I see you are getting downvoted. I work at a mountain. I have done both and I am decent enough to get down blacks and some double blacks on both. Here is my recommendation when people ask me. If you have time to dedicate to learning snowboarding is a blast, super fun and once to get the hang of it easier to do tricks, and extend your ability. If you going once a year, and just want to enjoy your day going up and down the bunny slope, skiing is where you should be.

Thanks for the advice, and I completely agree. I have a feeling that even if she loves it, we likely won't go enough for her to master the sport. Then again, she may become obsessed... So who knows.

I would absolutely agree that skiing is the better casual / part time winter activity. We may end up there in the future...

Thanks again!

I always love to see little shredders on the hill. Good for her for wanting to try, it's awesome. Good luck to her hopefully she will be a natural.
