming of the Roxy product line does not come from an L.A. nightclub as reported in this article; CEO Bob McKnight named the Roxy line after his daughter, Roxy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.205.230.20 (talk) 20:37, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
"Bob McKnight" should not redirect to this. He is only mentioned in the sidebar. Completely pointless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.158.223.10 (talk) 06:04, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
