I believe that the number of people that would love to have a Backcountry Snowboard/Splitboard activity type are not properly represented in this format. I only learned that this forum exists because I emailed support directly, asking that this activity type be created. Many comments have already explained several great reasons to add splitboarding as an activity type. But I'll add one more: Snowboarders are already banned from several excellent ski resorts across the globe; by not adding a splitboarding activity type, it looks like Strava also prioritizes skiers over snowboarders. 😞
It's wild to me how many different activities you can log on Strava but not Splitboarding. Velomobile? Racquetball? Squash? After over a decade they added trail running and gravel biking. Which are not technically different than a run or bike ride. Splitboarding is not snowboarding, and it is closest to backcountry skiing, but most skiiers don't put their skis together to make it a single plank.
I've sent emails, and tweets over the years with no response from the overlords at Strava.
