try heating them up a bit after you stickem on
also, trim them so that theyre only on the very middle of the ski
avoid spots were you usually scrape your skis together

i've noticed that paper based stickers stick a lot better than plastic based stickers and chip less.

It's this thick, clear, adhesive plastic sheet that is just wide enough to cover the full topsheet of a narrow ski. It's made to protect topsheets for people who care. It's also good for protecting stickers.

You could just re-sticker whenever necessary.

yea true,... sometimes man some days your on somedays ur not.... depending on the temp and how sticky the rails are can make a big difference, and skiing hungover as fuck doesnt help being able to slide kinked rails at all either

Well usually I bring my sticks to school, and just ask the administration to borrow the laminating machine. Just run em right through and they should keep every sticker on there good and tight. Nah, im just messing around, but when i put my stickers on my lsat pair, they were paper backed and the stuck just fine. I just smacked em on real tight, and put them in the middle of the ski, no on the edge or anything, and it looks sweet and doesn't scratch off.

Clear packing tape is money for keeping stickers and pictures on.

just get a boatload of stickers from your sponsor, and replace as needed. you could just spray paint on a stencil....
