Most skiers just ski, without regard to whether they're "cool" or not. Hence, not overrating nor underrating skiing.
I tried boarding and found it quite fun. I also found it quite easy too. So yes, I think boarding IS overrrated by its pratitioners. Especially the "coolness" factor, like they NEED the confirmation they're doing something right (e.g. starting this thread)! Jeez...
Do I want boarders gone? Nop. Some of my best friends are boarders. Do I want them to grow up? ABSOLUTELY.
This thread is so totally childish...
(BTW, I got hit by boarders more than by skiers. And almost NONE of the boarders stop to check if their "victim" is ok. At least SOME of the skiers do) |
Theres just so much wrong with this post... And then you spew the "childish" word... wow...
