Answer 2

Snowboarding is much tougher than skiing. Although, between the two, snowboarding is considered more fun. Although a snowboard does not offer as much speed, it offers more maneuverability. Long skis are the equivalent of the Blackbird; all speed, with no maneuverability. If you are really into speed however, using long skis are the way to go. There are three standard size ranges: short, medium, and long, and they are determined by height. In the simpler terms, the long skis are taller than you, those are the ones you use for speed, and the ones the pros use to set speed records.
