Sherman Popan tied two skis together at 1965, and accidentally created a new "snowboard" with two feet on a whole board. Snowboarding is also called surfing in winter, and snowboarders use a snowboard instead of a pair of snowboards to control their direction.
Snowboarding has gradually formed its own sports form and technical system, marked by the 1998 Winter Olympics, with strict management and strong authority. From two events in the first session to five events in the 20 18 PyeongChang Winter Olympics, it has gradually become one of the Winter Olympics 15 events, and its development has been standardized and systematized.
Has entered the mature stage of the project. In this development process, there is always a dispute over the technical form and development path of "style" and "gymnastics". Its essence is the dispute between amateur skaters represented by the International Snowboarding Federation (ISF), commercial organizations represented by the International Snowboarding Tour Organization (TTR) and official organizations represented by the International Snowboarding Federation (FSI).
From the management right of the World Cup and World Championships to the decision right of the Winter Olympics, the rights of ISF and TTR are gradually weakened. In the end, snowboarding, the most representative project, joined the Winter Olympics in an all-round way, and pushed the development of snowboarding to a new height with the influence of the Winter Olympics. ISF and FSI have merged from long-term contradictions and disputes and embarked on the road of * * * win-win development.
Extended data
Although snowboarding has been widely popular since 1980s, it first appeared in the Olympic Games at 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan. Compared with other sports in the Winter Olympics, snowboarding has a shorter history and can develop rapidly because it is favored by young people.
Snowboarding has never stopped from the Winter Olympics in 1998 to the Winter Olympics in 20 18, and the events have increased year by year, from the initial two events of U-shaped venue and parallel giant slalom to the present five events (added: obstacle chase, slope obstacle race and platform race). Its mass base, influence and popularity are unmatched by other events.
