I also hated how often I caught edges and whenever I stopped on the trail I was putting my ass on cold snow. I gave the board to my brother and he hasn't skied since.
I think the thing I don't like the most is the feeling of being out of control at all times. I bet I'd get over that with time, but I dont think I ever felt that way with skis. The feeling of speed feels different in that respect. My knees are all bruised and I dont ever remember slamming as hard as I did on my left shoulder.
