Skiing and Snowboarding


 
Sports
It is always difficult for people going on vacation to the slopes at first to decide whether they should try skiing or snowboarding. Both snowboarding and skiing provide fun and exhilaration and they are similar in that one will be racing downhill when participating in these sports. The aim of this article is to discuss the many differences between these fun activities as to enable a new person take an informed choice and also to give some input to those, with experience in skiing, who want to try out snowboarding. Snowboarding is easier for most, compared to skiing. Knee injuries are lower, but snowboarders will have to protect their wrists by wearing wrist guards. In snowboarding, riders will have to expend energy to remain stationary. Riders will also not have poles to hold and keep them upright when they are not moving. Snowboards work better in snow that is powdery and crud. A snowboarder needs to learn the techniques involved in righting oneself after a spill. Once the technique is mastered it will be much easier. In skiing, the skier will have the support of the poles to keep him/her upright and standing when they are stationery. Knee injuries are more common in skiing. Skiing works better in terrains that are bumpy and have ice. In skiing too the technique to get up after a fall will have to be learnt. For a person looking for only speed, skiing will definitely be more enjoyable than snowboarding. Some people with a lot of skiing experience may want to try out snowboarding. It is not difficult to learn and their experience in skiing will come to their aid. An experienced skier will be familiar with resort environment, comfortable about descending fast, and understand concepts like edging and carving. It is a good idea, however, as a beginner, to invest some time in reading books and learning some lessons to become familiar with basic maneuvers involved in snowboarding. Many skiers do make good progress in their first few days of snowboarding. Both the forms of winter spots provide the adrenalin pump that a person is looking for and hence it is worthwhile trying them out when there is an opportunity to do so. The risks involved should also be borne in mind to have a safe and enjoyable vacation in the slopes. There are many great locations around the world that can give one a great experience in snowboarding or skiing.

Claire Jarrett is writing on behalf of SnowSkool, who offer ski instructor courses and ski courses
