ski v snowboard

come on lets have a debate which is best

re: ski v snowboard

Has to be skiing....
Boarding cant be fun there always sat down in the middle of the piste

re: ski v snowboard

Ive got to say boarding, tried skiing last year didn't get on with it, boarding is much more fun!!

re: ski v snowboard

I think that nowadays skiing will be more popular coz the new materials like funski (2 side ski) will be alot entertaining for youngsters..
Today however boarders are something to look out on the piste all the time (for skiers)! I always ski with my ears 'on my back'.
Personally I think that the two should be on diff slopes

re: ski v snowboard

why is it that boarders have to sit down IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PISTE?? Can't they stop on the side for their chat or whatever it is they do?

re: ski v snowboard

went sking for the first time this year. also had snowboard taster lesson. i found that sking was the more technical . classical if you like. wereas snowboarding was fun and rebelious.

re: ski v snowboard

Changed from skis to board 6 years ago and no regrets. Although the new skis seem quite fun also.

re: ski v snowboard

Cliveo you love a debate don't you! Skiing if you've got class and boarding if your very cool

re: ski v snowboard

For someone who only takes part in winter sports for one week of the year it's got to be boarding. The learning curve is very steep, so after the initial couple of harsh days (4 or 5 even) you do feel quite competent. You fall quite a lot, but it doesn't seem to be quite as dangerous as skiing ( legs not going in different directions) and it's easier to stop. Plus it is cooler
