Poll: Skiing or Snowboarding

[LakerGod]

My friends seem to have a debate all the time about skiing vs. snowboarding...which is better, etc. I don't do either because I don't really like snow, but maybe I'll pick one if i read any good arguments in this thread.

skiing because...

i dont know how to snowboard yet

snowboarding looks more fun if you ask me.. i've ski'd (used to alot) and I definitely would get into snowboarding aside from skiing.

 

[BigFatCow]

i'm going on a ski trip in january and i've never skiied or snowboarded...

which would i least likely to fall on my face every five seconds?

i'm leaning towards snowboard cuz that looks like more fun.

Snowboarding. I went skiing when I was around 7 and my legs would always split apart and I'd fall backwards (I should be happy I didn't fall forwards). It just feels more natural on a snowboard than on ski's. My favorite spot is Heavenly.. By god that place rules.

Skiing, because it is easier to control. You can kinda walk with ski's because you have one on each foot. You stand on one board with snowboard and its harder to control. I can ski okay, but terrible at snowboarding. I crashed into some woman the first time I snowboarded. I turned to avoid a tree, lost control and collided right into her.

skiing because its easier to face foward snowboardings only easier if your a skateboarder, skiing if you rollerblade or skate. if your legs go apart, i dunno what your doing wrong, that never happened to me, maybe your boots were lose newbies are mostly snowboarders it seems, they litter the hills, and always end up on their asses resting. they are like annoying speed bumps, always in the @#% way.

Well, considering I go to one of the few pure ski resorts (no snowboards allowed) every year, I'd say I'm a skier

BTW, I'm leaving after Xmas for a week in Deer Valley, and then a few days in LA

 

[monk3y]

Skiing just because it's so much faster and I find it easier to do

 

[Halogen]

snowboarding is cooler because it's different. bein sideways is strange hehe

No idea, never been...but if anyone wants to offer a trip and lessons for Christmas I'd be happy to learn. I really always wanted to go, just haven't got to yet. Maybe some year.
