I assume you mean who invented the device. Like a lot of things it evolved, in a sense from roller skates and (skooters) made from soap boxes with handlebars on front and having roller skate (trucks) fore and aft. There is some evidence that Amelia Earhart and her sister made a sort of improvised toboggan ride- that might have had commercial possibilities as a fold-away carnival ride of the slide or toboggan type with cars using roller-skate chassis in part. a modern replica of this device- a display and not a (ride) is on display, courtesy of a local shop class, at the Atcheson , KS Amelia Earhart birthplace museum. It is going to far to give Amelia credit as the inventor as the device was actually a bobsled-like gravity ride, but there are similarities.
