Sending in a custom topsheet for ON3P

I’ve seen on the ON3P website under the custom ski builder, it says how if you wanted another topsheet, you could send an email in to discuss it.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, creating my own topsheet on Adobe Photoshop, and sending it in for the homies over at ON3P to make into my own ski. If you end up seeing this Scott, I’d like to let you know that this would be ptetty damn awesome if you guys could make this happen. I wouldn’t send it and pay anytime soon, but when I get new skis this upcoming spring or summer.

One thing I do realize is that i would have to create something with a high resolution image, so when you guys print it out and put it on a ski, it won’t look all shitty and pixelated. I would also have to use some type of template. If someone could send me a template to work off of, that’d be great. Also, would I have to add my own ON3P logos and stuff, or would you guys do that after I just send you the plain topsheet design? Whatever I need to do, just let me know.

Sorry this is lengthy, and a thread, but I’m imagining your PM inbox is full. Thanks a ton!

From the worst topsheet contest rules from a while ago, but not much has changed I think:

- 150 DPI (standard for our printers, 300 DPI is nice, but unnecessary.)

- Make a huge canvas to start, size up. Our 191cm skis use a 33cm by 198cm topsheets, so make them BIG.

- High resolution is always better. We can work with low res somewhat, but the bigger the better.

- If it would be deleted from NSG, it cant go on the topsheet. We cannot be held accountable for distributing pornography, at least not yet.

- Keep in mind that the ski shape that you ideally want - thinner skis like park skis need thinner graphics (A Filthy Rich is 88mm underfoot, our biggest is 135mm) so plan your design appropriately so it doesnt fail when we put it on the ski.

You should be able to use the shapes on the ON3P website as a transparent layer in photoshop to see what will fit on the ski for your desired make/model etc....

Those made me so uncomfortable, especially in the stage of production we call "Finishing"

I feel like I was the only one who made it out of the whole topsheet “undisturbed”. No self timers or anything h for that photo shoot. It was like a 60s porno shoot in the living room.

When I come down to Portland one day, I’ll bring tasty Canadian beer for you folks.
Along with Brent, who re-rendered the topsheet for production quality
