Skoarding - is new adrenalin sport composed of the two alpine sports, skiing and snowboarding. Skoarding has newly been defined as a specific sport or pastime the main factor being that a proficient snowboarder taking up the pastime of skiing and skiing in the specific style of a snowboarder. The word Skoarding was as far as I can tell made up in 2008 in Ski Utah's 2008 Ski/Snowboard Lingo awards, mentioned then as an entrant to a new word competition, meaning skiing and snowboarding, rather than skiing in the style of snowboarding. URL Skoarding is not a word used to describe two sports. It is an integration of two alpine disciplines skiing and snowboarding. Skoarding was first developed/discovered in 2011 in the French alpine ski resort of Peisey Nancroix close to Les Arcs. Whilst switching their beloved snowboards for fats skis Simon Wilkinson and Leon Baker discovered that after many years snowboarding that placing two skis on in the usual fashion but still "riding" in the same style that they have always been accustomed to should in fact be called something completely new. Technique  It is very simple to ascertain whether someone is skiing or skoarding. Anybody who has been taught to ski from scratch will be aware that all the motion of the turns is done by the legs and lower body. A snowboarder trying to ski, and hence skoard, will initiate all ski turns using a rotation of their upper body. Whilst this is certainly not the most efficient or technically beautiful approach, it certainly does work and is very familiar movement for a proficient snowboarder .
