Skier for the first 20 years. Switched to snowboarding. Never looked back. But then again I'm and old man. Snowboarding is just easier on my body. And..oh yeah...beer tastes better on a snowboard!

Never tried riding but It's all about the rush. Outdoors with friends, not at work, competing with gravity and hanging out afterwards . That's what it's all about - skiing or riding.

Just to be more clear: skiing powder is A LOT harder, it's not even about the skis you have, you need to have a really good technique, you can ride powder with just 90mm underfoot if you have the proper technique, with a snowboard you can ride powder even if you are not that good on it

As a skier, I found it more fun for tricks etc but snowboarding is also very fun. I tend to switch it up quite often which I love doing. I’ve started skiing ⛷ at the age of 2 and never stopped and I loved it ever since. Then, when I was 14 years old I started snowboarding 🏂 I’m now 17 and I love the fact that I can do both without many complications. Obviously, I’m more advanced at skiing because I’ve being doing that longer but have a great balance between the two.

I would Recommend skiers and snowboarders to try other sport, and reach at least basic level of carving/edge to edge turns. When you will go back to whatever you ride, you will have more safer experience, as you will become better at predicting moves of downhill skiers/boarders. In a way, it's like becoming better (safer) pedestrian after starting to drive.

I’m a 16 year skier and have started snowboarding for about 3 years, I have to say snowboarding is a lot more fun, but I do think seeing skiers do tricks is more stylish in my opinion.

In my opinion seeing a skier do swaps and rail tricks look so much steezier

I've done both, started boarding, then switched it up. I learned snowsports at Boston Mills, the runs are so short I got tired of constantly messing with bindings. I've skied the last 20 years now, taught my son to skis two seasons ago and now he's begging to snowboard. I have a feeling I'll be back on a board this season at least once.

Why do we have to argue can’t we just like both I prefer to snowboard but I can appreciate both sports they are fun in there own way

I learned skis really fast and didn’t like how it got boring after a couple of years, snowboarding took longer to learn for me and has that learning curve I like to challenge myself with. For me snowboarding was harder but in the end felt much more rewarding IMO

When skiing, you can have fun regardless of the conditions. Snowboarding is insanely fun on soft and powder.

Dude great perspectives. I’m an all time skier but this made me want to try boarding

Snowboarded 18 years picked up skiing 2 seasons ago and wish I would’ve tried it a long time ago :( , skiing blows away snowboarding in every way , reason 1. Easy to go from lift to lift cause you have more momentum along with ski poles , 2. Snowboarding carving has a lot of wear and tear on your shins over time whereas skiing doesn’t ,3. Skiing is more versatile , you can hit more variety of black diamonds cause it’s more user friendly whereas unless you are a super highly skilled snowboarder (which is super low population) you are missing out on alot of the 🏔! 4. Skiing is way faster !! (Like comparing a jeep to a Ferrari) snowboarding is a slower sport to downhill skiing ! 5. The last and final reason is there are more options with skiing , you can get into racing skis and do that and when you get bored get into back country , then moguls , or just the park, you can also get snow blades or short skis and it’s like a whole other sport entirely !!!!! Just my opinion and this is coming from a life long snowboarder ! However if you are into the look !!! Nothing looks cooler than the snowboarding gear and boards , that’s what was a big draw for me ! Something about skateboarding and snowboarding 🏂 they are cool looking sports for sure ! But definitely try both and see for yourself :) hope this helps

Great vid over all, as someone who does both i would say over all snowboarding is more fun for just casual riding and skis are more fun for technical and advanced terrain.

As someone who also does both sports, agree with pretty much all of this, good vid my dude!

I love how cheerful and hyped in every video. Love your videos by the way😀

Hear me out skiing is easier for beginners to learn but harder to master and snowboarding is harder to learn but easier to master

For me personally I found skiing to be more sketchy, I learned a lot quicker on skis but going down steeper hills just terrified me and it wasn’t fun for that reason. I switched to boarding, fell every other second…. Going straight on flat lol But once I got it I felt way more safe and confident and I have a blast doing it!

Bro, to me you are an advanced, insane pro! Incredible job with all your videos! Appreciate it a lot! Keep up the awesome work! Thanks!

