What do so many people have against skiing?

Question

I have skiied since i was 4, and I have snowboarded 2. How ever i have nvr liked snowboarding as much as skiing... why is that? I started both in the same year.

Answer 1

I guess I like snowboarding more? I dont know.

Answer 2

It is a matter of the rude behavior of many of the snowboarders who disturb all people, not just the skiers.  If a few bad apples were taken out of the gene pool, maybe there would be peace on the slopes.

Answer 3

The perception that most boarders are not in control of their speed, with the potential risk of causing unnecessary injury to other skiers.

Answer 4

They are envious.

Answer 5

Marketing is reason #1. When I look at the kids in the liftlines it's only the snowboarders that look like fugitives from Juvie Hall. So, most of them cop an attitude that skiers suck because they are simply conforming to the "non-conformist" standards set by the snowboarding industry.

Answer 6

I never heard of people who are AGAINST skiing.  They may have other preferences, but to be against it is a strong word.  Not sure what you mean.

Answer 7

i don't know, but snowboarders never like skiers

they don't like us because we can school their asses and fly by the asses!!!
