Who got new boards for the bash and who like me, couldn't afford a new board and stuck with a crappy one? So i've had to resort to pimping my rubbish one lol
I was tempted to spray it neon pink and put diamond studs all over it to give it the 'bling' look.
Found www.tattooboards.com which prints their designs or your own designs onto vinyl, it's the same used on airplanes so it's pretty tough. And it protects those nasty skiers from scratching the top of your board at the lift.
I thought what the heck as going to the bash so may as well do a bit of promo work (Dunx I want commission!)
Even got my forum name on it and a lil pic of a sheep, yes I'm sad, I know lol just gotta get a stomp pad now, maybe some studs?
Camera image is rubbish but it's like a Burgundy and Black.

| If you spray paint it, i think the paint ends up flaking off so bad idea! I'm sure someone on here tried that before! |

| Yeah that's what I thought, that's why I went for the Vinyl and I guess as it's the same stuff used on planes, it's unlikely to be peeling off unless someone slices it. |

Needs a 'http://' added to the start of the address between the tags, then it should work  |

Did realise what the problem was, the link isn't to an actual image, it's the webpage itself the image is located on. will change it. |

I know what you mean, I am precious about new boards etc for the first 3 weeks maybe, but i know that the inevitable will happen and it will get chipped/gauged etc so i stop caring... had my new signal park for about 6 weeks now and have already had to araldite the top sheet after i buggered it up using it as a shovel building booters in huddersfield! |

nahhhh, you don't need a stomp pad!!!
Just force your back foot against the inside of your back binding, or, ride the lift with both feet strapped in... thus keeping your board stomp pad free  |

Very good work my man. Studs is where it's at for stomp pads. The first time I dislocated my shoulder was from not having a stomp pad!
I have a heap of SCUK vinyl cut stickers that I'll bring out with me if I remember. I think they cost me personally about £3 each, happy to get rid of them for a couple of Euros a pop. |