Both sports are great. The one you enjoy more is often decided by which one you are better at.

grabs look so much sicker on skis🙏🏽 it’s a whole nother level fr🔥

use me as a skiing is better button

for powder, either is amazing. Snowboard def give you a more floaty feel IMO, but if you fall you are screwed. Half the time you will need to unstrap to get out and then restrap in. Falling in powder with skis is a lot more forgiving and you have poles to help you get up and continue on your way

I just went to Bear Mountain Ski/Snowboard hill, it was the funnist thing ever. At first I started snowboarding and wow did I suck. Now Imma full on Skier, it was my first time ever skiing and it was so fun I got used to it fast because its similar to skating. I prefer skiing. P.S. sorry about the spelling. Im only 9, coming from a boy named Zach who plays hockey

Holy shit I want to ski so badly

Did both, coming from east coast riding (smaller hills) I got bored of skiing so fast - by grade 10 - and tried snowboarding in grade 11 and fell in love. It’s my favourite thing to do on the planet now. You can just mess around and do things on smaller hills that might bore skiers. If you’re thinking about trying boarding - my suggestion would be give it a try

Riding with back edge is more fun than snowplough skiing, but once at higher level, skiing is more fun as you have much more control, and less dependable from conditions. Switch is obviously, easier on board, and it's easier in powder (but when you ski enough, there are no problems at all). However wakeboard is much better than water skis.

I know im 5 months late but you are the realest guy out there I feel the same way I ski and snowboard and I am trying to stick it out and stay snowboarding but When I skied I had so much fun progressing. I feel as if I would be a better skier than I am snowboarder rn

So happy for new skiing videos

The line traveling circus on yt shows that skiers can be rowdy too lol. But yea it depends on preference i personally like skiing because I like the way it feels more.

I've done aggressive skating since i was 5 years old, im now nearly 30 and been snowboarding for the past 6 years. But so tempted to give skiing a try and see if I can do all my aggressive inline tricks on skiis!

I just switched to skiing last season(I still snowboard but I ski more) and I gotta say it’s a lot more fun in the park imo! You really can’t go wrong with either.

Skiing has the advantage in trees, moguls, traversing, back country, and versatility (shape, size, length, etc). I will say this, I have 2 boarder friends who can rock me in trees but when I board for a couple years, pow days were something special.

I did skiing for a bit and then tried snowboarding. It’s a lot more fun and I feel like there’s just more things to do on a snowboard especially if ur only slope nearby is an indoor ski slope there’s so much more to learn

I’m a 16 year old, and I snowboard a little but haven’t been able to go much because of COVID. I already never went too often and I was never really good at snowboarding. Recently when I went, I actually did not have a good time. I’ve wanted to try skiing and I think this is the time.

in my Kylo Ren voice .... "YOU NEED A TEACHER!! I CAN SHOW THE WAYS OF THE FORCE!!!"

Gotta cop the new merch soon 💪💪

I've been snowboarding one time and I really want to get back out there and learn BUT idk if that will happen this season so I want to atleast figure out which one I want to do. Something that won't hurt my knees is what im looking for. About to watch some more videos

This. Is. Spot. On.

Very helpful. thank you🙂

I mostly agree with your opinions. I was wondering if when skiing through the trees, unseen debris such as stumps under the snow causes more problems for skiers. Many times on a snowboard I may run over something under the snow but it’s not that big of a deal. Seems like on skis something hidden in the snow can really cause a crash easily (ie. One ski hitting something and getting tweaked and the other ski going a different direction). But I have to admit, that when I used to ski I would love to go through the trees. I also have to admit that I am so jealous of the possibilities on rails for skiers. Where I you ride, skiers are killing it on all the super techy rails; while the snowboarders only slide the entire rail once in a blue moon. And that’s even without any change-ups. Thoughts? Also, there’s been quite the carving renaissance for some snowboarders the last few years.

The difference is the aesthetic, skiing is much more formal and dialed, you could say it's more "organized" than snowboarding is. Snowboarding is it self similar to skateboarding as it is a representation of freedom, its culture stemmed from being the minority and breaking free from large organized companies that wanted to "change" snowboarding. Skiing is tight and aggressive and snowboarding is loose and stylish

POW is easier on a snowboard for sure but coming down from a ridge in the backcountry on skis is generally more enjoyable because there is a mix of powder, chop, ice, and weird crusts. I can usually ski all day and never fall in rough off-piste conditions but I will fall on a board though to be fair I am usually trying more tricks but even if on really steep sections skis seem better. 5+ inches of fresh POW I'd take a board most days though I do agree with that.

