What comes to mind when you think of tattoos? Bikers? Rockstars? All-around badasses? Generally people conjure up images of rebels, cool people looking to express themselves permanently on their skin. I’d like to think snowboarders could be thrown in that “cool” category, but like anything cool in this world, there will always be people out there to screw it up. After scouring the world wide web, I have come across quite the collection of awful, horrible, poorly done, and poorly thought out snowboard related tattoos for your enjoyment.
When it comes to terrible snowboard tattoos, there seems to be themes. I’ve decided to split it up into the following categories of Lame Scenery, Terribly Drawn Snowboarders, and Brand Whores.
I wasn’t sure if this should go in the Brand Whores category since it does say Never Summer, but either way it’s a fail.
The least epic pow slash ever.
I love snowboarding and all, but I still don’t want to ride those mountains.
I think I got this tattoo with a gumball once.
Another strong showing for the lick-and-stick tattoos.
Being that disproportional might make it hard to actually ride down.
I actually think this tattoo is AWESOME, but incredibly poorly done.
I love ya Rome, but this is rough. It’s like he’s trying to be a half-assed Rome leopard.
“This would look sick with a tribal armband!”
Sorry for putting pics of myself in here, I just wanted to show off.
This guy took home the gold for Biggest Douche in the Game.
I don’t know what it is about snowboarding that makes people get bad tattoos, but props to skateboarding for continuing to be cooler. I searched the interweb for a hot minute looking for crappy, poorly-thought out skateboarding tattoos and couldn’t find any! It was just Google image after Google image of sick tats. I even Googled crappy skateboarding tattoos, ugly skateboarding tattoos, and bad skateboarding tattoos, and besides Rob Dyrdek’s full back Monster tattoo, this is the worst one I could find. Cheers.
