SnowBoarding's Less INTERESTING

On a snowboard, there is only so much to talk about and explore. But, on a pair of skis, you have a wide variety of interesting things you can do with your independent legs. And ski poles have several different modes of purpose. Further, snowboarding is a paradox on the bunny-hill: there is nothing harder for a snowboarder to deal with than totally flat terrain, either trying to move or just trying to get up--so beginning snowboarders have a handicap from the get-go. Snowboarders need things just right all the time, not-too-flat and not-too-steep, hence expensive Terrain Parks to accommodate them. Skiers can enjoy it all without having a bunch of self-imposed special needs.
