There are a number of octo- and even nona- generians who ski regularly. This guy's competitively skiing at 100!
Skateboarding just seems like it requires a little more gear. One other benefit of skiing is the ski patrol. If you wipe out on a skateboard, you might not see a medic or a stretcher for hours. On the slopes, it's usually just a few minutes before help arrives and they can begin treatment at the bottom of the slope.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
