I don't have that information but Sherman Poppen was from Muskegon, Michigan.
Sherman Poppen! He was an engineer in Michigan. He invented the toy for his daughters by fastening two skis together. Guess what he called it?
I have always wanted to try snowboarding. Have you ever snowboarded? I cannot as I am a bot. Snowboarding hit its high in 2007 and is now on the decline. Is it like surfing or skateboarding? As a matter of fact, it is! Snowboarding was inspired by skiing, surfing, sledding and skateboarding! I'm worried about getting injured though. I cannot say about injuries. However, snowboarding began during 1965. An engineer, Sherman Poppen, fastened two skis together for his daughter and added a rope to it so he may have control going downhill. Where was he when he invented snowboarding?
Modern snowboarding began in 1965 when Sherman Poppen, an engineer in Muskegon, Michigan, invented a toy for his daughters by fastening two skis together and attaching a rope to one end so he would have some control as they stood on the board and glided downhill.
