The history of the road gap in snowboarding is one that showcases the evolution of the sport, as riders have continually pushed the boundaries of what is possible on the slopes. the true definition of a road gap is a jump that spans over a road. Here we see Hank Skinner hit a classic spot located in Donner pass, in Lake Tahoe.

The origins of road gaps in snowboarding can be traced back to the early days of snowboarding in the 1980s and 1990s, when riders began experimenting with creative ways to incorporate natural and man-made features into their runs. Road gaps started to gain popularity as riders sought to add excitement and challenge to their snowboarding sessions, by clearing gaps over roads or other obstacles.

As snowboarding progressed as a sport, road gaps became more prevalent in terrain parks, where riders would hit jumps built specifically over roads or other gaps, often incorporating unique features like rails or boxes for added creativity.
