I love skiing... I tried riding one time and out of habit flipped my feet forward they way they would be if I was skiing and took a mega face plant on some nice unforgiving hard packed snow...havent done it sense I feel like i'd suck at it

yea, it's a lil hard at first...but after you go a few times, it's a lot of fun. The only part that i hate about it is when you get stuck on cross country runs at the big resorts, like killington vermont...that's no fun. But i feel that MOST, not all, but most skiers look down their nose at me :-\

Snowboarding. I've allready gone like a bunch of times. We take pickup trucks to the ice rink and load up the snow the zambonie drops behind the rink, drive it back to my friends house, unload, repeat until we have a decent run. We setup a box. Were all pretty hardcore into snowboarding.. we each have 4 season passes to different mountains and we go to them probobly 5-6 times a week. I'll post pics video later.

boarding all the way, I grew up skiing and once I had a taste of boarding, the sissy sticks went in the trash

I sit in a tree (absolutly still), when it's so cold you hair gets stiff and starts breaking off, wind howling in one ear and out the other, extremisities completely numb, waiting for Bambi to stumble by, so I can ruin his day.
Gee aren't winter sports fun.

Need an option for neither because it doesnt snow. Even if it did, my ass wouldnt be out in it without a jeep around me.

BOTH!

I can't wait for the snow! I'm a skiier at heart and love Taos Ski Valley. Boarding is fun, I just can't keep up with my friends if I'm not on skis.

I used to ski, but I hate the cold. Rather be in my Jeep with a hot heater fish tailing down the street.

Adapt to the conditions.. skiing for the hard pack and boarding for the powder. what about cross country skiing? When it is wtf kind of cold, I stay nice and warm cross country skiing.
