The only skiers I've met who look down at snowboarders are really inexperienced/crappy skiers who are afraid of a collision.[/quote]

Such BS.  Been skiing for over 30 years and was nearly killed 2 weeks ago by a young snowboarder who was going too fast and did not have control.

Same here. I'm an expert skier and I hate snowboarders.[/quote]

Well, I'm an expert snowboarder and I hate skiers.  Why do you all stop at the top of the hill in a straight line and never leave enough room for a boarder to get through?  Why do you not understand on steeper slopes we need a little more room?  Why do you not ever look back up the mountain to see who is coming before you head off?  Only people who have ever taken me out are skiers.

That said, I see plenty of douchey behavior from both skiers/boarders - particularly large groups of young boys.  But, I find the skiers to be much less cognizant of the space needed by others.   And yes, I ski too - but boarding is easier on my aging body![/quote]
