In general, I think fixed equity splits WITH VESTING are the way to go. Probably the optimal split is something like 51/49 (to prevent deadlocking) or 33.3/33.3/33.3 but anything near even is good enough.

  Why do you think this is better than dynamic equity splits?

    Maybe it lets people stop focusing on how much equity they do/don't have (or gained or lost in a given week) and get on with actually building the company ? :)
