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

Blaze Phoenix Magical Transportation | 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. |

Blaze Phoenix Magical Transportation | 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! |

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! |

Gabrielle Ruff International Cooperation | 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. |

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! |

Blaze Phoenix Magical Transportation | 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. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Nancy Hudonson Second Year | 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! |
