A person snowboarding as though at a ski resort. Typically depicted wearing cold climate / winter clothing, goggles, and a helmet while crouching or leaning forward on a snowboard, as if heading downhill.

Clothing and snowboard colors vary by platform. Several platforms depict the snowboarder wearing a scarf trailing behind them, emphasizing their downhill movement. Microsoft, Samsung, and Twitter/X also show snow beneath or behind the snowboard.
