feather flags
anyone ever bought one of those 12ft advertising flags you put out in front of you shop?
I see some that don't really stand out as far as the colors and then I see some that the colors are more vivid. how about a site to get a good deal on one?

I would bet there are several local places that do point of sale or large format printing do it. They will print whatever colors or text you want.

I have a vinyl cutter and can make them, but frankly I go to Vistaprint.com for stuff like that. Not much more than my cost of materials.

I am pretty sure they first appeared within the skydiving community. That's where I first saw them. We called them "wind blades" or "air blades" IIRC. DZs would/do use them for hi-viz windsocks, and to identify/border landing areas. Then someone finally realized they would make good ad-banners and the rest was history. The ones from skydiving-related sources should be better quality as well, as most use modern rip-stop parachute fabric (zero-p, UV-resistant, etc.). |
