I got one from riding at PC for a trip we took out there. I thought it was super sick and badass cause it showed dedication to skiing, but it's kind of a pain in the ass when it's still there a month ater.

Goggle tans are badass. Sure, they may not be the most fashionable, or stylish, but god damnit they are cool.

What??! Are you insane?
There is nothing more honorable than a manly goggle tan. In the very famous words of Luke Tanaka, "a goggle tan is a schralper's badge of honor."

All my friends try frantically to get one all season, and all I've got to do it take my facemask off for two days and BAM. Beautiful goggle tan.

Everyone loves it, work hates it.

A goggle tan is like a medal you earn. Even if it doesn't look good, it's an achievement that you own.

Outside of the Mtn people with goggletans are mocked and laughed at. (unless you're in a ski town). Then you are pittied upon because they think you have a rare skin condition.


However, on the hill and among other skiers i find it is a right of passage and symbol of passion for skiing.


Wear your goggletan proudly kids, because even when you endure endless ridicule, it makes it all worthwile when you bump into a fellow skier that understands and gives ya the "nod of approval".

I started wearing sunglasses when it's sunny and warm. That seems to minimize it. I loved my gogg tans, but I'm a little older now so i don't try for one anymore either.

Goggle tan is a badge of honor that says you shred the mountain more than people with less goggle tan than you.

Man, I used to foster the craziest goggle tans ever.

i love doing this, I usually sear sun glasses on sunny days though so I just end up with a face tube tan instead of a joker look

I'm not a fan of very intense goggle tans, because of such, I just avoid getting on to begin with.

I ski mostly at night so i dont really have the chance to get a goggle tan.

I did get some gnarly raccoon eyes from shredding all day long with my sunglasses on. looked pretty ridiculous lol

Goggle tans are a mark of pride. They mark the coming of spring and thus the annual migration to Hood.

And then, they start to sear. I'm sure I'll have melanoma here at some point soon.

It just makes me more happy when the gapers and teachers tell me "you look like a raccoon" because I know while they were doing something else inside, I was out doing what I love to do.

I got a sunburn on the very tip of my nose last year over spring break, everybody at my school spent the entire week calling me rudolph. But for me having a goggle tan is almost like a trophy, i only get to go places where i can get a goggle tan once a year, so when i come back to school after the trip i just feel awesome no matter how stupid it might look.

Yeah that was always how I used to feel.

"You're making fun of my goggle tan? Is that because riding your desk all day makes you so depressed that you need to make fun of people that see sunshine?"

If your friends are bagging on your goggle tan, you should tell them to get fucked and stop playing so much COD.
