1950's Surfers from California decided they wanted to surf the sidewalks and streets so they put roller-skate wheels on whatever they could find. Boxes, surfboards, planks of wood etc.

Skateboards originated in the 1960's in California. Surfers nailed wheels to their skateboards and called it street Surfing. At least I think the last part is right
