I am here to tell you today that snowboarding is a short-lived dying culture and that all of the snow on our mountains should be used by the skiers! My first reason as to why snowboarding is a dying culture and skiing is far superior is that snowboarding is far more dangerous than skiing for many reasons. Firstly snowboarders have a much harder time stopping than skiers do. All a skier has to do to stop is a graceful hockey stop‚ or a snowplough for the less experienced. Conversely‚ a snowboarder

geezer’ next to them doing the same; what if the old person next to them also had a bright red mohawk and a metal dog bone sticking through their nose‚ it would be like the end of the world. The geezers’ like snowboarding as an alternative to skiing for several reasons. They say it’s easier on the joints‚ which I think would be really important to a 60 year old on the mountain.

Nordic skiing has changed my life. When I was young I did not think I was capable of performing in such an intense sport. I saw women with such strength and power‚ gliding effortlessly across the snow. I wanted to be like them‚ but I lacked the confidence‚ and I was hesitant to leave my comfort zone. I wanted to stay in a corner of the world where there was no pressure and nothing was expected of me. I joined BSF when I finally realized that I would only feel pressure if I put it upon myself.

There is a first time for everything. Some first time experiences aren’t so important while others we will never forget. One first time experience I will never forget is the first time I went skiing. I remember being lifted on the ski lift chair. The memory of being on top of the high hill with the feeling I am going to puke will be with me forever. The most memorable moment of this whole experience will be the first time I went speeding down the hill and thinking I am going to hit a tree and die
