It’s Jesus riding a skateboard! These faux ugly Christmas sweaters that are actually sweatshirts are available from about 100 different online merchants. It’s a shame that Jesus isn’t rendered in the blocky fashion to match the rest of the illustration. – Thanks to Jason Harrison for the tip.

Nany Shops (insert pad nanny joke) specializes in customized digital gifts, including these kid skateboarding ornaments. You can customize the colors of the skin, clothes, and skateboard, as well as the name on the t-shirt.

I saw this Santa doll on a skateboard (with ski poles) at a Holliday x-mas party. which after 9 years, finally explains this weird looking thing.

“Merry Christmas, Santa Claus travels on skateboard” is not nearly as funny as “Frohes Weihnachtsfest, Nikolaus fährt auf Skateboard” should be. This is a German postcard from 1987, as seen 8 months ago on the Luxembourg based auction site delcamp.net.

Without the description from the seller, I would have assumed this was an 80’s era Christmas ornament with some extracurricular tchotchkes attached to it. However, the auction lists this 7″ tall Santa as dating from the early 90’s, and that it is in fact NOS from “St Nicholas Square” at Kohls. It seems a little suspect, with the soccer ball awkwardly attached to his armpit, and a plastic skateboard that looks familiar. He reminds me of those cartoons where an unfortunate rube swallows a magnet and starts attracting all kinds of metal objects. Only Santa knows for sure.

I was actually looking for some budget Vision completes (popsicles) that have the Gator graphic but just say “Vision.”  I have been told those have been seen in some Walmarts, but I couldn’t find any. Stay classy, Vision. The LED TV’s on display had a  continuous loop of snowboarding playing, interspersed with last minute gift ideas like this RC Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle on a skateboard.

Coincidentally, this is from the Hanes Big Boys’ Ugly Christmas Sweatshirt collection, but there’s obviously no relation to the seminal skate rock band. The sweatshirt shown here is called Holiday Bones, and is the only one with a skateboard in it. Looking at the bones in the hands, this looks like it might have been a fingerflip handstand attempt. – Thanks to Mrs Kilwag for the tip.
