Boarding is so lame and it tears a mountain apart. Just ask any ski station operation how much more boarding chews a mountain up and the increased costs as a result to effectively put the mountain back into shape at the end of the day, they'll tell you.

Then, of course, you have the whole boarder attitude factor which is about 180 degrees from the average skier.

"According to Jasper Shealy, professor at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, N.Y., who has studied ski related injuries for more than 30 years, the number of collisions accidents with other skiers or snowboarders accounts for only 6.4 percent of reported accidents. Shealy’s research also confirmed that alpine skiers are three times more likely to be involved in a collision with other people than snowboarders. " -the NSAA website

taos is beutiful...ive never snowboarded THERE, but ive snowboarded else where and i cant wait to get to go here, the only worry is the being hit

[edenfire57]

it is different now that there are boarders up there. i have only gotten hit by one boarder this season but it was ok with me. you guys ain't that bad. i don't like going to other places tho TSV is the place for me.

im poachin ur resort next week. Also ur a close minded d bag. i got a question for you, Which side won more medals at the winter games of 2006 for the US, Skiers or snowboarders??? yea snowboarders r such bad examples i mean they only got the job done in turin while body n his crew were gettin drunk b4 the olympics way to represent our country at a world event. Snowboarders are the future of ski resorts. GET USE TO IT!!!

[ShaunTheWhite]

Hurray!!! The taos ski valley needs more money so they suck up to us boarders so they make more profit and they also know snowboarding has gotten much more mainstreem. hurray for money making!!

as long as there is no snowboard only hills there should be no more only ski areas

all the snowboard haters should learn from taos
