My son easily crossed over to the dark side (skier to boarder) and said how easy the transition was. However he tried to go back to skiing, just for fun and said how hard it was. Next I want to see Jonathan trying to board with one on each foot. He would probably make that look easy too.

    I grew up skiing, and switched to a board when I was 19. I taught both for years on several different mountains, (AASI & PSIA certified), and I feel like skiing is easier to learn the basics but harder to be good at, whereas snowboarding is hard to learn the basics but easy to progress at. The body mechanics are a little more complicated on skis. After you learn that your body should work as "one," starting at the bottom, on a snowboard, it's easy to get really good at!

    For any of you new skiers out there, something that I didn't understand and couldn't grasp was how to turn without snowplowing while thinking about putting more pressure on one foot than the other. Until I followed behind my brother and realized the key to turning is in the initiation. What worked for me was watching my friend turn and noticed that if you want to turn right you slightly offset your right foot forward and slide your left foot back which naturally rotates your hips and gets you moving right. The same idea to go left, move your left foot slightly forward and slide your right foot back to rotate your hips, and start moving left. Also, BEND those knees a little bit, it helps you turn and stop. No stiff planks flying down the mountain. Stopping is as easy as performing an exaggerated turn using the same technique, which wouldn't you know it, is the beginning to a hockey stop.

    As difficult and uncomfortable it appeared just think of the result if I were teaching. He would spend a good 15 minutes gertting orientd to equipment, doing static exercises to introduce skills use flat land to develop movement, walking, gliding ,skating. Develop a sense of turning before using lifts either wedge turns or step turning get you on and off lifts safely every time. Imaging the different posture on that first run instead of awkwardly bent at the waist defensively crouched legs in agony, having a taller stance where feet are active beneath the body, stance controls skis with ankle's flexed, legs long weight bearing surfaces in all joints are in nominal load bearing positions= standing up. On our first run I am confident we would be demonstrating parallel christy turns. After a few runs we would be exploring carving, turn shaping, considering his athleticism and experience in competition prepare for intermediate skiing mountain exploration, mileage. Sad to see a pro going through the school of hard knocks... good slapstick though.

    I’ve skied since age 10, now age 78. Yup that dates me to before release bindings. I’ve never snow boarded. I taught skiing for a number of years as well. It is obvious that you are in great shape, that your snow boarding experience gives you a natural understanding of edge control for speed and direction control. It’s also clear that weighting on a board vs. skis is much different. For the first day out you did very well and all your related experience should get you into full parallel skiing with just a few more hours of practice. An instructor could put a lot of polish on your style in an hour or two. I hope you keep at it and come over from the dark side to stay in the light now that you’ve experienced it! 😎⛷

    Hey Johnathan, Really great skiing for a first day! I am very impressed how you put weight on the outside ski in the middle and end of a turn. This is something, that beginner skiers normally cannot accomplish immediately. I noticed, that you generally need to shift your weight more forward to gain more control. In the video I've seen additionaly a few situations where you get "stuck" in a turn and go across the whole ski run. There you need to actively put weight on the front of your new outside ski so you can initiate the next turn. If you manage this, skiing will hopefully be less scary, as you fully control the ski.

    I’m 30 and just learned to ski in December and omg haha. Kudos for just going for it. To others who want to learn: take a lesson! Your legs will thank you for it. Pizza/wedge/A-stance is helpful in the beginning but it’s really tough physically because you’re fighting the shape of the skis. I ain’t an expert after three lessons, but learning parallel is SO MUCH EASIER.

    It’s incredible no matter how good a person is at skiing, going from skis to snowboard is truly a starting all over experience. I can’t speak for ‘native’ snowboarders trying skiing but it appears to be similarly a humbling experience. As a skier myself, after trying the snowboard thing once, I have no desire to do it again. Lolz.

