or they're lazy and don't want to put in the time to become a good skiier. they'd rather have quick results in snowboarding.

the learning curve for snowboarding goes a lot higher a lot faster.
I know lots of people who have dropped snowboarding for skiing though...

^true, alot of people get bored with snowboarding and want something more challenging, so they go back to skiing.

from what i see the snowboarder to skier ratio at most hills is like 60/40 in favor of the snowboarders.
only issue i have with them at all is that they make those board wide tracks on the inruns and landings cause they all take off from the same place. that sux. come to think of it they suck. well not really but they are kinda funny looking. also i notice they have more attitude than skiers seem to. guess the have little dicks or something. haha

Are u guys ignorent, or just blind? The truth is snowboarders do go bigger in backcountry, have more rounded skills( spinning both ways without even making a big deal about it ) they are more origonal jibbers for the most part, and 70% of the GOOD skiers out there are cocky assholes. Snowboarding and skiing are probley just as hard as each other so how can u say that snowboarders are lazy? MAYBE somday skiers will be cooler then then snowboaders but the fact is skiers making up bullshit ignorent lies like 'snowboarding is easyer then skiing' is just making skiers look like more ignorent, cocky, fags then they already are.

skiing is the big thing right now! think about it, ski superpipe was the last event at winter X because they wanted to go out with a bang! there are even pro snowboarders coming back from snowboarding to skiing(ex. jamie sundburg, kim stacey). if we get a pipe demo at the 2006 olympics, skiing will be bigger than snowboarding
SKIER'S IRRESPONSIBILITY CODE
1.ski FAST at ALL TIMES
2.take MAX air at EVERY opportunity
3.POACH everyone's favourite lines
4.IGNORE all posted signs
5.EVADE patrol at all costs
6.SMOKE big fat stinky ones
7.DRINK to excess

everyone should listen to d-spin. he knows what he's talking about. i'm a snowboarder and i agree 100%. i'm gonna post a video tommorow that shows you there is no such thing as a learning curve, just the right mindset/balls.

No D Spin is absolutely wrong skiing and snowboarding are not equal in fact tryin to compare them at all is like apples and oranges. With snowboarding there is a higher learning curve becuase there is only so much that can be done, and ur feet are strapped to a single surface. With skiing you have two planks that can go in any direction there is more room for adding style and more room for error. True probably right now there are more snowboarders ripping but we are a few years behiind in the scene. Give it a few more and kids will be coming back

^yeah i mean all us skiers are dumbasses because we can't differentiate between two pros. right. anyway my belief on the skill matter is that riding for a skieer is easier than riding for a snowboarder, but tricks are a lot easier for snowboarders than skiiers. and i think the reason an assload of kids switch over to snowboarding is cause it's viewed as the cool thing in alot of places and because they have never tried freestyle skiing. i bet the only skiing theve experienced is straight downhill, never knew that yes, skiers do catch air as well, and that tricks are not confined to snowboarding.
