Ditto.  Former 30-day/year skiier, now snowboarder.  Other plus:
walking around the lodge in board boots is much more fun than walking
around the lodge in mini-casts^Wskiboots.

My knees are blown out from all that twisting during skating and
skiing.... snowboarding doesn't try to twist my knees, which is one
motion I no longer can "muscle" against and yet will basically put me
in some serious injury.
