well you cant print them onto anything paper. you could try buying a sheet of sticky backed photo paper.. the stuff you use for making those gay little photo stickers.. cause that should have a gloss finish making it more water resistant. other than that you could pay a sign shop to cut a design out of vinyl, but that would be expensive and only one colour, or you could splash out a few hundy for a screenprinter to set up and then print a coupla stickers and then hate you for all the work they had to do to make two stickers or just dont put stickers on your skis. leave that for the snowboarders
