GILSON Custom 1-of-1 Skis

How It Works
Step 1 – Place Your Order
Select your skis, add to cart, and complete checkout to start the process.
Step 2 – Artist Intro + Model Selections
We’ll connect you with your GILSON artist by email. Begin by selecting your size, shape, and profile to match your riding style.
Step 3 – Share Your Ideas
Send your initial artwork ideas, no matter how big or small. Whether you have a clear vision or just a concept, your artist will turn it into a rad design and send you a first mockup for review.
Step 4 – Unlimited Edits
Collaborate back and forth until it’s perfect. Unlimited edits are included, with your artist guiding design choices to ensure it will look amazing on the finished board.
Step 5 – Approve for Production
When you’re happy, approve your final design. Production typically takes around 6 days before your custom board is ready to ship.
Step 6 – We Build and Ship
Track your build on your order status page and get your tracking number once your skis ship.
