Snowboarding In Canada – Definitely A Better Experience
What can possibly be the difference between snowboarding in a resort in Europe as compared to Canada? For an ordinary individual, there may be no difference whatsoever. However, I find the difference as glaring as use of petrol in a lamp designed to be operated with kerosene heating oil.
For starters, snowboarding resorts in Europe are very expensive. Of course, there are inexpensive options but very few such options offer an experience that is found in Canada. On the other hand, Canada is a single country and contains so many options that it is virtually impossible for any resort to demand a very high price for the facilities and amenities offered.
Secondly, there are countries in Europe that have a moderate winter. The end result is that there is very little knowledge about snowboarding in such countries. On the other hand, snowboarding is virtually a national pastime in Canada because of the presence of a very strong winter. Of course, things become really cold as you grow north but even the southern parts of the country receive snowfall. The end result is that snowboarding has become a very popular pastime of the masses. On the other hand, I find that snowboarding is still a niche sport amongst Europeans.
Finally, I must confess that there is a cultural factor which is preventing me from enjoying snowboarding in Europe. In Europe, emphasis is on having a good time along with the snowboarding experience. On the other hand, I have a focused primarily on finding more challenges in the world of snowboarding. The end result is that I find these standard resorts very boring.
I do realize that this reason for preferring snowboarding in Canada is just a fancy of mine. However, having learned snowboarding in Canada, I find it difficult to adjust with snowboarding resorts any where else.
