Hey guys,

just throwing this out there to see how many of you board riders are interested in having custom airbrush and digital designs done on your boards. Looking to set something up local but thought id head to the source and find out if theres much interest there. Any feedback would be great!

Cheers!

Yep, i'll cover both top and bottom of boards, eventually go into doing kites as well, but i need a bit more research into that.

For digital prints it'll be a simple print, laminate and apply job. The designs are done through a signage program.

For airbrush they'll need to be preped first, sanded, basecoated, airbrushed, then cleared with a 2k finish.

Either way you get a great finish, its all just a matter of preferance.

Are you talking kite boards or windsurfers?
Cause the deks of windsurfers are covered in "deck grip".
Not a small job to sand off and reapply.

Somebody here a few months ago was asking about getting a custom job on the bottom of his windsurfer, forget who now.

Mainly Kite, surf, wake and snow, they present the better substrate to work with. However windsurf boards can definately be done, doing a design for the bottom of these boards will be no different to the others. The Deck grip on the top however will prove difficult, but it can be done! You could actually airbrush and seal over it.
