1st snowboard invented 1939 - video w/inventors using the board

Video of my grandfather, Gunnar Burgson, and the other co-inventors of the snowboard (Harvey Burgeson and Vern Wicklund) using their invention in the 1940s on the snow in the midwest.

Burgeson/Burgeson/Wicklund hold the first U.S. patent for the snowboard dated 1939. For more information Google 'Burgeson snowboard'. Note: there is no sound in this video.
