easy boy... I tried it and its not easy like you said it would be, my friend plays around with skateboard back in Ph...but when he tried the snowboard, he's tumbling all over the hillside! Will try again next winter... though the expenses can really be staggering.  guys i wish ther is snow here in the phils. i wanna try snowboarding! its a lot easier than skateboard and even much faster than skateboarding! and u can rotate much faster. and its much safer too! so who is interested?! |

This is OT, but how old are you by the way? your profile says your 13. If its true, then I rest my case. since i know how to do some skateboarding, i can balance on a snowboard. they say its easier coz u wont have to lose the board. |

I saw in the snow board vid, snow boarders, also use the same body/spine armor as dh riders do, under that winter jacket
guess it hurts also when you crash in snow, especially if its thin layer and it all rocks under that snow.
full face, goggles, body armor, gloves kulang na lang (lacking) snow at board hehehe.
Imagine San mateo, maarat covered in snow, hiking it would be difficult, no ski lift hehehehe
If we are that rich, like DUBAI, they a have indoor snow park built in the middle of the desert.
one giant refrigerator hehehehe.
halo-halo any one?

Tried snowboarding when i was in Mt Charleston in 2004. Am a surfer and have skateboarded before - no, it is not easy and it is certainly not controlled the same way. Yes, it looks easy but is very difficult to balance, stop, turn, and control your speed. At the speeds you travel, i dont see how it is difficult not to break your neck or your back on a bad crash. I think mountain boarding would be better suited in the philippines. Saw some mountain boards in toby's before ...

snowboarding there in Phil?. that would be cool .... i was thinking bringing my snowboard before but it never happend... i was thinking of using the snowboard in any hilly area there anD ofcourse u need lots padding and a fullface helmet just in case i ever fall down, its only an idea maybe someone in the future would do it or maybe someone already did it... snowboarding was hard for me due to i dont have any background in any boarding sports , well it took me 3 lessons to get able to perfectly be on the board without falling ...
