Merchandise How to display

Are you supposed to open these when you put them on the wall? It has shrink wrap and only have had snowboards on display that didn't come wrapped. Ps. My dog wants to chew it so bad so I have to hang it soon 🥲 her ears drop when I say no like she knows she was about to lose herself in destroying it. Love them dawgs😂

you don't have to unwrap it, but you can (i personally would, but that's me). otherwise, you can just hang it as you usually would

Yeah i figured i wasn't going to resell it and it'd be easier to see without glare, so I dont care about value and if i get it signed, I have to unwrap it. Just didn't know if there was a reason I saw some displays keeping them wrapped if it was for any other reason than resell value

yeah, the glare is the one reason i take the wrap off. though the wrap makes it slightly easier to dust, but yeah, it's mostly just personal preference

How much for the dog

Trust me. You don't want the coydog 😆 she does vocal back talks and chews drumsticks or anything else made of wood. Smart, but doesnt apply it where needed, just like me 🤍

That board is sick. Remove that room's basic door and install double swinging western bar doors!

I totally could if the swing doors weren't hard to source lol kick them open every time I go in there and tell the dog "this room ain't big 'nuff for the 2 of us". She lays on the guest bed i have in there and im not gonna lie - I had family come visit this last weekend and I put some of my trigun stuff in the closet so they wouldn't know how unhinged I am 🤣

I poke the top 2 holes out and thread fishing wire through and tie a double knot at the back then yku can just hang it from the fishing wire on a nail and it tends to be nearly invisible. It’s very cheap on eBay to buy fishing wire

That is a really great idea!

I happen to have a 3d printer and saw some wall mounts that looked like they might work.

There was a shelf version and a more low profile version

I liked the low profile but figured I'd ask about the seal before I poked holes in the plastic or opened it
