heres a few tips for stickering up your gear.

-nerver put two rival brands on the same item. such as oakley and smith

-make your stickers look sweet by putting half of them over the edge of your ski, board, etc and cut the other half off with an exacto nife.

-when your finnally done with you masturpiece, take a blowdryer and heat upp the stickers so the adhesive will actually melt to the object and the sticker wont come off in rain or annything and will be on there permanantly. 

go have fun and make some epic looking shi*t

i think u should only rock rival brand stickers if you own the 2 brands stuff. like i own EPs and AR6s so i rock armada and line stickers. but i would not rock a salomon sticker. just my opinion

and yes word. I agree with everything except the rivaling stickers one. I dont think you should tell us what kind of stickers to put on our skis, but the cutting in half thing is way dope i have to say. and the blow dryer thing is legit. Do what this man says

in my opinion, i wouldnt put stickers on my shit unless they are giving me stuff or helping me out in some way, other wise it is just like advertising a company for free?
but thats just what i think

You don't need a blow drying, just rub furiously with your hand/with paper from the sticker and it will get real hot and melt well.

Join the sticker cult, it's open, and then email companies or send out self addressed stamped envelopes, and you will get a shit-ton of sick stickers.

i prefer to put a sticker on, decal of course, then spray paint over it, then remove sticker....... much more permanant and allows for crazy layering of stickers....... everyone always asked where i got skis that were made that way
