Powdersurfing - like a very wide bindingless snowboard

Seems like a lot of fun for a hill that's non-lift accessed...and with a crap load of powder.

Probably not a great idea anywhere crowded or with variable, unpredictable conditions. But for backyard+ fun, it looks like it's got it.

Looks like it would be fun, especially for guys with a surfing background. At Kirkwood last year (the first time I've ever ridden large sections of untouched powder) my cousin, who's a surfer from Santa Cruz, suggested that keep my bindings really loose, like just enough to keep from losing the board, to get that surfy feel. You have to adjust your style to the reduction in response but the floaty feel is a lot of fun.
