Always cracks me up the Skiers vs Snowboards thing. I’ve skied since I was 4 and there just weren’t boards around then. Did a bit of boarding when they came on the scene and I was a teenager.
relaxed, flowing style – just like on a bike flowing doesn’t mean slow! 😀 and skiers were ripping the powder before snowboards were ever invented as well. It’s a great feeling holding an edge on skis with your everything you’ve got over it just the same as it is floating down some powder chute somewhere. All good.
Boarding is good too, not knocking it, just for me skiing is much better and more versatile. Anyway, we digress from the topic in hand!
