https://solomedicalsupply.com/2024/08/07/gw3b773qzjx Sherman R. Poppen, one of the biggest names in the development of snowboarding, has died at the age of 89.
Back in 1965, while living in Michigan, Poppen decided to nail his daughter’s skis together to create what he named a ‘Snurfer’. Then later, working with a local manufacturer, his invention was mass produced and for sale in shops by Christmas 1966. The first-ever World Snurfing Competition was staged two years later.
The most famous name in snowboarding, Jake Burton, is reported to have began the evolution of the Snurfer in to the first ‘snowboard’ after attending a World Snurfing event in the late 1970s.
