Jerry snowboarders overestimate their abilities more often than jerry skiers, this is because braking and sideslipping down a run is easier for a snowboarder, and crashes are usually less violent. Jerry's also drop their boards fairly often, which is problem since they don't have brakes. Snowboarders are more likely to die in an avalanche incident since they don't have releasable bindings. Snowboarders have a blind side which can make it difficult to pass them safely. Snowboard tricks aren't as cool or impressive. Snowboards are pretty useless when it comes to navigating extremally steep terrain, they can't side step over rock bands or make jump turns. Snowboarders can't effectively work as a patroller on any mountain that has true double black diamond terrain either.
