you should skateboard if you snowboard, rollerblade if you ski.

it makes rails look so much smoother when you learn to controll your body on rollerblades... not to mention if you can stick big shit on 8 inches of wheels then a 170 ski will feel so stable... jumps, drops, rails, trani all are influenced by your weight transfer rollerblading perfect. rollling is were its at if you like to stay in a similar sport all year... and if you dont believe me go ask sammy carlson he rolls all summer. case closed lol

bah, best cross-training is rock climbing. it works your balance really well, and when season comes you have more upper body strength then you would get from skating. but if you are strictly a rail rider, inline is the way to go.

and no i am not bagging on inliners. i used to do it frequently, but concrete just hurts too much when you get older.

you just gotta be careful cause it is way easy to hurt yourself and that would suck to hurt your self skating and not be able to ski...

well from experience id say it helps with switch mostly, but seriously skateboarding helps the most, i have nothing against rollerblading, its pretty cool and all, ive done a bit of it too. rails on a skateboard just take soooooo much balance, and when you get them down on a skateboard, doing it on skis seems alot easier. while with rollerblading balancing is easier than on skis so it dosent help improve as much. and since skateboarding is crazy technical, doing flip tricks and stuff gets all your little movements and balance sooooo perfect.

if you really want a sport that helps skiing try snowboarding, alot is extremely similar, but since you cant do it in the summer there really isnt any point.

right.
i know that i couldnt do kickflips on skis until i learned them on a skateboard.
oh, and like, when i first started out i was skiing forwards, but then i started skating more, and i realized you should ride SIDEWAYS and thats when i invented a snowboard.

if you dont believe me then dont try it. the reason skateboarding helps is because it helps with your balance way more than anything else, just because you are facing the same way dosent make it the same, doing 3s off a 5 footer on rollerblades is wayyyyy diferent than doing 3's on a 50 footer, thats like saying that doing it on shoes helps, cause atleast your facing the same way.

yeah i disagree a little bit. i hurt myself rollerblading cause i get too into it and try stupid shit. i like wakeboarding, trampolining, and resting. helps with air awareness (feels more like skiing to me cause you're going fast), and resting is sweet

Skateboarding is dope too, my town just got a new park with a sick ass bowl section. It's so fun. There are like no good rollers around here though, prob cause you cant buy any nice skates at local stores. I skateboard though.

how good of shape do you have to be in? look at ALL the pro-riders. none of them are skinny little runts. thay all work out their entire body. having a better upper body strength assists you in initiating nearly all of your tricks. also, having the extra muscle mass allows you to take larger falls and not have them hurt as much. a person that is fairly well built from head-to-toe is going to be able to preform better than someone who has just been skating around all summer.

and again, i am not bagging on inliners one bit. the sport is sick, and i wish i still did it as often as i used to.

i'm pretty sure hittin up water ramps is the best cross-training.. i'm sure skates would help with balance on rails, but wouldn't airs be different?? i've never skated since i was 9 so i wouldn't know but it seems like spinning and flipping would be a little different
