Why yes let’s deforest the side of a mountain so we can run down it and possibly hit trees at fatal speeds. Im fucking glad climate change is making this bougie bullshit harder to do. I went skiing once, horrible experience. Everyone in the skiing lodge was a rich white asshole and it felt like I walked into a country club, no a hitler youth recreation club. If you own a timeshare let alone an entire house at a ski resort you deserve the fucking wall!!!!

Admittedly I've never snowboarded, but it was my understanding that steering was only a little bit harder, and even then failing to steer you'll probably just wipe out (because the added difficulty is how it impacts balance, along with the asymmetry) whereas failing to steer on skis might leave you accelerating forward.
