plain and simple. skier. we have a race league and the boarders couldn't come close to winning. the races had to be split to give the boarders something to look forward to. there was a team that won skiing and a team that won boarding. the times generally were about 12 seconds out. thats a life time in ski racing.

I agree with what everyone else said (except that monoboarder) but I am sure the skier would win because even pro snowboarders can't get off a lift without falling, so they would waste a lot of time. Unless of course the snowboarder pulls the skier down as they get off the lift, which happens alot, then it could be pretty even.

Skier...hands down. I beat snowboarders on my telemarks...and I'm slow. Someone on a pro-race set up would smoke the snowboarder.
Also, the snowboarder would have to sit down at every headwall for a good five minutes.
Notable exception to this rule would be any 'boarder racing Bode Miller. If that was the case I'd bet on the knuckledragger.

skier by about half the course, skis are just so much faster and a snowboard couldnt maneuver thru a course at all, and if they werent in a course, the skier would tuck and be way more aerodynamic than a snowboarder could ever be. trust me here, ive had enough snowboarders try to convince me that they are faster, and then i race them and they get smoked, skiers faster end of story

Skis are much faster than snow boards. The skier would win.

Skis go a lot faster so if the pro dudes have about the same level then the skier would win. Please choose me for your best answer.

skis are designed to go faster, so equal ability and conditions, the skier would win.
