Why do so many snowboarders hate us?

this is most probably a repost, but I really want to know what so many boarders have against skiers, like it's not like we go out of our way to piss them off or anything

Because they are still in middleschool and/or haven't hit puberty yet.

ironically its the core snowboarders that have the most love for skiers, and the weekend warriors that buy into Burton that hate skiers.


the more you slide on snow, the more you love other forms of sliding...even if only because its funny(snowlerblades, monskis etc)

its also because we dont look like we have a bear trap stuck to our leg when getting off the lift.

This Pic is the way it should be. We all enjoy shredding the park, trees, steeps, groomers. people that hate on each other are shallow and short sighted. /endthread

I don't personally know one snowboarder that hates skiers. And I don't think the ones that do hate us are really chill  people. Its only annoying snowboarders that hate skiing. But a lot of skiers hate snowboarders too which I don't understand. But that might have something to do with it.

If you talk to any of the boarders outside of the park they tend to be cool, when you seem them in the park however.....

I actually know a snowboarder who still doesn't like skiers... well - skiing. he's civil with us, but he'll talk shit behind our backs about the sport, and sadly the people.

off the slope we're friends though. I think it's funny that someone in their late 20's still has their hate on. didn't we get over that shit like a decade ago?

I feel no shame in admitting that i hate ALL snowboarders. the only ones I like are the ones whom I've met off-hill and became friends with. 99% of them are huge fuckin d-bags.

inb4 steve's a hater.

I dont mind, I'm just sick of snowboarders and the hate they give skiers.

I live in quebec and i we got winter 6-7 months a year, so the only ones i hate are the one bitchin' about winter. Its there more than half the year, learn to deal with it. I don't hate boarders, they are kind of the origin of skiing, skiers used to try to do "snowboard" tricks. But to anser your question, i think they are the same type o' people that are racist, never will go anywhere and can't accept anything different. Whew, that was long

the only snowboarders that hate on skiing are immature 12 year olds that think its the cool thing to do and people who cant accept what others choose to do

plenty of skiers hate on snowboarders as well

people keep asking "why cant we just all get along?" and its cuz of people like SteveStepp that just hate them for no particular reason

the snowboarders at my mountain hate us because "we wreck the lips of the jumps" by going off the the jumps with our legs shoulder with apart so when they carve acrosed it is a little bumpy, because them carving acrosed dosent do anything to the lip

snowboarders create washboards after jumps/rails, their argument is invalid

So do skiers... what happens when you don't land with a set of tips downhill. Or "revert" right after you hop off.

There are tons of snowboarders who hate on skiing. It's like the bmx/skateboard thing, skateboarders are pretty big douches to bikers. I do both and although I like skateboarding better, I don't feel any cooler when I skateboard? I think it's the general idea they have about skiers. Saga,LDC ,stickered out helmet with their Armadas. They hate that style. Which is why I don't wear that shit!

Skier don't? Is my meter broken? Are you honestly going to say that it isn't the wear and tear that degrades the condition of the lip but it's just the fact that it was a snowboarder? I hope you be trollin'.

My Friends little bro is in middleschool and he tells all of his middleschool friends that I'm a pro skier so all of these random little kids come up to me and ask if I know Shawn white. Haha kinda funny story but also kinda irrelevant
