cause snowboarders are ill as fuck. I love riding with em. Being a skier myself they bring a whole new element to the mountain.

I snowboard, but skiing is pretty much my life. Hard to explain, but I love skiing to death.

they don't have time between all their looting, pillaging, beating up old ladies, and general loitering.

YOUR A GENIUS! A FUCKING GENIUS!

but i'm just wondering, to the snowboarders within this thread that have stated that "skiing is the shit", or that "skiing is their life". Why don't you take up skiing?

I'm a snowboard.  I'm on NS because I'm friends with skiers and this website is about one love SNOW.

I also produce videos with skiers and snowboarder in it.

SEE?

sick vid man! props to the dude with one arm! he got more steeze than the rest of them combined!

that video was the sickest fucking thing i have seen this week, thank you for that

bascially, we all love snow, and everyone on this site talks about snow all the time, and there is no site for snowboarders. plus its a pretty sick community for snow lovers

also, this site has so many cool pictures and other forms of media on it, skiiers make such dope edits all the time, they hit huge fucking jumps and sick rails, and its always filmed very well and they have the sickest fucking style.
for some reason, snowboarders always make shitty videos with no good tricks, filmed from a shitty three-dollar follow up cam, and they always wear tight pants and have no fucking style

plus, just reading the shit other people put on here makes me laugh

i try to manage my time on the slope so that i can do both of them, taking the best of both worlds. and i'm so happy i found this site: it's so good and it get me so pumped on the coming season (with the downside of making me too impatient for it, but i guess i'm not the only one)

a side note: is the NS snowboard cult still active?

i'd like to have an invite... i requested it some time ago but had no reply...
