Skateboard Helmet Stickers for skaters, crews and skate schools

Skate helmet sticker guide

Stickers that suit a skate helmet

A skate helmet takes knocks a bike helmet rarely sees, from falls on coping to being flung into a bag. Here is how to plan stickers that look good and cope with park life.

Why choose custom skateboard helmet stickers?

Stickers are part of skate culture. Riders collect them from shops, brands and friends, and a helmet is one of the few surfaces big enough to show off a collection without covering a board’s graphic.

Custom stickers let you add your crew’s logo, your name or your own artwork, so your helmet stands out in a row of identical matte black shells at the park entrance.

For younger skaters, choosing stickers makes wearing a helmet feel like part of the style rather than a rule handed down by parents.

Popular uses for skate helmet stickers

Skate helmet stickers are ordered by:

• Skate crews – matching logos that show who rides together.
• Skate schools and coaches – name or level stickers that help instructors identify pupils in a lesson.
• Skate parks – branded stickers for members, events and hire helmets.
• Skate shops and brands – giveaway stickers sized for helmets and boards.
• Competitions and jams – rider numbers and event stickers for entrants.

Materials, shapes and sizes

Skate helmets are rounded, so compact die-cut shapes sit better than large rectangles. Several smaller stickers can cover more of the shell than one big design, without creasing.

Flexible vinyl handles sweat and drizzle, and a laminate protects the print from the scrapes that come with falls. Gloss suits glossy shells, while matte stickers blend with the matte helmets many skaters prefer.

Reflective film is worth considering for skaters who ride to the park along roads or skate after dark.

Helmet safety and application

Read your helmet maker’s instructions before adding stickers, as some advise against adhesives or solvents on the shell. Keep stickers off vents and straps, and leave the safety labels inside the helmet readable.

Apply to a clean, dry shell at room temperature. Start in the middle of the sticker and smooth outwards so the vinyl follows the curve without trapping air, then press the edges down firmly.

A helmet that has taken a heavy impact may need replacing however good it looks, so never use stickers to cover cracks or damage.

How helmet stickers help your park, school or shop

A skate park sticker on a local rider’s helmet travels to other parks, competitions and video clips, spreading your name through the scene.

For skate schools, coloured level stickers give pupils visible milestones, encouraging them to keep coming back to earn the next one.
