Default How Young can a snowboarder be?

I've been riding for a while, and have recently had my first kid - a
wonderful little daughter. I want to get her started as young as
possible in the sport


My daughter is 4 and has a blast on skis, she has a Burton Chicklet 90 board
but isn't realy strong enough yet. There is a 5 year old at my hill who
rips.

My advice, start on skis as soon as she is able to walk up and down stairs
without holding onto anything. That's when my daughter really took off on
skis. Before that it was more work than play.