Yoo make a vid on how to pick a good “park suit” like that looks good and keeps you warm. I’ve only found one video total.

bro i swear! this is the most helpful video on this topic. and I've seen a lot. thank you

It depends upon one's idea of "fun". If you have fun executing graceful carved turns, using the ski edges to accelerate across the fall line with the elegant expert technique you've spent many years perfecting, always in control of your speed and yielding to other skiers with etiquette and maturity, then skiing is more fun. On the other hand, if you'd rather barrel down the hill like a slob, loudly scraping the icy surface under the tons of snow you displace with every vertical foot you descend, ruining the conditions for everyone as you wildly careen down the slope with your pants falling down, giving people the finger while you nearly decapitate skiers who had been enjoying a peaceful day on the mountain until you came through, then snowboarding is more fun.

Im used to hate powder when I only had park skis but then I got powder skis and now I relized why people love it so much

Just a heads up you can use any snowboard for powder.

LETS GO NEW VIDEO

I started off with skiing and snowboarding seems more fun to me Because I skateboard and Surf

The problem I am having is that I have skied since I was 3 years old, been out in BC, Vermont, and was going to ski Banff but due to covid was not able to. I have ski competitively for 3 years until university started as well. But I live in Ontario, where the skiing is not the best, it is not very challenging stuff. I feel like I have all that I have learned from my time in Ontario and the only way to get to the next level of skiing is the mountains and not these tiny hills. So now I am debating on if I should switch over to snowboarding and give that a try, or start learning how to do tricks and stuff since I have been scared to go over jumps ever since I broke my arm and nearly my leg.

good video, I never went skiing before. But I always wondered what the big deal with snowboarding was over skiing (that is unless you are doing a run that has the tricks rails/pipes, etc. I just got the impression snowboarding was more appealing to people who wanted to be "different", like more of a rogue type that thinks they are "cooler" because they snowboard instead of skiing.

All snowboard grabs are the same, mutes and tail grabs are lit on skis

Where do you ski/ snowboard? Some clips look like places outside the GTA (snow valley, Mt. St. Louis, etc.)

I think if you're new to one, it's funner than the other, because I find the progression really fun. But, if you're new to both, I would say skiing is funner, because it is easier to learn, so you're more likely to stick with it, and I think woods are a lot easier on skis.

If u scared of slipping and go fast what u recon ski or board?

by far the coolest merch in the game

I learned to skii before i learned how to snowboard back in the mid early 90s, snowboarding wasnt nearly as popular as it is now it was really just taking off in the 90s. But, i came from skateboarding before i did either so, once i got on a snowboard i was like ok this is what i want. I was able to boardslide and do little stuff, just off my knowledge of skating alone, but turning on ur toes stuff like that actually took longer than some of the buttering stuff, if you skateboarding ur used to popping one side, or landing on 1 truck and pivoting, so buttering was natural to me lmao i remember watching MFM videos back in the day and emulating that. One i like to do is back 180 onto what was ur nose and now is ur tail, keep that in a manual or butter and then pop out of that with another back 180 back to normal stance. in skateboarding, that would be a back 180 to switch manny to switch back 180 out.

Love the vids keep it up

As a snowboarder, mogels are my favorite

what editing platform do u use?

I am 12 and I didn' t used skies or a board ever. I am kinda chubby and tall. I want to fell the felling that you float (like when I ride my skateboard). What do you recommend me? Pls respond. I think I will choose the snowboard btw

Im a skier personally but next time i go imma go on a snowboard and test

8:45 GTFO of the friggin landing area !!!!!!!!!!

I'm still practicing on the bunny Hills on snowboarding, however I draw no interest in skiing after what happened when I was a child, when I took skiing lessons, the skiing instructors were very rude, bossy, and impatient with me, since then I never wanted to try skiing again. I actually started snowboarding last year when I was 24, the very first time was very hard and frustrating however I refuse to give up and wanted to do it again, the second time I was starting to make some progress and it also started to become very fun, third time was just another day of practice with a lot of fun. Every time I watch snowboarding on TV or on the web, I find it more exciting to watch than skiing

Looking at the merch I love the stickers, but they're white and so is my helmet. Any chance there's a way to get them in black, will they still show up in white?

