i guess it is skiing, when you incorporate racing, freestyle, big mountain, and many other aspects, however in the range of parks/freestyle, snowboarding still takes the tops to my knowledge.

that article in the boston globe or whatever said ski sales went up last year to 6.6 million pairs, but snowboards dropped to 6 milliion ( i think).
if you add that skiers prob buy more outerware (the old folks i maen, and that lots more older riders ski than board, id say skiings worth a bit more.

ya i think if you include all of skiing, skiing wins by a longshot but i think snowboards beat twin tip skis. I kind of like it that way.
