Online internet sources pt 1 - Mike Carey

History of Snowboarding / Snurfing

This is a very old website but still very credible I went to a few other sites and they all had the same facts and some even left out a few small tid bits.  Snowboarding started as just a fun thing to do to get the surfing feeling on snow. Many people had the same idea around the same time and they all came together to have the first ever snurfing contest, originally it wasn’t snowboarding it was snurfing. You guessed it snow surfing!  So info is great but it could use a face lift like I said it is a little dated but still very user friendly and easy to navigate.  I would and will use it in my research paper because the info is solid and very simple to comprehend.  For instance one of the first boards made was called "Flying Yellow Bannana" simple and to the point it looked like a banana and was pretty fast on snow for that time. This is a good sight but I will definilty use more up to date sites for the majority of my research paper.
