Personalizing!

[Pigletpen]

When I get new skis, I sticker em up, paint n stencil em, and other wise make them mine.

I dont do this to make them look cool, even though fiddle faddle stickers are the raddest hotness out there. SO GREASY AS!

anyways.. i digress, I do it because I know theyre mine. So they dont get stolen.

It makes sense to me that a random pair of skis with no discernible markings will get stolen way before mine will.

I read about the dood that lost his brand new watchlifes, and I felt bad. So I thought maybe share this obvious wisdom with the world. It isnt like my boards couldnt be stolen, but at least if I see them, Ill know for sure.

Hope this saves some people from the dreaded ski theft.

ya, i generally spray paint somthing on my skis, although it's usually only about 1/2 as cool as i imagined beforehand and gets destroyed with use. why not, individuality is better than cookie cutter.

 

[Pigletpen]

fine, no one cares.

i hope all your skis get jacked!

 

[niels.]

why thats a terrible thing to say.

 

[Jr-o-c]

especially for a skiier to say that. now karma will come and some1 will jack your skis.

 

[Holte]

You know, I never thought of that. That's some pretty good advice.

 

[invader98]

ok evryone look for his skis and jack em hahaha jk he makes sense

 

[[~_~]]

I never sticker em. I like the graphics I pay for!

 

[Elijah.]

You buy skis just for their graphics? Gasp Tanaka!

 

[[~_~]]

Its not that I buy skis just for graphics, but I DONT buy skis for their graphics.

 

[Pigletpen]

i do.

but then fiddle faddle stickers make em better.

 

[Pigletpen]

(so they dont get stolen)

fiddle faddle stickers are like a ski lock!

If someone stole my skis it wouldnt be that easy to conceal, because i ride chronic wides but both of them are the left ski graphic and they have tiny burn indents on the back

i highly doubt anyones going to steal my ARWs.. what guy wants a giant nipple (of a man) on their ski? not saying a girl wouldnt steal, but yah

 

[sam_vicious]

i just put a couple of stickers on.

 

[Casey]

I just keep them on my feet, seems to work pretty well.

 

[eastAR5]

my T halls are custom now i did some serious work with a gold-marker last night

 

[doublexl]

i colored my foils all rasta and shit, theyre super sick!

 

[860]

I would do that but I wouldn't be able to come up with a good design

 

[Pigletpen]

thats what premade stickers are for!

 

[unchyll]

i tried spray painting my 04-05 publics like a year 2 summers ago cus the graphics are gay as hell but the paint just came off so now there are like marks of black spray paint everywere

they looked kinda like the silencers, kinda weird but yeah i also spray painted my boots but that was lame too

 

[Pigletpen]

you gotta primer the shit, so the paint has something to stick to.

i always put my name on the bottom of my skis in big, pretty writing. My Hawaiian name (Ka Noa) is stenciled on the nose of all of my surfboards On the nose of all of my surfboards my Hawaiian name (Ka Noa) is stenciled on in old english so its a habit for me to personalize my stuff.

But, i figured out that if my skis ever get jacked, it will be easier to see them from the runs. think about it, you can watch so many more pairs of skis go by by chillin under a lift, looking up.
