In 1964 Sherman Poppen built a surfboard for the snow. It was basically two kids' skis bolted together.
In 1965, he created the "snurfer" a mix of snow and surfer which was sold in toy stores and sold over a million units
In 1970, Dimitrije Milovich, a surfer, experimented with laminating glass and gravel on a board and used nylon straps. His company "Winterstick" is probably the first snowboard company.
