Quote, paraphrase, and citation #2

"Snowboarding is a very recent sport and is similar to Surfing, skateboarding, and Skiing. Likewise, it is not surprising that the origin of snowboarding lies in these sports. Although it is hard to pinpoint the pioneer of Snowboarding, the History of Snowboarding tells us that it was initiated around the 1950s by a few surf and skate enthusiasts who used self-made boards to convey their skills to a new terrain: the snow. At that time, due to the novelty of the Snowboards, those contraptions often resulted in many broken boards and a lot of bruises."

This quotation says that snowboarding is a very recent truck. It also says that snowboarding is alot like surfing, skateboarding, and skiing. Snowboarding also has resulted in many broke boards and a lot of bruises.
