So, who invented the snowboard? Snowboarding can be traced back to the 1960s, and is a relatively new sport. A decade later, Chicago resident Vern Wicklund got the credit for inventing the first snowboard when he patented what he described as an improved sled. Despite inventing the Ski-Pal, the idea of using a hoop-shaped device to teach kids to ski isn't ours. The result was an ur-snowboard that Sims called the "ski board." Competitive snowboarding, on the other hand, was invented partly to sell snowboards. Fred Compagnon is a Hossegor surfer who has invented an amazing new way to ride waves by combining his passion for SNOWBOARD. At the moment, the claimed 100% WR is about an 1:00:52. In 1991, Brett "Cowboy" Kobernik was the first person to saw a snowboard in half, thus inventing the splitboard. The Kid Who Invented the Trampoline: and Other Extraordinary Stories About Did you know that an eighth-grader from New Jersey invented the snowboard? A snowboard with strap-in bindings(duckstance) and stomp pad and/or Tom Sims (founder of Sims Snowboards) invented modern snowboarding. Sherman Poppen is credited with inventing the snowboard in 1965. Some feel that Jack Burchette began the history of snowboarding way back in 1929 by inventing the first snowboard, out of a plank of plywood. I find myself trying to run Snowboard Kids 2. Sims was World Snowboarding Champion (1983), World Champion Skateboarder (1975) and founder of Sims Snowboards and Sims Skateboards. It is hard to say who actually "invented" the first snowboard.
