Funny Snowboarder Hats

Skiers and snowboarders have been feuding over the same mountains for roughly forty years, and snowboarders wear the insults as badges. KNUCKLE DRAGGER is the skier-given nickname for boarders, from the way a rider's hand touches the snow through a turn, and it now sits proudly on a hat. The feud has real history: by 1989 more than 400 US resorts let snowboarders ride, up from about 40 in 1984-85, and Taos was the last major North American resort to lift its ban, in 2008. Three US resorts, Alta, Deer Valley and Mad River Glen, still ban boarders today, which is exactly why the rivalry never goes away. These funny snowboarder hats are written from the rider's side of the lift line. Badges name the tribe, and sentence designs own the stereotypes: sitting in the middle of the run, riding one plank where skiers need two, catching edges and feelings, and being exactly what the skiers warned you about. SHRED TILL I'M DEAD echoes a pledge already sold on corduroy hats, because a proven line is a good line. NO FRIENDS ON A POWDER DAY is the unwritten rule of a fresh-snow morning, and PARK RAT is for anyone who lives in the terrain park. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Wear one to the lift line, or give it to the snowboarder in your life this December.
