its because right now boarders think there the shit and many choose to neglect the period where they wore neon tight clothes and headbands. skiers on the other hand embrace it a.k.a. gaper day

Because snowboarding was the inspiration for Jason Leventhal when he created the 1st park ski company Line (even though they were snowblades at 1st). Freeskiing comes from Snowboarding. Don't forget that.
I forget who the pictures are of though.

ha ha that sounds like such a lame graphic, I've definitely seen snowboards with skier graphics tho. (that more often then not portray the sport negatively)

how there has possibly been more than one thread about this is absolutely baffling.

line made a ski.  they put snowboarders on it.  they are now selling it.

mystery solved, you chiefs have too much time on your hands.
