A Lot Has Come Along Since the Snuffer Days to Today's Snowboarding

Snowboarding has come a long way since the 1920s, when only wooden planks where ridden down hills. Only thing holding your feet to the planks was clotheslines or horse reins.

Snowboarding has been around since the 1920s, when boys and men would tie plywood or wooden planks from barrels to their feet using clotheslines and horse reins to steer themselves down hills. Modern snowboarding began in 1965 when a toy was invented by fastening two skis together and attaching a rope to one end so that one would have control as they stood on the board and glided downhill. This toy, called the "Snuffer", which combined the two words; Surfer and Snow, proved amazingly popular. The "Snuffer" was licensed and sold millions over the next decades becoming extremely popular and what is today's snowboard.

A lot has come along since the Snuffer days to today's snowboarding. Today's snowboarding is extremely advanced. Snowboards have different flex and strength materials. They use composites and bamboo. What now holds your feet to the boards is called a binding and comprises of plastics, aluminum, or carbon fiber. The clothing is made of materials that keep the wet and cold out and heat in, while also providing ventilation to prevent and wick away perspiration. There are goggles with ultra violet light protection and different lens tints for different condition. Even electronics and controls built right into clothing designed specifically for snowboard gloves and to be compatible with the latest helmets and music players.

It can be daunting to keep up with all of this. Snowboard Gear Review is here to help you with information on the latest, greatest snowboard gear currently on the market.
