It is definetly always the snowboarder who is more willing to die ... if you fall that snowboard gives mother earth a nice lever to twist the shit out of you 🤣🤣🤣
You can not be so aerodynamic as a skier... that's the reason why snowboarder is not so fast. Second reason the surface of the board and skis, larger in snowboard so the friction forces are higher.
Had a 64 long board and a buddy of mine had some shorty skis. We would barrel down the slope and he'd leave me like I wasn't even moving. Very humbling
@@coasterthekid8867 don't know if its that easy tho? Cause with less surface you have more weight concentrated on a smaller area, making the friction worse I'd guess. But apart from that for going fast, and i mean real fast, you want to have long skis.
@@JGStone If you want to go real real fast, yes yes you absolutely want longer skiis xD I have my Atomic sx10 supercross from like pre 2012 that are 185tall, And I am only 179.

@@projectdelta50you can still go fast as fuck on a board faster than 99% of skiers but you’ll never beat that 1%. There’s a reason most snowboarders lean towards freestyle and most skiers lean towards freeride but that doesn’t stop some skiers from going ham in the park.
@@projectdelta50 It has nothing to do with tucking down, it's basic physic about friction and mass distribution. At equal skill skiers will be faster.
The world record for the fastest snowboard speed was set by Jamie Barrow in 2022. He reached the staggering speed of 131.11 mph (211 km/h) whilst being towed by a vehicle. The fastest downhill snowboard speed is 126.31 mph (203 km/h). The Olympics website said skiers regularly reach speeds of up to 95 mph. In 2013, French skier Johan Clarey reached 100.6 mph in a World Cup downhill race. While it's not an Olympic sport, Italian speed skier Ivan Origone set a world record of 158.4 mph in 2016.
My friend almost met Maradona for going so fast on the snowboard. Snowboarding is made for fun, not for going fast. As a former skier who switched to snowboarding I tell you that the feeling of speed and danger on a snowboard is practically double that on skis, the good thing is that it is directly proportional to the fun it produces.
I switched back to almost exclusively skiing after a few years of giving snowboarding a fair shot. I just love love love to go fast and skis are where it's at for speed. Nothing quite like blasting down a freshly prepared slope in the morning with up to ~120km/h (I know the pros hit up to 160km/h on some runs but there are still entire worlds of skill between them and me).
I love watching the arms counter balance his weight while riding. Don’t know why but some people see that as flailing, and that they don’t know what they are doing. Yet that shit is a beautiful thing to watch and notice yourself doing.
@@pwcgp2199 well, that depends very much on the type of avalanche, all avalanches that you can see beeing outrun in videos are just fresh-snow avalanches, you never will be able to outrun a floe avalanche - which is the most common and most deadly type cause if it starts the whole slope breaks in milliseconds into a mass of moving snow.
That's nonsense. As someone who raced for an Austrian team, it's not at all about keeping your skis close. Look at some videos of Olympic race skiers. Neither slalom nor racing holds them together.
As a skier who usually hits the slope with a snowboarder who has put in more total time and who is better at a lot of tricks and stuff, the only time it's actually a competition is on moguls where I'm not comfortable going super fast. If we're on a smooth run and I'm not worried about running into people he can't even touch me. Especially if I tuck since that's much harder to do on a board.
They used skis during World War 2. I've seen footage of them training to shoot while moving. Imagine zipping down a mountain that fast while shooting and doging bullets.

Nice. Btw have you noticed one of the skiers at the end? White jacket, black trousers. Absolutely invisible till the very last moment, that might be really deadly. Wear very bright clothes while skiing, folks. My instructors have told this to me already like 20 years ago. Never ever wear white black combination while skiing. Worse is only to be dressed in white. Yes, it's very cool on photos, and also very invisible.
I get your point! I always wear visible colours. But don't you think the boarder is the reason she was at risk? At that speed if the skier decided to go to the right he for sure wouldn't have been able to stop in time.
I think I held my breath the whole time till you covered them in snow😂 I only injure myself in the snow, pretty badly, every single time.... which i hate because I love the snow!! But, I loved doing the roost on jet skiis for sure! Glad you didn't die!!😂😊

It's not about who's faster, it's about who's more willing to die.
It is definetly always the snowboarder who is more willing to die ... if you fall that snowboard gives mother earth a nice lever to twist the shit out of you 🤣🤣🤣
Haha, I guess, but if the skier knows what he's doing, he will always outrun a snowboard on a fast descent.
@@StevieTruth see if there is a decend the snowboarder has a chance. What about a horizontal straight?
Willing to die means nothing when you are a fucking goat man for yourself
Is just a stupid wish (before time comes) and people have a lot of time to change their minds... If they are good for themselves
With the same skills , the skier will win ever
You don't even use the same skills though. Snowboarding and skiing require different leg muscles, different point of balance, etc
You can not be so aerodynamic as a skier... that's the reason why snowboarder is not so fast. Second reason the surface of the board and skis, larger in snowboard so the friction forces are higher.

yeah straight lining it on a board is surprisingly hard and for me 1/2 the time i end up eating snow
yuuuup full on. imo u need to be a fairly decent boarder to keep up with a skier thats midlvl n not a scardy cat
Anyone who knows to tuck in on skis when riding fast, will run away from board. It's hard to get yourself as aerodynamic on board
