I think Skiing and Snowboarding are awesome.
Does anyone else agree?
If so who is your favourite skier or snowboarder and why?

snowboarding. ouchies! it's really hard! skateboards are waaaayyyyyyyyy easier to navigate! and the snow is hard and cold to fall into!xD my bum hurt so much when we went snowboarding. yeah, I fell a lot of times!xD

all my friends have gone on a skiing and snowboarding trip buit i couldnt afford to go not fair!
oh well i guess i may be able to afford it next year.

snowboarding is harder but then i think in a way it looks better once you can do it properly because you dont have anything to help you balance except the board.

I absolutely love snowboarding!!! (it's a good thing considering how much it snows where I live)

My favorite snowboarder would probably be Nicolas Müller. He's got good style

Nicolas Müller is pretty awesome to say the least!
Keir Dillon is great as well! Well he did win the European open a few years ago so i guess he should be awesome to do that!
Shaun Plamer is a legend as well! and he's not just amazing at Snowboarding either!

Oh, Shaun Palmer is hilarious.
I'm also a big fan of Romain de Marchi. I also enjoy Heikki Sorssa (even though I'm sure I spelt that wrong.) I kind of just love the burton team I guess!

Oh, definitely. Some of them are even harder to say.
So do you watch any snowboard movies?

You get a ski and snowboard channel? That is so unfair.
I'm stuck up at college with a tragedy of a cable package. Luckily it's in the mountains, so pretty much everyone who goes here skis or snowboards (and there are some awesome mountains around). We also had like 4 feet of snow this year, which was nice.

Yeah it is pretty cool!
The snowboarding in the olympics is usually pretty good as well. I cant remember who the competitors were last time now but there was a race with four snowboarders and 3 of them crashed so the one that had completely lost control first off managed to win I always remember that for some reason!

I've been skiing once. For a week holiday with the school. I loved it! I would definetly go again, it's so much fun!

Never done snowboarding but I think I prefer skiing anyway.

I have some friends in South Africa It sounds like its a lot hotter than here at least! Snow is great as well though!

I guess it just depends on the person really but I think watching skiing and snowboarding is great even if you're not actually doing it as you can still get the excitement.

Okay, well, I'm from Austria, so I think I would be assassinated if I didn't like skiing/snowboarding.
I have been skiing for like 8 years or so but then I stopped...but I so love watching all the ski-races and stuff!
