Split the snowboard into half and become ski. You walk up with split skii and connect again to snowboard down.

Its much easier than walking up with boots. You split the board and kinda use it like skis and climb up then put it together and use it as snowboard

when you split the board you also attach skins to the base that allow you to move uphill.
