Question for Snowboarders!?

it really doesnt matter body type to much. im skinny and short and ride park. most of my friends are a little taller or same as me. but here and there i have a few friends who are big boned. hes a "large american" but the kid can rip and tear up some sick terrain. so i dont think it really matters as long as you have skill. and for a first time, all i can say, is you will probably fall alot and you will complain and say this sucks, but KEEP TRYING becuse once you get it its the best thing in the world. as far as diets? idk i mean. i eat anything. ha
