True. Another thing that I noticed is that, outside of special places like parks, the skill level of the average snowboarder is very low. It's rare to meet someone who started snowboarding 15 years ago and still doing this, while it's pretty common for a skier. I switched to backcountry, bought a splitboard set and pretty happy with it. But I'd have chosen skis if I was starting now
