Park skiing easier to learn than snowboarding?

nice try hansel

That's exactly how I see it, I learned to snowboard and could do 180's and little grabs from ollies in the first day but couldn't get down a blue without falling.  On skis I could run reds in my first week but could jump etc. for shit.

You're such a useless member abortionater, or whatever it is.

The world begs to differ.

i snowboarded for five years and i have to say when i switcched ov3er to skiing it came much easier when it came to rails that is just my opinion though.

Common theme here is whatever someone tried second, they say is easier...

You gotta look at beginners.

How many trash snowboarders can just barely make it to the park, but slide boxes all day?
If you take a skier at the same level, they don't even consider the park.

There's no fear factor in learning to slide on a snowboard, so I call it easier, at the beginner level

I snowboard and although I have never skiied I assume that skiing would be easier just because I can do flips and Lincoln's on flat ground just jumping. So skiing I feel would transfer over snowboarding your body is moving in a different direction so I feel it's harder to learn that momentum. Also some one said skiing switch is harder on skis. Again I've never skiied but I do know that snowboarding switch is not easy. At first at least. Definitely hitting jumps switch on a snowboard feels really unnatural. Idk though they're two different things and I think it'd be hard to say which ones harder I mean they are super similar but also super different at the same time. And to people saying I got rails an boxes the first day I boarded I did too. Doing a fifty fifty on a ride on box or a ride on 6 inch wide square rail is not doing a rail or box in my opinion. A front board on a down rail is worlds apart from that. As I imagine hitting a down rail on skis is world s different than a ride on. And spinning on and off boxes is going to be difficult whether it's skis or snowboard. They're just two completely different things

I strapped on my friends capita horoscope yesterday for the first time and he used my volkl walls for the first time. He's never skied before and I've only boarded once. After the first couple hours, I could board slide a rail to switch landing and he could also grind a box w/ switch landing. I would call that some pretty damn fast progression in a sport that I've never tried before
