Snowboarding
Posted Feb 26th 2007, 3:13pm by Daniel Collett
Snowboarding is a boardsport that involves descending a snow-covered slope on a snowboard that is attached to one's feet. It is similar to skiing, but inspired by surfing and skateboarding. The sport was developed in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s and became a Winter Olympic Sport in 1998.

I went skiing few years back and enjoyed it very much, after falling over the first 5 days I mastered it the last day! Wouldnt mind giving snowboarding a go though!
