They thought it wouldn’t last.
They thought it was dangerous.
They thought snowboarding would die out.
In this episode, Dad shows his daughter a real news clip from the early days of snowboarding — when ski resorts were seriously debating banning snowboarders altogether. Commentators warned it was unsafe, reckless, and just a passing fad.
As a snowboarder herself, her reaction says it all.
From disbelief to laughter, this turns into a hilarious breakdown of how new subcultures get misunderstood — and how wrong people can be when something new challenges the status quo.
