Pro Snowboarding Pros
How is Snowboarding better than Skiing?
Ok I’m writing a compare and contrast essay for my class and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how Snowboarding is better than skiing, I only need the pros, not the cons.
I personally prefer skiing, but here goes:
Snowboards maintain more surface contact with the snow, creating greater stability. This makes landing acrobatic moves easier as well.
You can walk comfortably in snowboarding boots. Ski boots suck to walk in.
You don’t have to lug around poles.
The average snowboard will fit in your trunk.
Snowboarding is trendier now attracting younger (and often cuter) people.
If you get in trouble, it’s much easier to just “sit” down on a snowboard.
You can’t cross your skis on a snowboard, and your legs/feet are locked in their relative positions. This helps to avoid a host of possible injuries, particularly knee injuries.
