Skiboarding, also known as ski or snowblading, involves riding short, twin-tip skis designed for quick turns, jumps and playful manoeuvres. Sitting somewhere between traditional skiing and snowboarding, skiboards offer a more agile and forgiving feel on snow, making them popular with riders who enjoy freestyle features as well as relaxed cruising on groomed runs. When travelling, skiboarding is typically undertaken as a recreational, amateur activity.
ActivitySure can cover skiboarding when you are taking part overseas at an amateur level. While shorter skis can feel easier to control at lower speeds, they can behave differently on firm or icy snow, particularly when attempting jumps or tricks. Having appropriate travel insurance in place helps protect you financially if something goes wrong while riding during your trip.

Destination Insight
Skiboarding is popular at resorts with strong freestyle infrastructure and well-maintained pistes. Resorts across the United States are well known for terrain parks that suit short twin-tip skis and creative riding styles. In the Alps, many resorts offer a mix of groomed runs and terrain park features that appeal to skiboarders looking to combine casual freeriding with small jumps and tricks. Resorts with gentle gradients and clearly marked park zones are particularly well suited to skiboarding.
Many travellers choose skiboarding as a flexible alternative to traditional skiing during a winter sports holiday..
Skiboarding often involves trick-based riding, quick changes in direction and variable snow conditions. Falls, awkward landings or collisions can result in sprains, fractures or impact injuries, particularly when riding in terrain parks or busy areas. If you are injured while skiboarding abroad, travel insurance helps protect you financially if you require medical treatment, hospital care or repatriation.
