Snakeboard

A snakeboard (also called streetboard, or "pivotboard") is a board that was invented in 1989 by James Fisher and Oliver Macleod Smith. It evolved from the original skateboard, and brought with it elements of snowboards and surfboards. The original version was built utilising square wooden boards, an old roller skate and a piece of plumbing pipe. Many variants were built before manufacturing trucks from plastic. Wheels are attached to the footplates via a form of "truck", as they are with regular skateboards.
