Did you get your wood from Shane in BC?? He supplies Lutz, and if it was from him it is likely that you can adjust your bandsaw for the tilt of the grain and then rip. You should be able to see if the grain lines follow the edges or not. If they are off, then split once then line up the split face to your bandsaw fence.

You could do the same thing with a table saw if you prefer. I find the bandsaw much more friendly.
