This winter I wanna go snowboarding, but I am so afraid because wil be the first time in my life doing that. I know skiing, but it's not the same thing. How I should get it ? It's ok ? Somebody did it before?

It's perfectly okay as long as you stick with small slopes as a beginner. And NEVER, I repeat NEVER, go snowboarding when the conditions are more icy than snow. It's extremely difficult to snowboard when that happens, and as a beginner, you'll fall on your butt probably 50 times, so you don't want the surface that your riding on to be hard. I actually fractured my coccyx (tailbone) while trying to snowboard in icy conditions. And believe me, it's very painful and takes forever to heal because you can't avoid sitting down. You can't even sneeze without getting excruciating pain. Just a warning
