These snowboarding quotes will help you caption your pictures from the top of the ski lift, or those shots that other people take of you shredding down the mountain. 

These snowboarding quotes also compare snowboarding to skiing and other sports.

You might wonder which is harder—snowboarding or skiing.

The answer is a bit complicated. Skiing tends to be easier for beginners to pick up but seems harder to master.

Snowboarding, however, is a little harder to learn, but once you have the basics down it is easier to move up skill levels. 

Another popular question is which is safer—snowboarding or skiing.

That really depends on how you define “safest.”

According to research and statistics, you are more likely to have an ankle or head injury if you are snowboarding.

However, people have more fatal accidents while skiing. 

The cost of skiing and snowboarding is also pretty comparable, until you get down to the equipment piece of things.

Ski equipment (Skis, ski boots, and ski bindings) costs about twice as much as snowboarding equipment.

Snowboarding history and fun facts

Snowboarding has only been around since the 1960s!

It was invented by Sherman Poppen, an engineer from Muskegon, Michigan.

It all started when Poppen belted skis together and leveraged them with a rope for steering purposes. 

Snowboarding was originally called snurfing, which is just about the coolest name ever!

Poppen’s wife coined the term by combining the words snow and surfing.

However, it was (sadly) later changed to snowboarding. 

At one point in the 80s, many ski resorts had banned snowboarding.

The reason? Well, the sport drew in a lot of the younger teenage set, and resorts didn’t really want them swarming the place.

However, you can’t hold back progress and the youth forever, and as the sport grew, the resorts lifted the ban.
