it seems that without snowboarding skiers wouldn't know how to do anyting for it's self. skis, music, the concept of style. there are so few who realize what i'm talking about

snowboarding would be around without skiing. it wouldve probably been better off if skiing wasnt around either.

skiing started it all...surfing was born by hawaiians that never saw snow. snowboarding was the evolution of surfing on snow. snowboarding evolved into style. "newschool" skiing was the bastard child of snowboarding because we were too stupid to realize what we could do at the time.
done and done.

work to ski...but only if you ski to work. The simple equation to skibumming 101

Surfing? Skiing was invented a looooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggggg time ago... putting boards on your feet and sliding down snow has been going on for thousands of years... surfing may be old but what i think you are trying to say is surfing became skateboarding... skateboarding mixed with skiing to create snowboarding... the style of surfing and skating is resembled in how they balance and do grabs in snowboarding... then skiing finally started to take snowboarders grabs and a bit of their steeze... thats what todays skiers have from surfing... but our beginnings didn't really relate to them at all
Does it annoy anybody that the first trick landed in Not Another Ski Movie WAS SEVEN AND A HALF FUCKING MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE???????????????? i paid for a ski movie... not a tour of a lightbulb factory

Um, I'm sure many of those hawaiians saw snow on the mountain tops of Mauna Kea or Mauna Loa which are more than 13,000 feet tall. Mauna kea even means white mountain or siomething. So the ancient hawaiian surfers that lived on or near the big island would have seen snow.
i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc
I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

what i was trying to say is that because of surfing we got skateboarding. from that we got snowboarding. from snowboarding we got parks. from parks we got newschool skiing. we may have had it with out snowboarders but i think it would have taken alot longer.

on a more serious note, have you guys ever heard of hotdoggers? badasses in the 70's that were all over the tricky shit, without snowboarding, the progression would have came naturally, we dont need them.

It's obvious that there's a lot of give and take between the 2 sports. And we do owe a ton to snowboarding in terms of where our aspect of the sport is progressing today (switch to switch backcountry booters and such). I simply don't understand why you guys have to be such pillow biters about it. Snowboarding and skiing both rock.

Skiing owes more to snowboarding than they owe us right now. Especially the stuff we're all interested in.

thats exactaly it......surfing>skateboarding>snowboarding>giveing skiiers steez (basicaly, may not be EXACT but skiing sure didnt have as much steez befor snowboarding) and becides without snowboarding who woulde we show up at the mountain hehehe also i think it pushes skiiers a bit to just say they can do stuff smoother, faster, ect than boarders

but you can't just say that snowboarding lead directly to freestyle skiing. several factors lead to the creation. and where did ski boards come from?

lets think about this, things naturally progress and expand i.e. snowboarding is a result of the existence of SKIING

It would have def come around on its own...ppl were miving in that direction and twin tips were already an idea!!
But undoubtably snowboarding exploding and then hitting the olympics def sped up the process 10 fold so this topic is dead!!
And who ever brought surfing into this WOW your a moron!! Skiing has been goin on without the help of surfing but thanks n e way!!
