Check this out... When the snowboarders on here are doing stuff like this, then I will agree with you all that snowboarding/skiings is anywhere CLOSE to being as hard as surfing... If you guys can do this, you are right.... But short of that... NOPE... And this is real.... http://www.bitoffun.com/fun-stuff-speedflying.html
Wow, thats crazy too. I was just making a point about board riding in snow. There are like 200 different times throughout this 3 minute clip where if ANYTHING went wrong, either one of those guys was dead. RIght away... Nuts....
i learned how to snowboard in a day, it took me a whole summer to learn to surf. I AM stoked about snowshoe mountains opening Dec 10th!
snowboarding is boring to watch... to be honest one flip-dee-do looks the same to me as a the next twerly-whirly. Same think with wakeboarding.. I guess I am not impressed by sports with strap on your board. Take um off! Them I'll be impressed that you can spin around on a board. Wakeskating... now that's cool. I took snowboarding in college in the late 90s, because I was landlocked and I enjoyed it. However since moving back to the coast ten years ago, I have yet to return to the mountains for snowboarding once. I don't know... all these "mainstream extreme sports" are starting to seem really queer. Its like tattoos, skateboarding, and Mohawks... if everyone does it then its not cool.
ok. that flying sh!t is crazy, but this guy is actually carving and in contact with the snow (most of the time): http://www.break.com/index/insane-snowboarding-run.html oh, and if you're not impressed there's also a sweet video on the same page of a hot chick shaving her head after losing a bet that's pretty cool...
i think we can all agree that skyaking beats every single sport ever invented http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBBBDaYN6vA&NR=1
i agree i learned to snowboard in one day and it took a summer to surf so surfing is obviously harder. but i still love snowboarding and love it. It beats skateboarding for me!
