Today, I started lessons on snowboarding. As soon as I got to the top of the hill, my instructor pushed me saying, "Just believe, it'll come to you!" He said this just before I hit a tree, breaking my nose. FML

Today, I went snowboarding for the first time. I was so scared I passed out. I was only on the kiddy hill. FML

Today, I was feeling depressed, so I decided to go snowboarding with friends to cheer myself up. I fell on the first trail and broke my dominant wrist. FML

Today, I was snowboarding when a skier cut me off, resulting in me colliding with a 12 year-old girl. The girl was totally fine, and I was alright except for a slight nose bleed. I apologized to the girl, then her mom hit me over the back with a ski pole as I snowboarded away. FML

Today, I went skiing. Trying to show off to some inexperienced skiers, I flew past them at my top speed, a bracket snapped off my boot and I slid on my face for about 30 metres. FML

Today, I went skiing with a friend of mine. He went first. I heard a loud *THUD* and went to investigate. When I went past him, he yelled, "I ran into a tree. I don't feel so good!" He said it in such a defeated and humorous way, that I crashed into a tree myself because I couldn't stop laughing. FML

Today, I went sledding with my friends. I said I was tired and didn't want to go, but they press-ganged me into it. I ended up sledding right into a tree, fracturing my leg, and scraping up my entire face. FML

Today, I went snowboarding and fell backwards, hitting my head on a patch of ice. When I got home, I told my brother I thought I might have a concussion. He told me I should be a man and suck it, swiftly smacking my head, causing me to pass out. FML

Today, I was skiing really fast and there was a sign saying 'Slow Down'. Feeling rather good about myself I decided to jump over the sign. Whilst jumping, however, I caught my ski tips on the sign and went face first into the ground. Hard. FML

Today, it snowed. So, a guy I like and I decided to go sledding. I really wanted to impress him by going down the hill and casually slowing down at the bottom right at his feet. Instead, I crashed into him and broke his ankle. FML

Snowboarding is the best sport ever, but your instructor is an ass. you should begin at a small hill, practising your turns and speed. fyl

Oh no! Snowboarding is not like riding a bike. The instructor should have known better. What if you sustained a greater injury? I'm sorry OP. Hope this hasn't totally ruined the sport for you :(

Snowboarding is very simple. Just go that way very fast. If something gets in your way, turn.

Your broken nose will heal; but the instructor and his company's bank account won't ever see the money your lawsuit brings you again.

it is fun :) I do enjoy skiing more than snowboarding. however in regards to OP, the instructor didn't seem very professional (from what I gather from the post) I suggest getting a different instructor and don't give up! I've sustained plenty of injuries from both skiing and boarding. you just have to suck it up and keep trying if it's something you really want :)
