This is a discussion on GC User's Paddle designs within the The Locker Room forums, part of the The Goalie Crease category; Figured I would start a thread for this since there has been a lot of feedback. There are 2 ways ...

There are 2 ways that I can customize a stick.
1. Straight up printed decal where I match the background on the decal to that of the stick.
2. Cut vinyl (this requires the re-spray of stick first).
The first sticks I designed and applied decals to were:
Silver RBK 6K Pro Return
Black SWD 9950
These were just a decal (sticker) printed and put on my paddle with NO clear coat.
As you can see the colours match up really well and at first glance its hard to to tell that there is a decal on there.
From the picture above you can see the wear and tear effect on the decals after a season of use. Thats pretty impressive if you ask me, as I figured it would be 2 months before I would have to replace it.
The white 'Scottish' is the newer of the three and this ones was stripped down, sprayed, applied cut vinyl, and then clear coat. It has also yet to be used. Judging from the other 2 (specifically more the SWD as that was my primary stick) I would have to say that this method should last a lot longer than the straight up decal.
I will keep you posted in this though as the use of the stick progresses.
Cost: $30 per set / $35 for US Residents

Love the white and blue one alot....Personally I would like to have my team name as opposed to my own but a really cool idea either way..
I dont play on a team yet, everything else I have has my name on it Mask, Pads, Chesty so figured why not stick too hahaha
Team name is what Grape Ape paddle is based on, with his name smaller for the shaft
