Talking with my brother, he won't convert to snowboarding, and I won't convert to skiing.

So is there anyway we can put aside our differences and try the other?

Anyone have any success doing this?

    I started Off Skiing a few times here and there... Then when I started going to school in VT.. I gave snowboarding a try and fell in love with it from the start... and bought a board a few days after my first experance on snowboarding..
    I really had no desire to ski again!! I found skiing easyier at the starting as beginer, unlike snowboarding which you spend a lot of time on your ass starting off. but I progressed so much faster on snowboard after I got idown the Basics.. However I respect Everyone on the Hill having a good time thats what its all about..

    oh yea, and watching guys go through the trees and stuff, that is sick!!
    We'll see in once I go out West, maybe I'll give skiing a shot

    got nothing to lose, and he should try boarding that day too

    Thanks for the advice guys, this community is the best!

    I'm an avid skier, but the only thing about snowboarding that excites me is when I see a guy just surfing through deep powder on a board. I think you should show your bro some powder boarding out West or way up North. He might consider it then. And as for you, have you ever seen anyone just rip through the bumps? That is probably the one thing I love most about skiing! Just flying through some moguls with your skis on fire!
