    I snowboard myself, even if I don't like the fact that high speed controlling is a BIG pain in the

    I don't have enough balance to snowboard. I fail miserably. But, I agree it looks cooler.

    Skiing. Tried snowboarding, but just don't like it as much. Boarders on groomed trails are the incarnation of evil. They need to stay in the backcountry where they belong, and where they are really meant to be, riding on top of powder instead of turning trails to ice chutes.

    Skiing rocks.

    A few months ago I tried to teach myself snowboarding, wich was painful. Next time I expect it will go better though.

    Skiing, who wants to be a knuckle-dragger?
