Snowboard/Skiing?

Yes, I'm aware it's still summer. But as a snowboard-lover I have to do things to calm snow withdrawal. Do any people here snowboard? What resorts do you go to?

I just snowboard / ski here at my local hill, not big or anything but it gets the job done. Three easy runs, five intermediate runs and three difficult runs.

You are one lucky sonofabitch. Don't you get snow year round?

I'm going through the same withdrawals dude. I've decided to make a box for some autumn jibbing, about halfway finished after tonight. I live on the east coast so I don't get to too many good resorts.

Park City and Snowbird this january though, can't wait.

:)

Also,

Woah that's tight. Me and my friends built a box, took it to a park with a big hill, and rode on it. Worked too.

Oh snap you actually rode on yours?

Only problem is that around here we don't get much snow... so I'm just going to steal some from the nearby ice rink's zamboni.

Yeah I've heard of people doing that. We don't really have any ice-rinks by us to. I'm praying that we get some sort of base by November.

Skiing > Snowboarding, prove me wrong in 5 words or less.

I need to get better at snowboarding.

I go up to Mt. Tremblant in Quebec every once in a while with friends to have a good time. Its been rated the #1 resort in north America. ;p

I'll take that as a compliment. Who wants a dull crash?
Plus, us skiers have our poles that we can bash you with. I am clearly the victor here.

Who cares what you think... ;x

Do I win this pointless argument? Can it please stop now?

Number one Google result for skier:

Number one Google result for snowboarder:

I have prevailed in this quarrel.

Bawwwwww.

Oh well, I still like my skiing better. I tried snowboarding a couple times and just...guh. It feels wrong to have both of my feet stuck to one board.

And when the snow melts they have the apline slide.

You sit on a big skateboard with a brake, and i think you can get around like 30-60 miles an hour if you just gun it on A 1/2 mile track.

Those are more fun than Jesus, deep fried on a stick.
