A distinct sub-culture, and a unofficial cadre of leadership, has already formed around it.
I think there will be a split, but it will be as a result of the sport taking on its own identity, rather than as a result of the traditional surfcasting community rejecting the wetsuiters. In other words, I don't see a surfcasting "purist" movement arising.
It will happen organically. Somebody will write a skishing book, a skishing-specific website will form, skishing tournaments will arise, etc.
Its a very effective method of fishing and the people participating are usually very good fishermen and they definitely have balls.
