A snakeboard, also known as a streetboard, is a type of skateboard invented in South Africa in 1989 by James Fisher, Simon King and Oliver Macleod Smith. The concept was to fuse the original skateboard with elements of snowboarding and surfing to create a fun riding experience. The first prototype was constructed using two square wooden boards, an old roller skate chopped in half, and a piece of plumbing pipe to join them together. Many variants were tried before manufacturing began. The first boards to be mass-produced were made from a strong plastic nylon known as Zytel ST801.

Freeskates is a type of sports equipment made of two separate metal or wooden decks with two polyurethane in-line wheels attached to the underside by a pair of angled trucks. It is referred to as freeskating, freeline skating, or drift skating.
