This is my setup. What A PITA! gotta bend over, grab the snap, and go click. Shorty, light, stays out of the way.
Personally I think riding without a leash is stupid, and illegal. If you non believers had seen Todd's board screaming down the hill like a rocket at Aspen, you would wear one. Or the look on Paul's face as everybody at the Bomber tent pointed and laughed as he rode the lift by without his board. It can happen to anybody. Both these guys are experienced, kick ass carvers, and it happened to them. Luckily, no injuries, but recovering Todd's board was quite an ordeal.
If I'm gonna have 2K under my feet, It's gonna be tied to me.
Bend over, go click. It's not that hard. The life you save might be a little kid.
