January 26, 2011 Skiing up hill. Yes, you read correctly - skiing up hill. That's a new thought in my noggin. It kind of goes against everything your body feels and your brain thinks. But that's what you do in backcountry snowboarding. OK - so not only do I have to learn how to ski, I have to do it uphill. Hmm.
January 25, 2011 The creme of the crop for Backcountry Snowboarding Bindings are the Spark R&D Blaze Snowboard Bindings. The wonder gadgets are the piece that makes the whole splitboard system work. They work for cross country skiing into your location, and are what makes your board stiff enough to be able to ride it once you attach it back together to snowboard down the mountain. These bindings rock - and I now own them (enter in the jumping up down here).
January 22, 2011 Up next was the splitting of my snowboard, and the mounting of the hardware the bindings will attach to. THANK YOU World Boards for doing such a great job!
