FAQ's for snowboarding holidays
Is snowboarding better than skiing? - This is hugely down to personal preference but there is general belief that snowboarding is easier to learn than skiing. It is also a common known fact that snowboarding gear is generally more comfortable than skiing (mainly the boots).
When is the best time to go on a snowboarding holiday? Most European and Canadian resorts are open from November to May - ideally the peak times to go would be December to April. However, if you are going in November - we would suggest Lapland/Finland as it is close to the Arctic Circle, if you are are going in May, we would suggest high-altitude resorts, ideally with Glaciers.
