FAQ custom kiteboards

  1. How much does a custom design cost?

    Although every creation is handpainted and unique, varying the difficulty level for the graphic artist, the price stays the same for every project. € 495 includes the full board top and bottom graphic design and custom colored G10 fins if requested (color, size and type).

    Sending us your ideas for a project assessment (time to complete, graphic discussion) is completely free of charge!

  2. How are the designs made?

    Every design is 100% handpainted by the artist using the latest digital tools to assure a personal, yet modern result and ultimate versatility. Designs are 100% AI and photoshop free, never made by copying, working on or putting together already existing materials. In one sentence; everything is created from scratch! Discover the results in the Portfolio.

  3. What's your deadline?

    At the start of every project, a deadline is fixed depending on the difficulty of the particular design. Usually, it is set about two weeks from the agreement of the project.

  4. When applying for a custom board design, do I get a unique creation?

    Yes, absolutely! Every custom design indeed is, a custom design. If you're fond of some specific in-house design, the graphic elements can be reused or the full painting can be altered to match your wishes. Either way, the end result is always unique.

  5. Are the colors accurate once printed?

    Every artwork's digital colors are designed to remain in the range of any printers' color profile, thereby printing accurate colors. Find more details under Printed color accuracy.

  6. Do the colors stay bright over time on boards?

    Board manufacturing brands build-in and shield the graphic layer with an exterior layer, keeping the graphics safe from UV and other external damage factors. If you scratch your board while riding, the exterior layer takes the damage while your graphic layer stays intact.

  7. Do you also build the custom boards?
