Personalising Your Snowboard: Decorating With Decals

When you hit the slopes, your snowboard isn’t just a piece of equipment—it’s an extension of your style and personality. One of the coolest ways to make your board stand out is by decorating it with decals. Whether you’re aiming for a sleek, minimalist look or a bold, eye-catching design, decals can transform your snowboard into a unique piece of art. Here’s how you can get started on personalizing your ride:

 

Choosing your decals

  • Decals come in a variety of designs, from classic patterns to funky graphics and everything in between. Choose decals that resonate with your personal style and interests.

  • Think about where you want to place your decals on the board. Some prefer a clean look with decals only on the bottom, while others cover the entire board for maximum impact.

 

Preparation

Before applying any decals, make sure your snowboard’s surface is clean and dry. Use a mild cleaner to remove any dirt or residue that could affect adhesion.

 

Application

  • Tape decal into desired position. One strip across the centre and 4 pieces in the corners. Do not remove front application tape or backing paper at this point.
  • Remove the top corners of tape and gently fold the decal in half down to the tape. Slowly peel the backing paper away from the decal until it is flat.
  • Cut backing paper in half with scissors, removing the top half.
  • Carefully fold the decal back to its extended position, holding at the top corners about 20mm above the surface of your board. Starting from the middle, hold the applicator card at a 45 degree angle to the strip of tape and firmly and methodically sweep it left and right, moving away from the middle strip of tape towards the top of the decal. Once the top half is stuck, remove the centre tape and repeat process for the bottom half.
  • Working from a top corner, slowly peel the application tape from the decal until it is completely removed. If the decal lifts at all, go back over the whole application firmly with the applicator card and try again.

Mix and Match

Get creative with layering decals to create a custom look. Overlapping smaller decals or combining different designs can add depth and complexity to your board's look.
