Default Speed: Boards vs. Skis??

I was wondering; given the same snow and path; which is faster Skis or
Snowboards?

You must be a beginner or a non-skier. There is no doubt about it.
Skis are much, much faster than snowboards. Not to mention that
snowboarders spend most of their time sitting on their butts.

Vote for Palin-Brown in 2012. Repeal the nightmares.

Easy question. Look at the NASTAR handicaps.

http://www.nastar.com/articles/what-...astar-handicap

The boarders get 10 discount points just for riding one of those things,
plus another 35 for intellectual disability.

With that handicap they'd clean up if they didn't have to stop for a Red
Bull and to bum a smoke in the middle of the race.

Some of my best friends used to be boarders, before they got hit in
the head while stopped in the middle of the run just over small
hillocks that hid them from the view of other non-stopping boarders
coming down the same trajectory.G

Pussy Joe Horvath is a non-skier. Never has been seen on a mountain
by anyone who posts here.
Not to mention he certainly hasn't been seen in person by me.

So how many discount points do YOU qualify for? Pathological liar,
dickless coward, friend of Horvath. They should give you a disabled
parking card just for that crap.

You freaks have to stop and change your diapers. Fair race.

More threats. Do us a favor and paint the walls of your basement
bedroom with your brains. This world would be a better place with you
in hell.

Good points Walt.

I stick with short answers having a 5 year old and most peoples
attention span it works out. The other reason is I answer the intern
with the short form of the answer and follow up with a tell me why.
Growing a mechanical engineer means he should understand and apply the
basics, not just be book smart.
