feck- i just wanted to stand up and be counted as splitboarder. my comment was actually taken from a bumper sticker i saw on the way to baker one day and I thought it was cool. I guess it means it is the answer for people that don't want to ski. The system faces a lot of criticism and is not for everyone, but I love it.

Skis evolved to travel over snow: up, down and flat. Snowboards evolved as lift toys. But lots of people like to snowboard more than ski, so splitboards seem like the best option for them if they are interested in backcountry. I can't imagine slow-shoeing with a snowboard on my back, so if I boarded I'd be on a splitboard myself. I'm just glad I like to ski so I don't have to worry about it. :)

There is nothing to worry about. Splitboarding is easily just as efficient as BC skiing. Skiers have to take skins on and off too, and in that I'm usually ahead of the pack with my board already put together.

I heard that the creator of the website, BCrider, forgot to change his contact info with his domain provider and never received the reminder to renew. Once the grace period was up, someone snatched up the domain name.

 

As stated above, the website has been moved to www.splitboardlife.com
