Ok at school i was reading a freeskier and it looks like there are a ton of people just getting into newschool stuff and i think we are going to see a new problem with newschoolers disliking snowboarders and racers and all kinds of stuf like that cuase they dont have any respect for other areas of snowsports. I think that this is a horrible things acause skiers/snowboarders are starting to mesh together hope the newbies dont ruin that

 
boarder have my respect so do racers, just a little less than borders, mostly cause i use to be one, but i draw the line at snow blading
 
I ride with boarders all the time and the only problem i have riding with boarders is that you have to wait for them while they put their bindings on at the top of the lift. But thats more of a running joke between me and my friends.
 
yah im down with boarders too, until they start making remarks about how skiing is gay, then i dont give a fuck and i'll hate hard
 
theres nothing wrong with snowboarding.. so i dont have anything against them its just skiing against snowboarding you chose w.e you want so no one should have anything against snowboarders
 
i have no problems with boarders, i hang with kids that snowboard all the time.. racers just piss me off continuously.. at bristol, they all have the same attitudes, stuck up and cocky
 
when im out there skiing i could care a less if it is a racer boarder or a dude w/ twin tips...as long as they chill and cool then i have no problem with them...im so others comming into the sport will feel the same way as long as they arent treated like shit when they fall
 
nope, new kids aren't going to disrespect other snowsports, because they'll quickly realize their balls/tits will be cut off by us if they start to think they're the shit. well. that's my hope anyways.
 
I just hate the people who do stupid shit, and most of the time it seems like its snowboarders and ski school kids
 
snowboarders are cool if theyre not dicks, racers are cool if theyre not dicks, bladers are cool if theyre not dicks
 
i agree, all my friends board but when i first meet someone and they make a comment on pizza/french fry or some shit like that it just pisses me off
 
^^same. alot of boarders come off as cocky and that they dont want anything to do with skiers, but im down with the boarders im friends with.
 
i only like snowborders if their good i hate the ones that like case everytime and cant even like 3 same with hacks on skis and bladers piss me off too
 
I like the snowboarders that are good and don't push all the snow off of the mountain. But I hate racers because they always cut you off. They think they're the best and they can do whatever they want, but they can't.
 
dude not all racers are pricks, i know a few and there all right guys, they train in the morning and then grab there twin tips and hit the park in the afternoon, some racers suck but most are all right, so ease up on all the hate
 
I ski with boarders every day, and i have like 3-4 good friends that race. So maybe just some ass holes that are from where you live?
 
I think the new thing with new skiers is the fact that now they learn skiing on twins, wich is a really bad thing. Have you ever seen those guys with twin greasing a rail really nicely, and then shit in his pants thinking he has to go down the hil to get the chairlift because he doesn't even know how to ski properly? Most of the good skiers have a racing background or had a couple of lessons before hitting the park. We should encurage(if this is an english word) that
 
there are just as many asshole boarders as cool ones, i dont mind them but some snowbladers racers and just random little kids who just cruise through the park sitting on the top of jumps doing whatever they fell like not paying attention gets anoying.
 
I used to be a racer and ive tried snowboarding once i respect them both plus racing has made me such a beter all round skier
 
that's it; if you're truly into the snow, mountains and riding then it doesn't matter

i've been snowboarding since I was 13, and after going to whistler this season I was so impressed with freeskiing that I a) got my hands on some scratch BCs and had a wicked time, so I'm intending to ski heaps this coming season and b) want to go into the industry - just got a new job at a ski/snowboard store (with Armada coming in next week)

I'm just stoked to be riding, whatever it is
 
yeh im with you on that, i ride with some freeride boarders who can ride the same lines and cliffs as me. but you get some dickheads on the lifts that take the piss because im a skier even tho they are riding rentals and in a beginers(sp) group.
 
yeah i ride with only skiers and i board and its really not that big a deal because both are really tight and stylish

but i agree when kids just snowboard cuz its the cool thing to do are really gay

do it because its really fun and you like it
