Is it hard to learn how to snowboard if you can already ski?

[iMicro]

I'm thinking about learning how to snowboard, I can already ski, so if I already know how to ski, will learning how to snowboard be hard? I just don't want to put time and effort into it if the learning curve is very long. It's just something I want to do when I'm tired of skiing

thx

Snowboard /=/ Ski


It is totally different.

2 totaly different things. But ofc, it will make it a little easier when you know that balance is required, where to ski where snow is good and all that basics.

if you know skateboarding, you probably stand a chance. but ski?? NO WAY.

Depends how good you are


in overall coordination.

Rent out a board, go to the kids hang, break a couple of bones.
