A seen in the movie Ski Patrol, in 1990 Snowboarding was in. Mike Olsen built his first snowboard in his high school woodshop. He kept experimenting with snowboards until he dropped out of college in 1984 to form "Gnu". Once an article about the new snowboards were published in Powder Magazine, attention was brought to this new freestyle movement.
The first real ski technology for snowboards was introduced by Burton and Winterstick in 1980. Their new prototype had a P-Tex base. In 1982 the first international snowboard race was held in Suicide Six, outside of Woodstock, Vermont. The goal of the race seemed to be survival. The race consisted of a steep icy kamikaze downhill run, called "The Face".
