So you decided that you want to try skiing or snowboarding and have no idea what to wear. You go to the internet and are instantly bombarded with hundreds of choices and technical terms you don’t understand.

A question I’m often asked when I share my love of snow sports is, “Which one should I try first: skiing or snowboarding?” Ahh, the ultimate question, followed closely by, “Which one is more fun?”, “Which is easier to learn?”, “Which one is more expensive?”, and of course, “Which one will make me look cooler?” Okay, maybe that last one is my own question, but still relevant!
