Halloween Pirate's Chest BlackPak Giveaway

by YakAttack

About eight years ago, we made a custom Halloween-themed BlackPak. For that project, we used our CNC machine to cut out the face of a Jack-o'-lantern and special ordered orange material so the BlackPak would look like a carved pumpkin when illuminated from the inside. Even since that project, Halloween has always been fun around the factory.

In 2019, we purchased a large format printer to help with various projects, so we decided to put it to work and make another Halloween-themed BlackPak. Since we no longer had the orange material like the original, we opted for a similar theme but using a printed vinyl wrap.

This year we wanted to develop a design that was in line with the Halloween theme, but we did not want something corny. We wanted a custom BlackPak that a kayak angler would love to have and keep on their kayak for years to come. One of the first ideas that came to mind was a pirate chest. We are located in a coastal state, we spend most of our time on the water, and we sell a Jolly Roger flag accessory for our VISICarbon Pro, so the pirate theme was fitting. Our graphic designer took the concept and brought it to life. A few smoke bombs later, and the final result was truly out of this world.

How many pieces of candy do you think are in the BlackPak? The October Halloween BlackPak Contest will run from 10/1/2021 at 12:00 am to 11/1/2021 at 3:00 PM EST. To enter, guess how many pieces of candy you think are in the BlackPak. The person with the closest guess to the actual total will win the custom wrapped BlackPak, a VISICarbon Pro, and a Jolly Roger Flag. If more than one person guesses the exact quantity, then we will randomly select one winner. The winner will be announced on our Facebook and Instagram pages at 5 pm on 11/1. We will contact the winner directly via email.October Halloween BlackPak Contest
