Well I live on long island and I'm going to get a big blizzard like 2 feet and big drifts. I'm going to be like swimming in snow. It's going to be the best snow storm I have had. But power may go out because of to much snow. Its just starting to snow around my house now.

skiing > snowboarding
:D
It's been snowing here non-stop since 4:00 am this morning. I'm not sure how much yet though, but when I look outside, everything is white. :) We're actually supposed to get a thunder storm in the middle of all this. Pretty cool I think. I've never seen lighting and snow at the same time, should be neat to see.
I think we're not supposed to get more than 24" today though.

I haven't tried Skiing yet but it'd probably better than snowboading at somes things, but snowboarding I think is just more wicked.

I started skiing when I was 5. My dad taught me.
Then, about 3 years ago I tried snowboarding for the first time. Took no lessons, and my dad couldn't teach me cause he never even tried it.
I actually found it very easy, but maybe that's just cause I used to skateboard alot.

lol sorry couldnt resist, i've got a friend who skatboards a lot and when he tried snowboarding he found it extremely difficult, of course he only got to do it for a day before he got really sick :|

Oh well for some people if they skateboard they might be good at snowboarding. But thats proabably not for everyone. Now at my house its snowing harder. :)

i skateboard and snowboard
i am sponcered at skateboarding(local) and my snowboarding skill is nothing more then being able to go down a hill
the two are completely different, the only thing thats the same is the pain and both are on boards(not technically, but figurativly)

But turning is almost the same. So I guess there not the same.

01-22-2005, 03:17 PM
turning, well, it depends on how you skateboard, i can turn almost 4 different ways on my skateboard
kickturn(wheels slide)
truck turn(an actual turn)
ollie turn(ollie then turn in the air)
pivot turn(weight on tail, board goes on 2 wheels, move front)
how many can u really do on a snowboard?

01-22-2005, 04:24 PM
Oh I turn almost like how I turn on the snowboard.

01-22-2005, 04:28 PM
the normal turn, right, lean turn, i think thats most like snowboarding

Im a good skater...ive won many competions and...snowboarding is nothing like skating...for one the board happens to be attached to your feet... :rolleyes:
Scroll Lock
01-22-2005, 04:36 PM
no, theres definitly some things the same
also, a good skateboarder has the board pritty much attached to his feet aside for in rotations

01-22-2005, 04:38 PM
Ya the grip tape is like the attachment. Lets all agree that somethings are alike and somethings are differnet.

01-22-2005, 04:54 PM
waoh...its still not really attached tho....lol
Scroll Lock
01-22-2005, 04:55 PM
not really, but if the board gets more then a inch away from you while your not fliping or rotating, you suck
my board, even while ollie'in stays within a half inch, ive checked it in my videos

right now, i have an enjoi, its the best in my opinion, but my sponcer is only local, so sometimes they don't have the cash to give me brand name, so they give me "phatman" decks, its their brand
