I've skied for about 12 years and I've boarded for about 7-8 years, and as a person who's pretty skilled at both I can honestly say, I enjoy skiing more. I find it provides a better challenge and can really work the body's muscles harder and faster. Plus, like rockingpianoman said, I can go way faster on my skis than any of my more experienced snowboarding friends can go on their boards haha. But if I want a relaxing day where I'm just enjoying the slopes, then I'll take my board.

I like snow boarding better.. I used to skateboard so it was easy to change up even though the concept of the two is a bit different. Quite similar at the same time too.
I might end up doing the splits if I tried skiing. xD
I like skiing better , because I don't crash om my arse , wrists and head as often as with boarding ;D
I feel more in control on ski's and I'm just better at it than snowboarding ( also I can get faster than my boarding friends :p )
i love to ski too, I've been skiing a lot longer. but I just got into snowboarding and I love how easy it is to do tricks. Hmmm probably skiing still..

I prefer skiing...because I grew up with skiing (I could ski before I could swim or ride a bike) so I find it easier.
Skiing. Tried boarding too. It just isn't the same! With Skiing you have more control and I don't know it is just more satisfying.
Skiing, twin tips, no poles = lots of fun, even in the terrain park!
skiing- its a lot more natural xD
I like skiing better because I would have killed myself snowboarding if I didn't have a helmet on.
