Ever wanted to ride your very own completely customised stick? Well, we’ve hooked up with Salomon to give you the opportunity to do just that with this design a snowboard comp! Their graphics people have put together this template, which they’ll be handing out at the Metro Ski & Snowboard Show between October 21st and 25th.

Alternatively, you can download the template here.

The comp is open to all ages, with the winners being divided into three age catagories (under 10, 10 – 15 and 16+) with one winner in each.

Salomon Snowboards will get the winning designs profesionally airbrushed
onto a Salomon snowboard and the runner-up in each age group will receive a
subscription to our magazine!

The rules are pretty simple:
1) You’re not allowed any kind of computer trickery on your winning design – it must be done by hand.
2) You must incorporate one of these Salomon Snowboards logo somewhere on your design:

3) You must send your entry, (along with your name, age, snowboard name, address, email address and contact phone number) to: Design-A-Snowboard Comp, Amer Sports/Salomon Snowboards, Theta Building, Lyon Way, Frimley, Surrey, GU1 7ER, no later than December 10th 2009

The winning entries will be announced on Christmas Eve on this site, as well as on www.salomonsnowboard.com, Facebook, Twitter & www.metrosnow.co.uk.

So what are you waiting for? Get down, get creative and get designing your own snowboard!