    Small tip for getting on lifts: keep your poles in one hand. I usually do right as I prefer to load on the left side of chairs. Wait for the chair to tap your legs to sit. Also, I recommend learning to keep your skis parallel before leaving the bunny hill if you are a teen/adult learning. The faster you can learn to control your skis, the easier it is to unlearn the snowplow method, which is a hinderance beyond bunny hill skiing. Learn to flatten and dig the edges of the skis, and once you are comfortable with both, start making turns. Once you can make it down the bunny hill with no snowplowing three times, you are ready for the larger runs. If you need to fall, fall up the hill if you can. Most injuries on-piste I've seen occur when you do not fall up the hill. Keep in mind falling down the hill will hit you harder. You should learn this before you make a single "pizza, french fry" exercise. Also, the most important tip: keep it fun!

    As a snowboarder who picked up skiing to become a kids ski instructor, the key is trying to keep your upper body quiet. Standing straight with knees slightly bent.

    As someone who started as a skier turned snowboarder, much is different but a lot stays the same. Coming up before a turn and lowering yourself for instance is something lots of people fail to understand when starting both these sports. (this gives you a better body position and will smoothen the ride). The weird thing about skiing is that your feet are both moving, a thing to watch out for is not crossing them over each other. Last thing you must understand while skiing is that you only put weight on the ski that's the closest to the bottom of the slope. A good exercise while going across the mountain is to just try and lift your top foot up. Hope it helps!

But if I'm being honest I enjoy snowboarding a bit more especially in the powder. I think snowboarding has more of a learning curve getting started, and maybe a little more difficulty all in all. But it definitely can be a lot of fun.

    I know this video is a year old, but I loved it so much! It was great seeing Johnathan on skis for a change. Tips for learning how to ski: always lean downhill and make sure your shins are always pressed into the front of your boot. “Sit on the barstool”; always keep your knees bent like your about to sit. When you’re standing still, lift one ski off the ground and put it back. Then do the same with the other ski. It will help you feel more stable. As you are traversing in a wedge, slowly move the downhill ski parallel to your uphill ski. Always put your weight on the downhill ski. When you are on flat terrain, pretend like you are on ice skates sliding one ski then the other.

    Snowboarding would be similar, although somehow entirely different. Hard snow catches different than water. Powder boarding would be closer. I went to skis from snowboard last year. The learning was a killer. I much prefer skiing to snowboarding. Skiing seems to be more controlled. Less body movement, a much more natural experience. With skis when I'm in a sketchy situation I can generally point in the right direction and hang on. Snowboarding I never seemed to have that.

    Late to this video, just started watching you. For your first day, that was awesome. You had the benefit of years of observation of better skiers, but that only counts for so much when its you on those skiis. By the end, you were really getting the hang of using that edge to turn, but number one tip I can think of is when you lock in that outside foot for a turn, make sure you're turning that other foot too. On skis you have to consciously think about both feet separately. A lot of those turns I saw was the classic "Pizza when you're supposed to french fry". Turn both feet and you got it!

The principles are so similar (two sets of parallel blades to guide forward momentum) except on skis your blades are longer and the terrain is 3-D vs a 2-D plane. Learn to balance, turn, and hockey stop on skates and you'll be skiing blues on day 1 on the mountain.

    Ive been casually snowboarding for years now, but only make it to the slopes once or twice a season now that I have kids.. I've always wanted to try skiing but I can't bring myself to do it since I never get to do. This makes me want to try it even more. I think you did well!

    I would recommend trying it’s really fun. Although I have skied my entire life so I might be a little biased.

    Highly entertaining. First video of this channel I watched the whole way through, very suspenseful. Was SURE it was going to end with a stretcher.

    As a skier who has tried to learn to snowboard, I think snow-boarding is harder. Maybe if I had started out snowboarding, it would have turned out differently.

    That’s how I feel, I’ve been snowboarding for a year and it was so difficult to learn while today I went skiing for the first time and I went down a blue at 40 mph without struggling
