Open NS to Snowboarders

I know this has already been discussed before but is there any good reason not to fully integrate snowboarders into newschoolers? As far as I know, snowboarders don’t have any non-reddit forum for their community.

I enjoy some snowboard content, skiers and snowboarders share many interests and I feel like the site would be much more interesting with a large amount of snowboarders mixed in.

Thoughts?

JemsThey've developed a very strong amateur scene close to skateboarding which skiing hasn't really seen until the past few years (at least what I've seen). There's street cut after street cut coming from their community and shit and it seems like skiing just takes everything cool from snowboarding and makes it for themselves so we're always a few years behind. There's nothing wrong with the skiing community cause in my opinion it looks a whole lot cooler and more diverse than boarding but their community as a whole is "cooler" and more rider / park focused than skiing. Most people haven't even taken a peek at what boarders have to offer so they immediately downvote my post.


Funny, at the resort I grew up at, it went from two skiers into the park to at least 15-20 skiers who gather and hike rails in big groups.

I'm not talking about the park scene


what percentage of snowboarders ride street compared to skiers? and what percentage of average Joe skiers hit street now compared to a decade ago?
