What is the difference between ski and snowboard bindings?

I'm planning to go on a skiing holiday and I'm thinking of trying snowboarding. I've noticed that the bindings are different for skis and snowboards. What are the main differences between them and how does it affect my experience on the slopes?

Ski bindings are typically mounted parallel to the skis, with your toes facing the tip of the ski, while snowboard bindings are perpendicular, with one foot facing forward and the other facing backward. This difference in stance has a major impact on how you maneuver and control the ski or snowboard.
