Our condolences to family and friends of Mr. Sherman Poppen. What an incredible story and journey. It was a snowy day in 1965 and this young father took to his shop and fashioned up some ”monoski” boards for his young children to ”snurf” on the snow covered dunes. Without knowing it at the time, he invented what would become the Snurfer! It was mass produced and manufactured right here in Muskegon and eventually sold a million units around the world. The Snurfer would eventually become the catalyst behind Jake Burton developing the modern day snowboard. What a story and life you lived Mr. Poppen. You will be missed Sir.
