Hey Everyone, Americas’ Most Wanted is doing a story on the Ben Bradley murder. He was a splitboarder that was found stabbed to death after he went missing for a few months, RIP. This was a few years ago; his murder is still unsolved. We made a replica split for AMW, and they did some filming at the factory. It will air this saturday on Fox. Here are some pix of his board. We made a few with the same top, and a few with the same bottom, but it was the only one with that top and bottom combo. Keep a look out for it and maybe we can help solve this!!!!
Tex-he was hitchhiking between Colorado and Jackson. He was found dead outside of Rock Springs, Wyoming. Such a sad story. I hope they catch the sick person(s) responsible for this. Posi vibes to his friends and family.
I watched the episode on the web the other night, I never knew Ben, but after watching the episode I recoginzed some of his friends. A couple of which followed my bootpack up teewinot last may, they ended up kicking the last 1500 feet and we all rode down together. Although I did not know Ben, I know he ran with a crew of badasses. I hope resolution comes for all his friends and family.
This sure makes me think of past debates about carrying a pistol while going out in the backcountry. Its a touchy subject, but not one to be taken lightly.
Keep in mind he wasn’t in the backcountry but hitchhiking. The gun debate will go on and on. I just don’t see how that is going to protect you, unless you pull it out the second you meet someone. Sure fire way to make a lot of friends, including police officers and jail cells. Ben probably had no idea he was going to be attacked that way.
