[ Laughing ]
I would have to say Boys II Men.

:10:31

[Perata]
Something like this
with,you know,

:10:35
all these generations of snowboarders,
is definitely historical.

:10:39
It's priceless.
It really is.

:11:01
[Narrator]
In the 1970's, snowboarding emerged
from the backwoods ofAmerica.

:11:05
It was an unknown sport with roots
based on freedom, flow, selfexpression...

:11:10
and a lifestyle that offered
a truly unique feeling that defied description.

:11:14
During its brief,
but chaotic history,

:11:16
snowboarding would battle the establishment,
overcome prejudice and fight to keep its soul.

:11:22
And injust 25 years
it would spread around the world...

:11:24
and change the face ofsports
as we know it today.

:11:28
Snowboarding is so young,
and it came about so quickly,

:11:31
that there wasn't really a chance...
:11:33
for the history to lay itself down
and be concrete.

:11:37
Any town you go in in the U.S.,
:11:39
there's always some old-timer
that comes up with a story like,

:11:42
"Oh, I was the first guy
to ever snowboard.

:11:45
I took a waterskiandl cut the back off
andlput a rope on there.
I invented snowboarding. "

:11:48
I'm one ofthose guys
that's, like, I'm not the inventor.

:11:52
I'll never say I'm the inventor.
I'll never say I'm the first.

:11:56
There's always been somebody before you
that's had the same idea or something similar.
