Snowboarding

Be sure to have a coach otherwise you'll get mad really fast.
If you have a friend that know the "roads", try to pick the ones which aren't picked by everybody (better for snow, as you'll get more powder. I'd not recommend too much of them though as you're a newb )

Never have been in my entire life as well. I bet its fun as hell.

If i was a ballah i'd come and join you

Try skiing first! It's got a gentler learning curve at first and it's the shit:

Rofl

tbh i have no real interest in skiing.
I am aware snbowboarding its gonna be hard the first 2 days

I am going with a group of people who are all really good at snowboarding so i hope they help me out a bit.

well lets c

you will love snowboarding AD. your a pretty athletic guy so it wont be to hard. you might have a snore ass after the first day but after that... lots of riding. what are the hills like at this place youre going too?

yea i broke my arm first run down the mountain when i tried snowboarding last year lol. it sucked ass.

only advice i can give you is wear a wrist guard for at least your first couple of hours. and just do the "leaf" until you start to get the hang of it, and don't feel bad if you are a noob for the first few hours - first day

and if you can't pick it up, skiing is heaps easier so you can always fall back to that. but yea u should be right i just had a bad experience =[
