Do you go faster in skiing or snowboarding?

Filed Under skiing 

jordanjohn21 asked:


If a skiier and snowboarder were going down a equally steep slope, which one would be able to go faster. If both had the fasted boards possible and going at maximum speed, which would win? Overall which sport is faster, skiing or snowboarding?

      Skiing is spread over the snowboard so there is faster by far because your weight is faster by far because your weight is.

      Skiing is less surface area.

      Skis are faster then snowboards, all things being equal. However, it usually has much more to do with skill level.
