snowboarders spend most of their day at the terrain parks and pipes.

There are all kinds of boarders and all kinds of skiiers. I ride with
both, but obviously gravitate toward those who enjoy the same sort of
things I do. It's no problem boarding with skiiers, although expert
skiiers will get down the mountain faster than expert boarders.

If he's happy with skis, get him a pair of twin tips and he'll find
plenty of company in the park.
