That was a odd course for them to go head to head on. But the results are the same according to Guiness:

Highest Speed on a Snowboard: The highest recorded speed by a snowboarder is 201.907km/h (125.459mph) by Darren Powell (Australia) at Les Arcs, France on 2 May 1999.

Guinness World Records mountain biking downhill on snow: Eric Barone of France, April 21, 2000, 138 mph, Les Arcs, France.
