I grew up skating and surfing, and was a late entry to snow (didn't learn to ski until I was almost 30). I "got" skiing pretty quickly. Last year I decided to try snowboarding (since my 6 year old wanted to do it too). I figured my background would make it easy. Wrong. It is not the same as skating or surfing...kinda, but not really. I find skiing a lot easier for some reason, most likely due to Curt's comment about 2 independent legs.

Does anyone know about the new generation of skis (last couple of years)? They seem to be shorter and fatter with deeper side cuts than my old (purchased about 8 years ago) models.
