This is just a little question. But what do you like more skiing or skateboarding?

I would love skiing more if i had a bettter home mountain.

Skating i like more cause it dosent cost me as much money and I get to chill with the crew

skiing for sure. i mean i love skating and all but i think of it as just a fun summer hobby, whereas skiing i'm a lot better at it and i have more fun on the sticks. although the inexpensive part is the great thing about skating. are you talking about skateboarding or aggressive inline?

Well I longboard but i definitely like skiing better, probably just cause ive been doing it for such a long time and I like colder weather. But both keep me busy. Like CR said..."the joy I get from skiing...thats worth dying for".

I have a different mindset when skiing the park or skating the skatepark. They are both really fun but I think I value skiing a lot more because I spend all the time, energy and money on the sport while with skating I can do it whenever I want.

Well I've always liked skiing more because the closest skatepark was an hour away and i could never go, but our new park is a 10 minute walk from my house so I might change my mind this summer. I doubt it though.

Yeah I am pretty big into both. I would say I like them equally. They are just different seasons. Check out this longboarding mag my friend started: http:// http://www.calameo.com/read/000559211892b029bf2d2

Skiing, only because I can't do anything on my skateboard. Even if I could, I'd still prefer skiing way more. I'm just lucky I can skate almost 9 months out of the year where as I can only ski almost 6 months out of the year.

Skating is super fun in the summer. But its only a quick fix for the lack of skiing. Dropping cliffs and ripping trees is way more fun than even cruising my long board.

I like skiing more, probably because you go higher, and it's easier to do dope tricks. Skating is fucking hard, it took me forever just to learn a kickflip. But the halfpipe is really fun skating too, and so is street.
Overall, I choose skiing
