Why Custom Surf Stickers Look So Good
Saltwater Proof
Made to handle the ocean, these surf stickers latch firmly throughout any exposure to saltwater and surfing conditions. They are ideal for surfers and brands alike, bringing clarity so your designs stay sharp through any session.
Sun Resistant
Made with UV-resistant materials, these surfboard stickers keep colors bold and vibrant through hours of sunlight. This allows your artwork or branding to stay sharp and recognizable through days on the water.
Custom Shapes
Each design can be cut to match the shape of your artwork, from clean logos to surf-related graphics. This gives you flexibility to create a unique yet personal surf sticker tailored to your style and identity.
Wave Your Style
Surfboard stickers are an easy way to showcase personality, brand, or identity right on your board. Designed for a variety of smooth surfaces, these stickers allow you to make a consistent look across boards, gear, and other accessories. Whether it's for personal style or brand recognition, they create a simple way to grab attention both in and out of water.

Vector Art
Vector art consists of lines and curves that are mathematically defined objects. When viewing art in key line mode you can see the points or vectors when connecting your lines and curves. They can also be seen when using the pen tool or editing the points along a path. Vector art is ideal for type and drawn shapes because they can be enlarged to any size while maintaining crisp outlines and details without sacrificing quality. The distance between the vectors is calculated mathematically and is not dependent upon resolution.
Raster Art
Raster images consist of colored squares, called pixels. They are created by combining a series of various colored pixels. Digital photographs are made up of pixels. If you view a raster image at 200% or more you are able to see the individual pixels that make up the image. Raster images are dependent upon resolution so image enlargement is limited by the individual size at which the file was created. If a file is produced at a size that is larger than its resolution will allow, the quality will decrease. Printing a low resolution file will result in pixelation. Individual pixels are large enough to be easily discernable. Increasing the resolution will not solve this problem if there are not enough pixels to begin with. The program will add more pixels based upon the estimation of their location and will then assign their neighboring pixels's color value. This may cause an image to look muddy.
If submitting these files, please follow the guidelines below:
- 100% scale (full size output) at 100 dpi
- 50% scale at 200 dpi or higher
- 25% scale at 300 dpi or higher
- 10% scale at 600-1200 dpi recommended
Design Services
If you are not able to provide us with a good quality image, we do have a vectorizing/recreating service available. Most logos or images can be recreated for as little as $15; however images with more detail are subject to quoting prior to vectorizing the image. Please contact a sales representative for more details.
This service needs to be paid for in advance and we will be happy to give you a copy of the vector file once it is complete.
