Skiing isn't faster. Farting about scraping the snow off the slope sideways with a board is slow. With skiing, you have to be moving at a reasonable speed to get the skis to work. Asymetrical hardboot downhill fall-line boarding is effing quick. Boarding tolerates medium ability better - there is less technique involved.
