People here where I ski in NZ refer to goggle tans as "punter tans" meaning they are lame, but back home in Vermont, if you get a goggle tan, you are a hero.

Which is a more common view?

By the way I have a rediculous one right now.

5 hour Endurance race in the blazing ozone-holed New Zealand Sun
 
there alright i guess. It's not like you try to get one, they just happen. I'd rather have a partially tanned face than a pure white albino face. But, there pretty average when the season's over. You look like a racoon.
 
here in Switzerland it just means you're a rider.

and these days when you ride at almost 4000m its impossible not to have a g tan.
 
its a mark of pride for me and my friends, but we live in the bay area, so its not exactly a ski town, and i doubt most people know why we are half tan.
 
yeah i've had one most of my life growing up racing and such spending 5 days a week on snow all winter and summer

I have just come acustome to it, i like it

hot on girls jmo
 
goggle tans i kind of over i would say

i think that summer glacier shredding was the last time they were cool for a while, because they're considered lame and nz and probably will be for the rest of the season so yea im gonna go buy some sunscreen haha
 


i used to always get shit when i was younger at school for them. ( i dont go to school around any mountain). kids used to think i had something wrong with my face. now i just dont give a shit what people think or say, i think their sick.
 
if it happens it happens and it's pretty tight but if u got certain skin types you gotta be careful skin cancer is a brewin I already got some sketchy spots on my back that I got to get removed a little sun screen or even a gangsata bandan can prevent harmful uv rays touching your flesh
 
unless you go to a school with lots of skiiers that will appreciate it, ur just making urself look like a fag, obviosly, if their was a school full of NS kids, then it'd be different, but explaining to the preppy girls at my school why having a goggle tan is cool is imposible
 
a dark goggle tan on a skier/boarder is like a lot of metals on a soldiers jacket. It says 2 things,

1. Im better then you so shut the fuck up when im talking and

2. I have been here longer then you, so once again, shut the fuck up
 
true words, true words. I personally have prefer not to have one because I feel it affects my magnum and my blue steel. Just a bad sit when you affect the look.
 
i hate my googletan, its so fuckin intense like the part where my googles met my helmet disapeared around the end of august
 
google tans are sick, but most of the time people look at you funny, like youve been staring in an oven, cause they dont know why your face is discoloured
 
I got mine in PA, two years ago, 3 days before my semi. I got a real bad goggle tan. The pic looked terrible, and i got no poon because of the tan. But i didnt get one last year. Hopefully i get one this year after semi.
 
i went to whistler for spring break..my cheeks and everything red as fucking rudolph, even my nose it was ridiculous and around my eyes it was albino white i looked like a faggot but hey i got to go to whistler!
 
my skin pigment is like forever two different shades.... even after not skiing since hood in the summer til now. i can still see it.
 
theyre unavoidable if you ride enough. I love going to school and everyones like what the fuck
 
me and my bud jer try to get them every year. We make it like a battle. I always get the littl shit, but he fuckin looks like half of his face is dirty all the time.
 
they are sick. i love it at school cus there are only a few people with em and its like we are in a secret club or something cus people are like "wtf is wrong with your face?" but we know wats up.
