It doesnt take anything special, just wash the surface with alchohol or something.

as long as the stickers are half decent and the skis are clean u shouldn't have a problem. all the stickers I put on my skis are still there exept for a spiderman sticker. but it was cheap.

Yeah, don't put the paper stickers on skis. It looks terrible after 5 seconds.

I put a helly hanson sticker in my 1080 above the binding and it's starting to rip all over the place because of sharp edges & crosses... Something to be aware of I guess. I have a few line stickers and an oakley one that are all fine though.

1. Peel adhesive strip on back of surface.
2. Apply.
3. Look at it.

if you heat(not burn) the bottom of the sticker with a lighter they stick better.

I've been wondering for a while if you could take off the wax on the bases of some old skis and put stickers there on the base itself, then just wax over them. does anyone know if this works? (the bottoms on mine are plain and i need something cool under them)

Rekker, that's a really dumb idea. Unless you don't care about your bases... It would make skiing very uneven I believe.

Yeah, they're shit skis anyways, so i dont really care. and besides, the bases are so marked up anyways, another small flaw wouldnt really matter. definently rock skis for next year.

Well, in that case it sounds fine. Maybe you could write on your bases with a permanent marker. Something like 'Get off the jump fool!'... heh. That would be rad seeing that as someone busts a huge mute over your head.
