Skiing vs Snowboard
Started by User in Beginning Skiing, 61 Replies
having skied for the past 20+ years since i was at school i decided to try boarding this summer to "see what all the fuss was about" :lol:
After my first lesson in MK I was board (geddit :?: silly but stuck with it and my 2nd lesson ended up as one on one owing to me being the only person there :thumbup:

During my 2nd lesson a group of trainee instructors were on the slope and by the end of my 2nd hour learning to board my instructor commented that if I continued to progress at the current rate I could be at their level in no time at all. I think that adequately demonstrates the gulf between the learning curves of the 2 disciplines, having said that, I'm a skier at heart :lol:

owing to a late change of plans we are now offto Pila 7th March and having never been before I'm looking to see if anyone has any experiences of the resort or area that they can share.