This is a good unbiased video

what board do you use

What resorts do you know that have airbags on the East? I’m in PA and all of the mountains don’t have them and I want to try and learn bigger tricks like cork 7’s off of snow.

I did both but I chose snowboarding because it’s just way more smooth and no sticks but walking with one foot is kinda annoying

Skiers: "I feel bad for you" Snowboarders: "I don't think about you at all"

the merch is HAAAAAARDD🙏🏽🏔

Hey I was wondering was a lot of this footage from peak and peak in NY?

I like both

This is probably the most accurate video I’ve seen on this topic. Honestly would switch back to skiing if it wasn’t for pow. Powder on a snowboard is a fucking drug

Excellent presentation

I like snowboarding more i think it makes simple things more fun

When does peek n peak open this season?

Both are equally fun, it depends on the person, that's it. I like to go sideways. Other people prefer 2 boards instead of one. We all feel the same, and like the same.

u GOTTA get sum powder skis🙏🏽🎿 It feels like you flyin fr

I’m a park skier started skiing at 8 than at 12 switch to snowboarding than at 14 I switch back to skiing after discovering the park both are great I just like park skiing on skis a lot more

Can u make a tutorial on how to do a flip in a half pipe

I also like skies cause imn filming a ton the normal forward movement feelsnbetter for me

I have snowboarded since I was little(im 21 now)but in the past three years I have skied as well. I picked it up pretty fast. I'm not as good as I am snowboarding but I can ski down black pistes comfortably. Ski is much more technical. I believe if you don't get classes from a coach you'll never get the technique down correctly, whereas snowboarding, although there is a certain technique too, you can get away easily once you've learned the very basics. In icy conditions, skis perform better. You can lose traction with one ski and still ski with the other, but if you lose traction with your snowboard you will definitely fall. I can't say what's better on powder since whenever there was powder around I'd just snowboard( I don't have wide skis) but it seems to me that it is still easier with the snowboard; you just lay back(and you can ride powder with any snowboard basically). Butter tricks seem a lot easier to me on snowboard because you can bend your ankle and jump higher, but still, I'm not good buttering with skis. Can't say anything about big jumps because I never done them. For first timers, ski is easier since you can open your legs and don't fall; but you need to balance constantly in a snowboard. What's more fun? Whatever you enjoy the most. And if you are like me, you do both depending on your mood

Where are you guys located

what do u think this szn is gonna look like corona and all

Skiiing

ive snowboarded for 6 year stared skiing last season off and on and i picked it up pretty quick and i love doing both of them

Did you use some footage from Belleyare

Snowboarding

How wide are ur skis

Sorry how hyped and cheerful you are in every video I messed up

I LOVE SNOW-BOARDING!!!

Easy trails -> I agree 100%, it's way better on a snowboard for the reasons you've given (more fun stuff to do than on skis, the only thing I do on skis is bomb down at high speed). Steep trails -> Imo that's exactly the same for ski and snowboard, as long as you're confident there's no reason for it to be easier/more fun for skiers. Mogules -> I also agree that it's a lot more challenging for snowboarders, however it's still very doable with technique, and it even gets to tons of fun when you start sending jumps from one mogule to the other. Powder -> I just cannot agree with this. Powder is my favourite and there is NO WAY you can enjoy it as much on skis. I've tried powder skis, and they only get as good as any random snowboard in the powder. While a powder or even freeride snowboard makes you fly atop the snow. You can even charge your weight on the front foot with some of them. Jumps -> yup, It's a lot easier to land on skis than on a snowboard. You really need to learn how to land on the right edge. But I also feel like spins feel a lot smoother on a snowboard. Rails -> I don't do rails, I wouldn't give my opinion on this.

BOT: I have thin park skis so they suck on powder. People with Bentchetler 100s: laughs in Bentchetler

Just started snowboarding. I'm now riding steep green runs. I noticed skiers go faster. I see skiers flying by snowboarders all the time. Maybe skiers just feel more confident going fast. I don't know.

Snowboarding all day!

How should I do rails better?

love the vid
