Looks like 5% limo, or maybe 15%. Looks overcast in the pics, so it will make the tint look darker.

you are in for a world of fun, Its an experience that can't be compared to skiing. They say
"Skiing is easy to learn; & hard to master, Snowboarding is hard to learn; & easy to master"
Just don't get discouraged the first day or too, its never fun even for naturals.

To me it sometimes feels similar to surfing

and from those two pics our cars are similar minus rear spacers.

I could see why it may be hard coming from that background, I definitely can say blades use alot of the same motions and muscles as when using skiis.(down and out)

All i can say to that is snowboarding is still worth a shot, and like I said don't judge your experience on the first day, because it will be rough.
