Hi guys,

I am 15, and I currently ski and snowboard. I can do pretty much the same tricks on both, 3's, sometimes 5's, backflip, boardslide/skislide, 270 out, and a few other things. My mum said I have to make a choice on what to and I kind of want to just stick with one thing too. Also some of my friends ski and some of my friends snowboard so im kind of stuck. Any help would be much appreciated on what to choose. Thanks

The problem is that you just tasted Newschoolers.

No matter how that went for you, you're skiing for life.

Shit man... even if you end up snowboarding you'll just be one of those guys that throws a snowboarding photo on newschoolers for the fuck of it.

This is the future:

Dude, everything looks better on skis, and skiing rail game has so much more variation. The tricks you can do are the same on both but I'd say you're a better skier than boarder.

Mostly, do what you want.

I would do both as long as you can afford to. Eventually you'll decide you like one more than the other but both are fun.













just kidding

Well NS will probably take over a lot of your free time, which should turn you to skiing. And a good point is that there's so much more variation on the rails. And you can't hit the moguls on a snowboard haha.

imo you should stick to both they hepl you learn fast with one another if you do both it gives you better understanding on how to ride, and lets face it you can beat riding the pow with a board, everything else i sorta prefer skiing
