Bigwavedave stickers!

So any interest in bigwavedave stickers? Joost (aka Joostio) runs Forbidden Graphics in Union Bay (250-702-3840) and has offered to make some BWD stickers at cost. He sent me some samples and they look great! They are vinyl and are blue/white/black and silver. I have given out some to a select few special people.

They come in two sizes. The larger size is about 20cm wide x 12cm high (8"x5") and is great for cars or sails. The price for this size is $5.

Here's a photo of the larger sticker on my van:

You can also get your bwd username under this large sticker or one of these sayings for $1 more ($6 total):
"It's all about the wind"
"Wind is good"
"If it doesn't blow it SUCKS!"

We can also get smaller stickers made (~10cmx6cm or 4"x2.5") that might work on helmets and boards etc. Price for the smaller ones would be $3. No extra text on the small ones.

So let me know if you want any stickers made, how many, what sizes (large or small) and if you want any text under the larger sticker.

The website will make about $1-3 per sticker sold. Thanks again to Joost for making them!

T-shirts, maybe in the future, sometime this winter hopefully and likely in black...any volunteers?

One? One???? Cummon, people, that will only do for a single vehicle. You gotta customize your sails/kite gear too, full quiver. Raise some BWD money. I'm up for 4, 'More Force 4' please, unless knowing whose vehicle it is leads to tire and sail slashing?

Sounds like just making a big run of them would be a whole lot easier than taking individual orders. Looks like you'll have no problem selling them, a long weekend at nitinat could blow through dozens (though that might have to wait for next summer).

I just want to get an estimate of the numbers so I'm not stuck with a bunch. Also the custom ones with sayings are user names are a little hard to predict :wink: So if anyone wants those they have to speak now. But yeah I'll get more made then ordered, but it would be nice to know approx numbers.

I have updated the numbers in the original post.

Dave, Weather permitting, we're heading back to Nitinat this Friday and I could take a bunch of stickers to sell, if you have some generic ones made up and ready.
btw, we'll take two too!
