Cross Country skis are something completely different from alpine skis. Built for "sideways" skiing and not something I would recommend for anyone to use in the slopes (even if I have done it myself, but I am an amazing skiier).
For slopes I have both snowboards and skis. Less snowboarding post pack increase of human cubs, it is quite the hassle to manhandle small humans when you are on a snowboard.
For offpist I prefer the board, I also prefer the board in the park, and naturally I don't use my offpist board in the park and vice versa.
One board to rule the pist, one board to park jump, one board to leave the pist and among the trees gliding.

Oh, something new learned today. (y) Seems like their surface, elasticity and and carving abilities differ from what the search engine tells me.

I see, you're enjoying wintersports a lot - not many I know use both skiers and snowboards. But we don't have any possibility to drive them just in our areas, as well. It's very rare that there is enough snow on some usually lawn-surface hills for kids to even enjoy sledding, not to talk about the hassle without lifts and comparable to board down a slope which is maybe 300 meters long, just to walk it up again. :ROFLMAO:

I did snowboard on travels quite often, as well visited Swiss and Austria often for the better possibilities, long slopes and multiple lifts. One can go up the mountain by 2-4 lifts one after another and - if the route is known - board down until reaching the base station for around 30-45 minutes. But it takes again around 30-60 minutes to get up via lifts.

The last 13 years I had not much possibility due to being the only one caring for my companion. (I didn't even have much possibility to stay in hospital and left it after not even 24 hours after reattaching of a body part, lol).

The boots are also completely different where the cross country ski boots look like running shoes in comparison.

That I do! Finding me at an indoors or outdoors ice skating place during the winter (all year around in the indoors cases) is not unusual. So not just skis and boards.

Being outdoors during winter is something I think is just very pleasant, as I myself enjoy seeing the landscape all white and frozen. The crisp air, the sound and smell. Just love it in general :)

As long as you are either bodily active, covered in warm clothes and at least not fully sweated, that might work.
If you're trying to chill, it gets very cold very quick and wet clothes ruin the fun. As such always have a secondary set of clothes with you.

Yipwoof. Off again. ?‍♂️ ? ❤️

Tssk tssk tssk I'd happily give the correct one in that case, were it not already given! ;P

And true. These things do help to keep the personal warmth rather pleasant. Then again. Just taking a stroll outside can be good enough. Yep.. Now I do hope we will be having a good layer of snow over here, somewhere this year. Would love to go walk through the woods at that point. ^^
