I spent every single winter weekend of my childhood up a sleety "mountain" in Scotland braving wind, ice and white-out conditions because my parents loved skiing. I was the youngest Scotsman and possibly the youngest Swiss to have made the crossing from Klosters (Switzerland) to Gargellen (Austria) and back again in one day on downhill bindings. (17 miles including 2 x 1000 metre climbs in SkiBoots without sealskins or touring bindings).
Snowboarding appeals to me despite all of the history I have on skis, but it would never replace skiing.
