Hey NS...

Just wondering what you all thought of my new skis.

 I designed the graphic on illustrator about 2 years ago, and I just made it happen. Pretty much it is justa large sticker; but the quality is great. Thus far I have nothing negative to say. The snow has not affected it nor crossing my skis. So gimme your opinions...

Those look like the JJs....why on earth would you cover up such a sick graphic?!

But, yeah, that's pretty sick that it worked. I'd be interested in how you did it...

That's right man... You can never stray far from your roots.

Note: They are not S7's they are in fact the new JJ's

Hey NS...

I am glad you liked the graphic. I am really happy with the way it turned out. I have created one of these in the past, and it held up wonderfully. If you you ll want I can upload pics of the previous graphic I have created. The damage is visible, but it has only been contributed from crossing skis and sliding rails.

If you want to know how it was made just p.m. me.

I'll be glad to help anybody and advise them in any way.

Stay Up

That was my initial design and it looked great, but just the accent of the Rastafari colors is better. I prefer simplicity, and I think it turned out really nice and clean.

Hey Guys...

A few of you requested I throw up a pic of my last design/graphic. As you can see; I made it slightly shorter (the text is cut off by the binding as well as the "adidas" inspired pot leaf), but it has held up great through all the winter conditions.

Naturally, there are some scratches and the edges have begun to peel. However, I don't think it such a big deal.

Here ya go:

Second one is sick too although I prefer the first.  Both are great though and no doubt future ones will be as good if not better than the first two.  Would certainly not mind a custom top sheet myself, just don't have the means to do it.

Yeah... that is what got me started making my own graphics. I jsut thought alot of the graphics created were played out or just not up to par.

In January I am going to invest in my own industrial printer... I will let you all know, and I will start taking orders. They will probably be around 75 Dollars. I don't think thats too steep.

I am working on a website now.

Sounds like a cool idea. I'd be interested for sure. Just out of interest, how much would a printer set you back?
