Ski - Easy
Snowboard - ESSENTIAL!

True snowboarding is SOOOO Much cooler but if it's ya first time you won't really enjoy it much... Should go and learn on dry-slopes first.
Skiing though is real easy to pick up and more people do it in a group so meet more people = arrange more nights out = more drink = better time and pain dissapears after pulling every muscle in ya body in the day!!

DO NOT LEARN TO SNOWBOARD ON DRY SLOPES. IT IS SUICIDE.

If you must learn in the UK, go to one of the real snow indoor slopes.
