While some argue that two is always better than one, there are others out there that will say fight you on it.
For thousands of years people have strapped a plank of some sort to each of their two feet, allowing them to move easier through snowy terrain. Well as the story goes some decided that one was better than two and instead crafted a single plank to fit both feet back in the 1920’s. Modern snowboarding, or “snurfing” as it was first called, is traced back to 1965 when a man named Sherman Poppen tied two skis together for his daughter. It became such a hit that he quickly licensed the idea and sold upwards of a million boards over the next 10 years.
Needless to say, the sport has drastically changed in the last 40 years, with more than just a few straps fastened to planks of wood. Today’s snowboards are specially crafted pieces of equipment, with many varieties for every style of riding. With hundreds, if not thousands, of bindings, boot, and board options, picking out the right equipment can be a daunting task all by yourself.
