ice skating for sure

Answer 6

ice skating is easier than snowboarding and i know  that

Answer 7

i definetly think that ice skating is easier to learn than snowboarding. if you can roller skate then ice skating should be pretty easy to pick up. also, in snow boarding it's really hard to balance. On ice skates, its like standing on your two feet. snow boarding also takes more skill level i think because when you turn right you lean to the left and vice versa, so i think ice skating should be a lot easier to learn. Good luck with whichever one you choose!
