we love it
haha that's cool!
Nice, but if they don't put some contact information, like a phone or an url, we could think it's a fake...
Boring. most expected thought. Monkey yawns and falls asleep.

would seem more logical to me if the board was another way around. however good idea
Life is a joke. Laugh.
horrible
this kind of spec work makes canada's work look pathetic .......
First thought...
Very eye catching
I agree with pabloaotw, without any way to have the prospect contact the establishment the ad has no effectiveness. It's like a commercial for a car dealership with no phone number or address. People just shrug and walk away.

this wood board is kinda thin
even my girlfriend could break it without any karate skills
change a better one...um........how about a huge brick?
Loved it! I believe the reason that has no phone number is that is a sign in front of the academy. so, you don't wanna call if you are in front of it. Just get inside.
You could say its too simple. But is if so, why nobody thought about it before? That's why i think is genious.
Congrats, guys. Well done
Cool

It indeed is a first thought. But i like the idea on this media. A url or something 'wood' help, unless this is in front of the school itself

Hate advertising? Make better ads.
this is called "simple". Closely universal.
best ambient
i vouch this as award
will take bets.
:::J:::
awards for sure
they showed me a picture & i laughed
dignity has never been photographed
Awards? Maybe 15 years ago, but not today. This is a painfully obvious and familiar solution.
mm... ok .. :(

its ok. not award winning.

Idea is nice. Execution is ok. Choice of board could have been better.
nothing good about this.
Borring ... and done like 10.000 times before
Karate and breaking wood is very old, but if I ran into this board, it would catch my attention.
lol idea
once again all the Ads of the World talons come out. I think it's a good idea. It's an A-frame board that sits out front of the shop. Great, simple idea. Who cares if it's been done 10,000 times before, if it brings in customers it's doing it's job. This is a simple, effective idea that I think will pay off for the client.
Sorry, same idea.

ugh
it sucks when i see similar idea
:::J:::
Thx, that one is better. I have seen a similar broken bench ambient... but that was for a partner finder page (or something like that saying: we bring you closer).
keep it simple :)
i love it
I can't imagine the potential splinters
So simple, so great.
