Just a plain old we hate snowboarding page.

But hey they have 7 people liking it so far March 6, 2013 at 4:13 pm #666785 karkis 269 Posts thats pretty funny…. i’d think that if theyre so concerned about the time it would take for a split partner to dig their asses out of a slide, they might focus more on hazard evaluation, terrain selection, airbag use…. or moving to a coastal snowpack i guess it is always a slowboarders fault if they get caught in an avalanche, ya gotta point fingers somewhere never summer snowboards phantom splitboard bindings dynafit touring atomic boots March 6, 2013 at 4:27 pm #666786 SPLITRIPPIN 709 Posts I feel bad for that person…If you’re that big of a waste of chode skin to create that page, and doctor up a bumper sticker. Their mother obviously beat them for being the “slow child”. Either that or a splitboarder gave them a good rough shag one night, and never called them back 😥 That person probably still bathes with GI Joe action figures to help them find where the “big brown” shark came from. (if you don’t know that iconic comic reference…I’m showing my age) March 6, 2013 at 4:28 pm #666787 NoKnees 336 Posts Nice fan club page… They are a little confused, and I’m a bit amused, so we are even… 😉 If the transition time of the snowboarder that they are relying on to save their bacon in an avalanche is their biggest (and apparently only) argument against splitters, they have bigger issues to deal with.

Luckily, I have a guaranteed win-win solution for any skier who doesn’t like how fast I can hustle to the rescue. Stay the fuck out of my crew.

Snowboard hate is coming back in fashion… http://kimkircher.com/2013/02/14/the-trouble-with-snowboarding/ Still healing the PTSD wounds from the first skier war. Can’t go through this shit again.

Just so folks panties don’t get too wadded up. Still condescending though. Apparently written by her bad alter ego.

I’m slower digging you out than a skier, really? Wanna try? I think this is just another attempt to get me to switch to hardboots, somehow.. 🙄 http://flatlandsplitfest.com/ March 7, 2013 at 1:22 am #666796 maniacdave 564 Posts That was Pontus March 7, 2013 at 3:14 am #666797 imitationfunk 85 Posts The only thing better than this website would be if MTNAPPROACH resurfaced. That would push us over the edge! March 7, 2013 at 4:43 am #666798 Swampbuster 124 Posts I say we stink up this FB page w/ pro-splitty propaganda. Who’s with me? March 7, 2013 at 4:46 am #666799 maniacdave 564 Posts I’m having way to much fun over there with that dipshit. That was Pontus March 7, 2013 at 4:51 am #666800 Swampbuster 124 Posts Yeah, I think I noticed that. Just remember not to “relie” on your friends when you’re in the backcountry. 😉 March 7, 2013 at 4:54 am #666801 schwalbster 317 Posts Oh geez, what a joke! I say ignore it! If no one gives a shit that site will die down quick! Attention and us going off over there is exactly what they want! After much research, experimentation and consideration, I have decided adulthood is not for me. Thank you for the opportunity.
