Poster: A snowHead
|
My cunning plan to get Mrs horizon back to skiing (after an ACL tear sustained on her fourth day ever on the slopes) succeeded. (I bought her a nice ski jacket, boots and skis). She is now comfortable on blue runs and, most importantly, enjoys sliding again.
She gets on well with her skis (Atomic C9, from Erica on here). However, they're second hand and the wrong colour for her (green). As any self-respecting woman knows, the wrong colour of skis can seriously impede your performance and enjoyment of skiing.
I was wondering if anyone knows about stickers that can cover the whole ski. I'm not sure I'm up to painting the things.
One thing. Don't say pink!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

horizon, are you quite sure? With a few ham-cube looking stickers those could look right tasty?

How about Fablon, or 'sticky backed plastic', as it was known on 'Blue Peter'?

Masque, thank you - no hurry here...
richmond, I haven't heard of it before. I'll have a look.
(Of course, at some point it will be new skis, but I would prefer getting her new skis once she steps up to the next level, say dealing well with red runs).

horizon, haven't heard of Fablon?!?! What would Valerie Singleton say? Have a look here, for example. Actually, I have doubts about whether it is sufficiently adhesive and robust to withstand the rigours of ski use.

horizon,
Just a thought but ....... it might actually be easier to change the colour of the curtains and cushions to match rather than the other way round.
